Some of these are pretty funny. We need a 5ATF True Story One Sentence thread.

Sample
I went to the freezer for some tortilla wraps and found a dead owl in there instead.
As I climbed into the dumpster to retrieve the vomit covered coloring book that my daughter was crying for me to bring back, I realized I would do anything as a parent.
Six weeks ago, I was pinched by a crab because I thought it was a giant seashell.
My aunt ran over my great-grandma because my great-grandma wouldn't let my aunt borrow her car.
My brother had to do defensive driving for running a stop sign; my 14-year-old (then 13) sister took the class for him.

When one is led to create from scratch a heavenly marinade with the hellish heat of the chile piquine and the habanero, one must wash their hands vigorously before shaking the dew off the lily or else risk a rather embarrassing visit to the ER where staff will be telling your story for years to come.

When having a beautifully prepared traditional Thanksgiving Dinner at a family friends house nothing changes the warm comforting mood quicker than having to ask the hostess were she keeps the plunger.

after peeling potatos for a large thanksgiving group, resist the urge to run the huge pile of skins down the disposal, unless your son-in-law is likely to be willing to dismantle your plumbing without proper tools while on his mini-vacation.

when the seventh grade ref answers the question concerning why your friend's son was ejected from the game with "because he tackled him too hard", try not to throttle him.

Nothing quite ruins the mood like raising both hands, palms facing inward and announcing "let me go scrub in first".

Reminds me of the time I had to call a plumber on Christmas Day after my mother in law got through plugging up the sink disposal with half cooked brussel sprouts.
She looked like a minuteman stuffing grapeshot into a cannon.
I was NOT, repeat NOT, a happy camper that day.

Its best not to tell your family that you won't know whether your going to be home for Thanksgiving till you find out if your high school team is advancing to the next round of the play-offs.

It was an honest mistake

Propping up the shovel and kicking it until the handle breaks, does NOT mean you wont have to continue digging the drainage ditch in the front yard.

After peeing my pants, I jumped into the fountain in my tux to cover it up.
as i felt the effects of the cough syrup, causing me to lose my sense of touch, i realized that the nyquil bottle had opened in my pocket, and i was infact NOT pissing my pants.

My stomach felt light and relaxed as I walked away from The Zipper, though I couldn't help but overhear snippets of curses and blasphemies coming from the mouth of the filthy carnie glumly hosing down the seat I had previously occupied.

As she screamed in pain I sat frozen in my seat after the Japanese chef accidentally tossed a hot hibachi shrimp down the front of my junior prom date's dress, not knowing whether to let her take care of it herself or lend her a helping hand.
