belldandy-goddessofthepresent:smallestcitrus:from an askReddit thread about wildest shit you’ve seen at parties Okay I don’t like adding things but I have THE BEST party storySo my friend’s parents went on holiday to Europe so my friend did what any 20-something would do and threw a partyIt was by no means a wild party, a few drinks, some games and bunch of nerds yelling at each other about anime.I’m talking to my friend’s cousin, let’s call him Jay. Jay is a being of pure chaos. He almost broke his back jumping out of a tree and I’m still not convinced he DIDN’T accidentally burn down the only pub in Dover. Jay has had an amount of beer, and he DESPERATELY wanted to impress me so he pulls out a seal bomb that he just casually had in his jacket pocket.Both my friend and Jay worked on a fish farm at the time and he explains to me that this is a concussive explosive used to keep seals away from the fish cages.“wow.” I say, “are you allowed to have that?”“Nah. But it’s broken. See there’s a break in the wick so it’s inert, if I light it it won’t blow. Here I’ll show you.”AND THEN HE FUCKING LIGHTS AN EXPLOSIVE EQUIVALENT TO A QUARTER STICK OF DYNAMITE IN HIS HAND, INSIDE A HOUSEMe: *starts backing away*Him: “Nah its okay see the flame can’t jump the break in the wick.”The flame then jumps the break in the wickThe wick continues to burn disappearing INTO the seal bomb… Which is still in Jay’s hand.Jay then drops it in a panic, right onto my friend’s mother’s custom French grey upholstered couch.THIS was the point Jay saw his life flash before his eyes because his aunt, my friend’s mother is the most powerful and terrifying force on the planet. So he leans over the STILL BURNING EXPLOSIVE DEVICE and knocks it to the floor, he then dives out the back door Me and the three nearest people have legged it outside SCREAMING at my friend that his cousin has set off a bomb in his loungeroom and we waitAnd nothing happensAnd nothing happens.I go to the door thinking, ‘maybe he was right, maybe it was inert.’And BOOMI was standing at least 10 feet away and it was like being hit in the chest.There is a stunned silence as the rest of the party try to work out what the fuck just happenedAnd then my friend just lets out this weary sigh and says “Jay you idiot, they only fail like that if they’re UNDERWATER.”And that’s the wildest shit I’ve ever seen at a party @freakingloki tell us your wildest story.
