Herp, Derp. I'm Helping!

[Eggsnham]

What are times in your life where you or someone you know tried to help someone do something, but failed like when a drunk man fails to fly.

I remember once I was helping my Grandma carry stuff like food and utensils for one of our famous O'Connor family picnics, and I dropped about $100 worth of potato salad and about $40 worth of steak. Epic fail.

I avoid the help of others. When you rely on others, you give them the chance to fail.

That's a pretty good reasoning. I'd challenge it, but I don't feel like being too much of a troll right now

I tried to open a door I wasn't used to. It didn't end well.
I need 5 months and at least 7 dates with a door before I'm used to it!

I agree with you entirely. Every time I've asked for help often with my job/hobbies I've been miserably let down and left infuriated afterward.

manyways, allowing my mother to do ANYTHING is a bad idea.

When my dad is helping me with homework and my mom walks in with a book and pretends to help. She will say something and my dad will pretty much tell her she's full of shit. Married for almost 20 years folks.

Sounds like a productive marriage.

My dad thinks so. My mom, Not so much.

Surely you let them help you, and when they fail... SUPLEX THEM!.

I remember once I was helping my Grandma carry stuff like food and utensils for one of our famous O'Connor family picnics, and I dropped about $100 worth of potato salad and about $40 worth of steak. Epic fail.

Thats some fine potato salad if it cost more than Steak, I mean I love potato and Frankfurter salad but $100.00? thats a lot of potato salad!

OT, My Uncles and I, offered to help my Aunt move into her new place, you know family gotta stick together right!, bullshit... we offered to help because she was moving into a single storey house, therefore no stairs inside the house to drag shit up!

Easy work and we get some beers paid for by Aunt Vanessa.

We get to her new address only to find its located in a hilly place, and two flights of concrete stairs need to climbed (with the help of Sherpa's) before you can get to the front door.

Lets just say I have a fear of concrete stairs now.

I'm a ninja suicide teddy bear, what can I say?
I'm shocked this thread isn't more popular than it is, the small amount of posts are hilarious.

Such as this one;

Dad's like that are EPIC, they make me think of a character* from Two Stupid Dogs when they get all funny like that.


upon searching the intertubes for the vid I've found out the Character is "The Substitute Teacher", which is fitting when you think of MissGina's comment with regards to her father.

We have a pretty huge family, so it was A LOT of potato salad. And my Grandma didn't have that much steak, so we just cooked what we had.

Well you can't be berated for dropping several tons of potato's.

Actually, I was dragging them in a cooler. And I hit a bump, and the cooler fell over, and the steak I was holding in a bowl/plate thingamajig fell out of my hand. It was one of those moments where you just stop time for a second and you think very loudly in your head "FUCK." Or you could yell it, like I did.

HAHAHA, i'm laughing so much I'm crying, you managed to drop something on the floor that was already on the floor to start off with?

 

[DethPenguin]

Most of the time I fail when helping because people give the most vague directions ever; along with giving directions as if you know how to do something special when they're the professional.

"Pick up that thing over there." *Points to something on a desk scattered with 10,000 items*

$100 worth of potato salad? Considering the size of the tubs I can get here for about 50p, that sounds like a LOT of potato salad :s

On topic, I do that sort of stuff all the time. I'm really very useless when it comes to common sense and practical application.

Yes, yes. It was an enormous amount of Tater salad.

Yes, it was quite the epic fail. Even my Grandma said fail.

[small][sub]I didn't even know she knew about 'fail'. Considering she thought 'lol' meant "Lots of love".[/sub][/small]
