A Tragicomedy Waiting to Happen

Jen Mignard, founder of the "Yellowstone National Park: Invasion of the Idiots" Facebook page couldn't believe it when she saw this canoe strapped sideways on top of a Subaru.

If there ever was a sign of these our times, this canoe tried cross-wise atop a car is it.

Cowboystatedaily.com posted this picture. I wouldn’t have thought anybody living west of the Appalachians would’ve perpetrated a howler like this.

Uh, dude… How fast do you think you can go before wind resistance blows your canoe to kingdom come?

(Holy cow! He’s about to take this potential calamity onto the highway–?)

Granted, it’s not the easiest thing in the world, to tie a canoe to the roof of your car. But it’s not rocket science, either.

I dunno. Maybe it’s an oracle. Maybe we’d better do some soul-searching.

  1. He won’t have to worry very long about that wind resistance. Before he gets up much speed, he’ll have knocked out car windows in one or more adjacent lanes and come to a full stop while the police are on their way. 🙂
