    Bullshit. You can fill a balloon with any liquid (I've done maple syrup, wesson, and bleach among others back in the day). Fill a bottle with the liquid, blow the balloon up with air, put the balloon opening around the mouth of the bottle and turn the whole thing over.

    But have you done it with pee? Those are containers that do not expand/contract, your bladder is a bit different? I dont know, I'm just throwing it out there.
    You pee into the bottle first.
    I haven't done it, but there's no reason it would work any differently than any other liquid.

    He means if you try to pee directly into the balloon, which I'm sure more than one drunk and/or teenage boy has tried to do. :twisted:

    I got that part. :D
    I just thought it would be educational for all the miscreants out here to know that it is possible (and easy) to fill a balloon with anything. :twisted:

    So I guess we can say it is possible to fill a ballon with pee but technically Teddys original statement still stands unless anyone is willing to prove it wrong.

    True. It's possible to fill a balloon with pee, but not directly from the tap (so to speak).

    My world has been turned upside down. But now where's the fun of getting some idiot to pee all over himself?

    I guess I'm a little old for peeing in things that aren't toilets, urinals, or drug tests. Maybe I'll pass this technique on to some of the high school kids I work with. Hey, I mean, it's physics, right?

    I guess I'll have to hold onto my little bag of dog poo while outside on Monday. That's an even exchange, right? They chuck an egg, I chuck some poo?

    PLEASE PLEASE DO IT!

    We wanted to lean out the window and drop eggs on the lil bastards who got us going in to our building last year, but then we decided we probably didn't want them to know where we live...

    I was more careful of the mom's with babies in strollers trick or treating. The baby was about 1 year old (probably asleep) yet the mothers had two bags for candy. One for the baby and one for themself (or their imaginary older son). Give me a break! Only in Brooklyn!

    So? Did anyone get hit by a Nair bomb or an egg? I had to work late but my husband told me that only five kids came around this year around 6pm. Do a lot of kids come round the nabe early and we just arent home? I walked home from the Q at 9:30pm and the streets were dead. I definitely thought kids would be out egging people but there was nothing.

    I had Yummy Tacos delivered at around 9 pm and my delivery guy got nailed with what looked like a bag full of refried beans. I felt really bad for the guy and tried to explain that such behavoir was normal at Halloween. I gave him some paper towels and told him to be careful.

    We never get trick-or-treaters anyway since we're in a walkup. I definitely saw kids running around with bags and yelling when I got off the train at aroun 6:15, and saw lots of egg on the sidewalk this morning, but personally I made it home without incident.

    I didn't have a problem either. Just one group of teenagers--not even in costume--knocked on my door. Yeah, like I'm going to open it. :roll:

    When I exited the 7th ave B/Q station, I saw from across the street, a lady (?) in a minivan pull up to a group of teens, roll down her window, and exchange words. I got the impression that she had already been hit by these kids and she was confronting them. One of the kids was able to thread the needle and got her (i think) on the head with another egg... then one of the jackasses threw something heavier at her car (couldn't tell what it was by the thud alone) and then they were off running down the street.

    Strangely, my normally boisterous block was quiet... I'm thinking that the kids that normally cause trouble on my block were out causing trouble away from home.

    I bought 4 bags of miniature candy bars in preparation, since my building is teeming with kids. Then not a single trick-or-treater came! What's up with that? Now I have to eat 4 bags of candy!!! :idea: :evil: :idea:

    Is that hilariously ironic to only me? The taco guy gets nailed by not nair,egg, nor pumpkin but refried beans? Are you sure it wasnt his co-workers?
