Oh man you had me until I read the page name.

[–] Sciaphobia@sh.itjust.works 98 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

You had me until I read this comment.

[–] sik0fewl@lemmy.ca 15 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It took me two or three more tries after reading this comment.

[–] _g_be@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

It took me until coming back the next day

[–] knightmare1147@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

I had to double check after I read this comment.

This is like that "OneTimeIDreamt" account on Tumblr(?maybe).

This movie came out in 1998, so that eight-year-old is 35 now. 💀

[–] roscoe@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They made a movie about that guy. Don't watch it, it's awful. It was all a misunderstanding. The Jesus is actually a good dude.

[–] maccentric@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

Amazing cast, surprised it’s so bad

[–] parody@lemmings.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

Who recorded this on their TV :D

Anyway yes exactly, also just saw this clip in:

YouTube thumbnail screenshot of transparent bowling ball video by corridor crew

It’s awesome

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 46 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Of course I do. What do you think the ball washers on a golf course are for?

[–] Hope@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think basketballs fit in those /s.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 19 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Try the ones at the bowling alley. They might fit there.

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

I don't know if those wash so much as just shine(o) the ball(o)

[–] meyotch@slrpnk.net 7 points 2 weeks ago

His ball of choice is likely a bit smaller than a golf ball. Should fit fine. Might need a stepladder.

Wasn't that how some guy earned a Darwin award?

Whoever wrote that, they knew exactly what they were doing.

Well you gotta rinse your balls off afterwards. And bouncing your balls a few times outside first might help. Maybe let some other people play with your balls too. Guys, little girls, whoever wants to, really.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah, I will take my dirty balls to playgrounds, so kids can play with them. They really enjoy them, as I keep them nice and round

No need to wash them, if they get dirty anyway

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Well, you certainly want to wash them if you let kids lick your balls, but otherwise agreed.

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 21 points 2 weeks ago

Yep i definitely missed the basketball reference.

Really wondering like did they just not dry afterwards?

[–] ViatorOmnium@piefed.social 17 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Ew! People that are these bad at taking care of their balls should be parted from them.

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 16 points 2 weeks ago

On lemmy I usually read the sub name first but for some reason on reddit I don't

[–] nesc@lemmy.cafe 16 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Unless it's covered in shit, why would you wash it?

[–] criss_cross@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I mean who’s gonna smell your balls anytime soon?

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The neighbors dog is usually pretty interested.

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Just smear a little peanut butter on your balls, and the neighbor's dog will lick them thoroughly.

In the advanced class, we use orbital sanders.

[–] Kentifer@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Sometimes I'm attracted to men. Sometimes I read this shit. There is no overlap.

[–] al4s@feddit.org 24 points 2 weeks ago

Have you seen the subreddit in the screenshot?

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Reminds me of an old joke about a golfer who was so dumb he broke his leg when he fell off the ball washer.

[–] arin@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

My hands after touching the ball... Never again
