I'm down to my last three 25th anniversary Disney glasses we had at MickeyD's but I didn't pay for them I brought a case of them home from work when I was a manager. Forty years of kids, grandkids and moving have taken their toll, they were actually very good glasses.

Very fragile. Thin glass. Anything will break them. You can break them just in your dishwashing sink. A wrong *clink* here or there and that's all.

My daughter gifted me two Underdog glasses she found somewhere. One has Underdog, the other has Simon Bar Sinister.

Not a one of them broke that way, every single one was an ooops!

I got banned at TOS for calling Michelle O'Bastard a "Wookie." I bitched about it, got reinstated by Jim and promptly left for good after 18 years. (Exactly 18 years. They banned me on my anniversary date.)

I am thinking the bill he had to pay to order it should have been a good first clue something was wrong.

The one that saw G_d for 3 weeks is probably the individual that cracked open an oyster shell and said that looks interesting.

He's the one who walked through a cow field after an overnight rain and saw this growing out of a cow pie:

Not really. That ladder is in no danger of falling the way it is tied off at the top and slanted at the bottom.

Only if the top is braced against the ceiling. If there is a gap between the top of the ladder and the ceiling, it can twist off to the side.

Not with both sides of the ladder tied off at the top.

Not with both sides of the ladder tied off at the top.

If it isn't braced against the ceiling, it could twist the way that @Hoodat describes, for the simple reason that the tie-offs at the top appear to be rope or some other nonrigid material that can only resist tension, not compression. If the individual puts too much of his weight on one side of the ladder, that will cause a torque force on the ladder which will cause the other side of the ladder to relax the tension on the rope tied to that side, and the entire thing could twist around, throwing this guy to the ground.

Not with the way both sides are tied off so close to the man and the ladder.

Not with the pinched nerves in my back. I have to walk up the steps to my house one step at a time now.

If I were still in my 20's,I wouldn't have a problem with it,though.
