Today, my wife got the flu. While she was sleeping, I went out to buy her some soup and other things. When I was walking back through the door, she woke up, thought I was a burglar, and threw the closest thing to her at me. What was it? A cactus. FML

Sounds painful.

#3 - On 10/11/2009 at 5:14pm by doggie3

Oh it is, I had a giant cactus plant when I lived in Florida. Was right outside the house. If I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking... ouchies.

#23 - On 10/11/2009 at 6:31pm by Sun_Kissed18

Maybe it's a magical cactus!

#33 - On 10/11/2009 at 7:26pm by Ajjas013

I wish!

#60 - On 10/12/2009 at 9:54pm by Sun_Kissed18

Fourth. No but seriously, ouch. Well, ouch only if it hit you in the face; which would have been really funny if it was on youtube in slow-mo.

#4 - On 10/11/2009 at 5:16pm by JohnE3

Shove a pineapple up her bajingo.

#6 - On 10/11/2009 at 5:18pm by paivarotti

Perhaps it's all part of an s&m thing she's trying? Seriously, try this pineapple idea, i'm sure it'll only make your marriage more of a success.

#11 - On 10/11/2009 at 5:25pm by paivarotti

Pineapple is code for penis.

*Just to be clear.* ;)

#38 - On 10/11/2009 at 10:00pm by ChronicFAIL

good use of the word "bajingo"
i haven't heard that in a long time!

DUCT*

YOU FUCKING IDIOT.

#24 - On 10/11/2009 at 6:31pm by allmidnighteyes

Duck tape can be used in this situation. Duck tape is a brand of duct tape, it's like saying, "Hey, get me a Kleenex." Kleenex is a brand of tissue. So think before you speak.

#29 - On 10/11/2009 at 7:02pm by A7X5989

Yeah but Kleenex has become such a household name that people don't use it to refer only to the brand. People only call it duck tape because they don't know it's actually called duct tape.

#49 - On 10/12/2009 at 3:10am by Kukua

And the duck brand includes more than just duct tape. I've seen masking tape with that brand too.

#54 - On 10/12/2009 at 2:28pm by menschmaschine5

Still, no reason to get butthurt about spelling errors.
Your/You're
Duck tape/Duct tape
In the end, it's you who loses for wasting your time on a simple error.

#56 - On 10/12/2009 at 3:17pm by Ohnothingreally

Those ducks make pretty good tape eh?
And OP, the way you worded this was awesome, I LOLed. :D

#58 - On 10/12/2009 at 7:32pm by Monie_Madness

ydi for having a cactus... don't you know it's bad fung shu

#22 - On 10/11/2009 at 6:25pm by kingkash

But fung shu is funny shit. >.

#39 - On 10/11/2009 at 10:03pm by ChronicFAIL

#25 - On 10/11/2009 at 6:33pm by veliki

Your pain made me laugh. Thank you and I'm sorry.

#27 - On 10/11/2009 at 6:43pm by Six_and_the_Moon

#28 - On 10/11/2009 at 6:57pm by Sweny

#30 - On 10/11/2009 at 7:04pm by the_stereotype

Who has a cactus just randomly sitting around?

#31 - On 10/11/2009 at 7:08pm by DynamicDave

Who DOESN'T sleep with a cactus on their nightstand?? I know I do, protects me from scary dreams and unwanted soup.

#37 - On 10/11/2009 at 9:46pm by spazzyjazzy27

Hahahahahahaha ^^ Funny.

#51 - On 10/12/2009 at 10:43am by missmasturah

my friend has a cactus. why is it so hard to believe that some people might happen to have cacti in their houses?

#32 - On 10/11/2009 at 7:24pm by originalusername

I had a little cactus once. I got it at Walmart :)

#34 - On 10/11/2009 at 9:09pm by jane99

Do burglars in Georgia always come armed with soup and loving care?

You're wife has some wicked fast reflexes to just wake up and be able to defend herself so effectively.
She's a keeper.

#40 - On 10/11/2009 at 10:09pm by ChronicFAIL

OMG I laughed my ass off when I read this. I agree those lightning fast refexes are awesome for your wife to have just too bad that she reacted before she realized that it was her husband bringing her a care package. Good choice for a weapon though lol....sorry OP that must've hurt alot.

#43 - On 10/11/2009 at 11:21pm by Kronic_Kitten

Lmao. A catus? Seriously?

#41 - On 10/11/2009 at 10:32pm by Lynx324

Obviously she's just pissed at being stuck with a needle every night and wants you to know how it feels for once.

Nice. On a school trip years ago some genius decided to see what it was like to sit on a cactus.....He was sent home crying.

#61 - On 10/12/2009 at 9:58pm by f0rever

I can only imagine BOTH of your reactions.

#62 - On 10/12/2009 at 10:04pm by f0rever

Slow motion video of this would be absolutely hillarious!!!!
OP excliams: WWWWWWWWWWWTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!! as the cactus slowly flies towards him.
Her: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGGGG SSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYY after it hits him :)
