They probably don’t want him to break his glasses, either.
Or get a Sharpie jammed up his nose.
But I’m guessing TogoFan requires looking after, so his parents seem to be imposing reasonable restrictions.
I caught the front bumper of the ride mower on a tire swing and rolled off as the front of the mower went up and up. THe motor shut off and it slid backwards without damage to swing or mower, but as I rolled off I cracked a rib!
There used to be a billboard for a radio station in Savannah in the 60’s and 70’s. It had a swing attached at the top, and the seat 15 or more feet below, near the bottom of the sign.
They used to hire college girls to sit and swing all day from about 6am to 10pm or later.
“Savannah’s swinging hits” or some such thing was on the sign. My sister did it, and would often complain that the next girl wouldn’t show up, so she had to keep on swinging until someone showed up! 10 or 12 hours wasn’t uncommon for them to swing!
I can’t find anything on the web right now, but I’ll keep looking, even if only for my own edification.
My swingset has two footers poured this evening so far.
Cool story, bro.
I don’t understand this sentence.
Me and my father mixed up 2, 80 lb bags of concrete to make the concrete mixture and poured the slurry into the holes to make the footers. This swingset will have a total of 960lbs of concrete for the footers.
What’s a footer?
$5 at Subway.
But how deep? Did you and your dad use rebar? Most importantly, why on earth would one require concrete foundations for a swing set?
Twerking on a swing set requires some serious industrial reinforcement.
But his parents aren’t allowing him to twerk, pole dance or do stunts on his swing.
Oh hell, I’m done here anyway.
The holes are 2 feet deep just like the commercial swingest at the parks. My set this swingset.
This is NOT some dinky kids swingset. This is a adult sized heavy duty commercial grade 12 and a half foot tall swingset. The top bar is 3 and a half inch big around.
W-T-F.
I have a very disturbing image in my head. It involves an awkward, overweight young man with problem skin, porn star moustache and the thickest spectacles known to man, twerking his little booty off on his stripper pole/swingset. :eek:
You’re not kidding. That pic really strikes the fear of shitstained underwear in me. Those kids look like they’re having a blast, glad it’s not for them though.
I do want to try to go pee while I am swinging really high on the swingset. I would have to swing with no pants. I already tried to go pee while ziplining last year on my 190 foot zipline.
Oh, good. We’ve worked in bodily functions.
I do want to try to drink a cup of tea when i am swinging high on the swingset.
Ever heard the phrase, “Spittin’ in the wind”?
