New Halloween game: pick the apple out of the fruitbowl with your hand

[SHRIIIEEEKPoolingBearBlood]

high velocity impact with an apple has the potential to cause serious eye injury

that is the funniest thing I've read in ages :o

I know it's the DM but it is hilarious!

oh ffs!
looks like i'll have to change my plans for saturday night, i was planning on using cholera infected water, spiking the apples with fish hooks, putting black out blinds up and dropping the children into it from a great height

"tap water could contain water-borne organisms, which may lead to infection.'"

presumably he suggests we don't drink this awful substance either

well exactly!

I remember thinking I lived in quite a posh area the day one of the boys in my Beavers group asked if the bobbing apples were organic.....

:)

bump for the evening crowd

High-velocity impact? The bloody apple bobs away.

I am expecting a little apple related blood this year, DD has a couple of wobbly teeth which if apple bobbing doesn't shift, the toffee apple surely will.

They're suggesting using your hands instead? That's bloody disgusting. Will nobody think of the children.

DD will be sitting in a bomb proof room on Hallowe'en evening, sheathed in bubble wrap and for 5 minutes will be allowed to look at a picture of some children enjoying Hallowe'en. And that's dangerous enough.

Yes, to replace the, quite frankly, lethal game "bobbing for apples" they suggest a similar game "getting an apple out of the fruit bowl"

When i was little instead of apple bobbing in water, mum would string the apples up on door frames.. i always assumed she just didn't want water everywhere, now i know it was for my own personal safety and to stop me going blind. Mothers really do know best! [hgrin]

But then you get potential impact with doorframe if you lunge at apple and miss.

Aaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!! Amazing and Grimma that really really made me snigger

Mind you, if the HSE tracked my DDs injuries they'd make us live in an open plan house with no doorframes. Much more dangerous than fruit IME.

Oh and there was me thinking my mother loved me.. she just tried to do me in without splashing water everywhere! [hhmm]
