    Has anyone ever played the drinking game "zones"? Because that round ping pong table would be perfect for it.

    Now that we can see new user's comments, I can see what you guys deal with on a daily basis. There should be an option for Disapprove and delete user's comment.

    i had a project half done a few years ago that never reached fruition. it was a 4'x2' "pool" table, but it used heavy lead disks on silica (like a shuffleboard table) instead of balls.




    i have no idea if it would have worked, but every once in a while i hark back to it, and wish i hadn't neglected to complete the damn thing.

    @Gann:

    that was the idea - to use short cues that were weighted with a lead core for a more precise, heftier feel.

    These are great, I'd love to try that 12 person ping pong table! Also, the couch in 11 looks like it would automatically scoop your change and all other junk from the depths of your couch.

    As a child, when ever I played on the swing, I would either a) Try to swing as high as possible so the swing would swing directly down, I though it was fun as hell. or b) Swing really high and then try to leap across the 6-8 ft rock pit (onto asphalt as I remember. oops)


    I was a daredevil.

    That's about as brilliant as putting those 'Kids at Play' signs in the middle of the road.


    Come on, DO NOT PLAY IN THE STREET.... PERIOD. Even in a cul-de-sac.


    (Background: Parents in my area use those signs to claim the road as a playground for their kids)

    @Shamoononon thanks Rocephin: And we thought we were the only ones with this problem! In spite of nice yards and sidwalks, several families near the top of the cul de sac starting placing an orange cone in the middle of the street and letting even tiny kids sit in the road and draw with chalk and otherwise play in the street. You had to wait until the kids cleared before getting to your house. After failed requests, we finally reported it to the cops, it's against the law here (and many places) to block a street, even with your stupid little orange cone. Problem solved.

    Unbelievable arrogance but even worse, no real concern for their children.
