Today, I was helping a friend redecorate. She had put up some shelving, that we presumed was stable. It broke, and all the expensive vases and collectables fell to the floor. On instinct, I leapt forward to catch the closest thing. It was not the expensive vase. It was a cactus. FML

I have a cactus, but it's pathetic.It hasn't grown EVER and it's spines don't hurt. I'm sure if it had been MY cactus, you would have been fine :)

Plenty of people would try to save an expensive vase from falling. Its just their bad luck if they catch a cactus instead. you fail.

Yeah, most people would do that.... Actually, I would jump back. But I know a lot of people would try to catch something....

With instincts like that it's amazing you survived to adulthood.
