Top
10 Signs You Sport Stack TOO Much... |
|
| |
as
written by Amos
Olson
Cody, Wyoming |
|
| |
1. |
“There’s no such thing
as too much stacking!” |
|
| |
2. |
Your hands
move so fast they break the laws of physics |
|
| |
3. |
You’d
rather go to school in your underwear than go without your own
set of cups |
|
| |
4. |
The socks in
your drawer are arranged in a 3-6-3 pattern |
|
| |
5. |
You think “bicycle” means
doing 2 cycle stacks in a row |
|
| |
6. |
When you wake
up in the morning, everything in your room is stacked into
little pyramids |
|
| |
7. |
The words “tipper”, “toppler”,
and “slider” almost make you cry |
|
| |
8. |
You think Emily
Fox must be the coolest person in the world |
|
| |
9. |
Instead of “hello”,
you say “what’s your best time on the 3-6-3?” |
|
| |
10. |
You think the
Egyptian pyramids were pretty cool, but they should have
used cups |
|
| |
Thanks
Amos for making us all smile! |
