Today, while working at my local supermarket, a customer threw a turkey at me because we "should have bigger ones." FML

Dear God, most turkeys weight like twenty pounds. I'm impressed by the customer's strength. I also blame them for buying their turkey on Thanksgiving. Stupid customer.

Ah, Thanksgiving. That holiday makes people do some crazy shit.

#56 It depends if the customer paid 4 the turkey or not.

Ah, the day after thanksgiving. that day makes people do some crazy shit.

If you had a turkey thrown at you today, thank a farmer

If it was thrown at you in English, thank a teacher.

Don't want to sound like a machoman but 20 pounds isn't much.. I mean the average for adult males to lift on biceps curl is about 30-35 pounds, and 20 for triceps, so it seems logic to me. Here come the thumbs down because I'm "too technical" and "wtfnumberzbbq".

Lifting 20 pounds is not a lot. But go and try to Throw that same weight and watch how far it goes. You need a lot of force to throw it. So yeah the customer must have been strong.

I agree it is not so easu to throw, but I'd say mostly because a turkey is hard to grab. Unless they have turkeys with handle in supermarkets... I'm commercializing this right now.

Well if all of the turkeys were too small then it was probably less than 20 pounds

I was referring to how hard it would be to throw. I used to throw shot put in college and it wasn't really easy, and a shot put weighs less than 20lbs.

It's all about the motion of your arm. Throwing a turkey would be similar to the way you throw a football, and no matter how strong you are, 20 pounds is very tough to throw like that

Something about this conversation reminds me of the scene in Monty python and the holy grail when the castle guards are talking about swallows...

It's not about how strong you are. It's about technique. you gotta have some pretty pro skills to be throwing turkeys around.

quit stuffing him with negativity for his corny comment. sometimes making funny comments isnt as easy as gravy.

I probably should've mentioned that I was kidding. Now I look like a complete retard.

Hope your face looks just like your lame retarded profile pic.

*Lisp voice* Well someone needs to take lessons from Mr. Manners....

68- now THAT's what we're looking for. I mean, I still groaned, but at least it had some thought put into it.

Highly overdue but he should have flipped the biggest bird at him possible.

I see that you prepared your fist for an auto-punch. Please do it now.

Or, heaven forbid, an oral sex joke: gobble, gobble.

That's what you do when you just want people to click on your name. When you can't think of anything clever... Really obnoxious

Guns don't kill people. People with turkeys kill people.

I'd give her a pineapple: (##}< what now!?

And is anybody else reminded of the song by Jon Lajoie: "guns don't kill people, uh uh, I kill people, bawk bawk, with turkeys."

I would have Troller, but I was too busy comtemplating all the different kinds of trees.
