Marital Aid or Dog Toy?
I got home last week to see this sight from my kitchen window:
I seriously thought that it was some sort of marital aid, which is why I took the pictures. Upon further/closer examination, I found that the item was, in fact, NOT a marital aid, but some sort of funnel/tube thing. Maybe someone else can tell me EXACTLY what it is, but at this time I am still unsure. Even our neighbors thought it was the same thing I thought it was, and that brought on a discussion of the “Dog Toy or Marital Aid” quiz. If you happen to have a dog, you will most likely do well on this quiz, however, there are still some items that are a bit questionable. Anyway, here is an up-close look at the item I saw in my backyard:
Sorry for breaching that Bilstein/work/personal life line, but I got here by fairly innocent means. Anyway, I just had to tell you that thing is actually a normal person, kid toy. You hold onto the end with the weird funnel-y looking thing on it, and whip the rest of the tube around over your head in a circle. It makes a funny “woo woo woo” sound. Maybe somebody got to spinning it too hard, lost hold of the funnel end, and it went helicoptering into your backyard?

No problem Cami. I just like to keep my site away from linking directly from rallynotes. I have no idea where this thing came from - probably someone just flung it across the grass to near our back porch. It’s a common area, so that kind of thing happens more often than you would think. I think it is hilarious that you actually know what it is!
Thanks for sharing!
