Pirate move

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2015 but it's good stuff

Today, I was kayaking with my friend. We figured it'd be awesome if I jumped from my kayak straight into his. Sounded good in theory. One flipped kayak, a pair of lost glasses, and a humiliating swim back to shore later, I'm starting to think it wasn't the best idea. FML

Why on earth did you possibly think that was a good idea? Those things flip so easily and also wearing glasses probably wasn't a good idea either.

Kayaks are usually built for one paddler; how the heck were you planning to jump into your friend's? ...are you sure you weren't using canoes?

Actually, canoes are one-person boats that you sit inside, Kayaks are 2 or 3 person boats that you sit on top of like a normal rowing boat.

Actually you have it backwards, kayaks are the ones you sit inside with one or two people max, canoes are open deck boats. I paddle and it annoys me that people make that mistake all the time

Preach! PS: I'm Canadian. I know the difference between a canoe and a kayak :P

You're just STARTING to think it was a bad idea? You should've known it was a bad idea as soon as you thought it.

Generally if something starts with "wouldn't it be cool if..." it's a bad idea.

Do you at least have the excuse of being intoxicated?

What made you think that would go well? You're a complete idiot.

For future reference, whenever you figure something will be awesome, it won't be.
