Your favourite urban legend?
August 18, 2011 at 12:50 am
Here's mine:
A Friday afternoon,just after 2pm.
A guy was riding his motor bike north on the Main North Road,towards the Barossa Valley.
In front of him was a flat tray Bedford truck,carrying a load of corrugated iron sheeting.
A sudden gust of wind ripped a sheet off the truck and hurled it towards the guy on the bike,slicing his head clean off.
The bike continued for over 100 metres before crashing through a barbed wire fence and coming to rest in a field,with the headless rider next to it.

I have two stories that might be real (at least according to my friend), but it would be nice to know if these stories are told elsewhere.
The first is how my friend opened a packet of macaroni casserole and found half a mouse inbedded in it. She's involved in the other one also. A dude she knows passed out at a party and his friends thought it would be hilarious to shove a frozen sausage up his ass. His sphincter got massive damage from it and now he must wear diapers.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

I was told about 2 guys who after taking some lsd, saw a big red thing wlak passed their window...so in their triipy state, they decide to go out and grab it and throw it in the hall cupboard...
Anyway, the next day, they go down stairs and remember what they had done. So, they go to the cupboard, and what do they find inside???
A little downs syndrome child... hilarious.
Don't know if it is true...sounds a bit far fetched, but still funny.

Most likely untrue, unless by frozen sausage, you mean tennis ball.

Far fetched.
The part where it seems most unbelievable is if the drug isn't a powerful hallucinogen or they couldn't be coordinated enough in that state to do anything.

Yes, that is true... But, it is still amusing.

I don't agree that shoving a child with down's syndrome in a closet is funny, but I guess I'm just pc like that. I would lose my shit if I saw someone doing something like that. Bonus if they are tripping.
We have a local one that a girl was swimming at the camp pond up the street from me when she got her foot stuck in the rib cage of a skeleton. I found it far fetched that no one would have seen it before it turned skeleton.

Sorry, dude. I have a sort of twisted sense of humor, but it doesn't extend to fucking with kids.

That's not an urban legend. That's a legend from people so bush-league that they make rural hicks look sophisticated.
