I was checking out Valvoline 10w30 conventional oil on Amazon and read some of the reviews. This was the first review. I fell out of my chair reading it.
Not meant for the slip n slide

I bought a jug of this oil to do an oil change on the ol' whip. I had a little bit left over and just kept it in the garage. A few days later my Uncle showed up at my house and said he got a new slip n slide and we should give it a whirl in my front yard. It sounded like fun but my Uncle is known around town for having a bit of a meth problem so I knew this may be a bad idea. Unfortunately money has been a little tight with all this Rona business and my water may or may not have been shut off last week. Since we didn't have any water I suggested we lube that new slide up with some of the left over motor oil. BAD IDEA. I took the first run at the new slip and slide and went clear off the end and ended up with a rock playing peekaboo with my boom boom chute. I was walking a bit gingerly and we decide to pack it up for the day. You ain't never seen a grown man cry like one who just took a lump of old concrete to the chocolate balloon knot. I didn't see my uncle for like a month after that. Turns out he stole the slip n slide from some people on the other side of town and they caught him on camera naked rolling it up on their front lawn. He's out on bail and I still can't look him in the eye. Those tears were real and so are the memories.
