Members MorePaul Posted July 25, 2005 Members Share Posted July 25, 2005 I'm not really clear on the nature of this manhol(in terms of where the plate was, was it publicly accessible, was it protected/shielded, was there a warning posted,how hot do those things get?) I mean, we aren't talking about an impact injury, but a burn I guess I'd need to see more about the wole deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fantasticsound Posted July 25, 2005 Members Share Posted July 25, 2005 I was wondering the same things, Paul. It's made to sound like this was a manhole cover in the street. If that is the case, then it should never have been possible for the cover to get hot enough to burn someone so rapidly. Even in the heat most of the country is experiencing now.

Members daklander Posted July 25, 2005 Members Share Posted July 25, 2005 What in the hell was she doing skateboarding on a street? She'd probably have sued if she had been stupid enought to ride into a storm drain grate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members the otter Posted July 25, 2005 Members Share Posted July 25, 2005 Originally posted by Dylan Walters Better to be branded by a man hole than a glory hole . That would probably depend on who you ask! Although, I'm kind of undecided... I mean... you can wash one of them off but the memory would haunt you. or you could be scarred for life...physically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tedster Posted July 25, 2005 Members Share Posted July 25, 2005 A lot of folks would think that was cool, to have the word "ON" branded on their left buttcheek. Now, perhaps she'll want "OFF" branded on her right... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dylan Walters Posted July 27, 2005 Members Share Posted July 27, 2005 Bump. This thread is just too much fun to let die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Little Dreamer Posted July 27, 2005 Members Share Posted July 27, 2005 "It literally looked like a brand that had been applied by someone," Well, let's see: there was her, and then there was the manhole cover. Unless the manhole cover is alive, then I guess that only leaves one possibility. Frelling idiots like this are why I'm in favor of flogging in the public square.
