  1. Brett says:

    No worse THAN hot metal. There. I fixed it.

  2. Luetti says:

    wonder what is hotter the sand or the ladder

  3. KnightofNi says:

    Splinters in the butt just makes kids tougher.

  4. johnnymac says:

    No Worse *Than* Hot Metal

    There, I fixed it.

  5. Random says:

    There; I fixed the title:

    No Worse Than Hot Metal

  6. Neil says:

    Except, perhaps, for the splinters in the butt.

    Also, the title should use ‘than’ rather ‘then’.

    • Yayap says:

      there are 5 posts b4 yours, you posted 28 minuets after the first post, out of the 5 of them, 3 whine about the title being misspelled, another 1 makes a crude 1 sentence joke about splinters in the butt.

      the amount you contribute to this thread? -47
      fix yourself

  7. Liz says:

    there’s nothing wrong with this. we used to have a wooden slide at home.

  8. Sue says:

    Agreed, Liz. I grew up on a farm, and we played on a wooden slide too. If the wood is smooth enough, you’re no more likely to get slivers than if you slid across your dining room table.

  9. Czernobog says:

    @Liz
    A wooden slide is supposed to be varnished. This looks to have lost it’s varnish a long time ago, if it ever had any.

  10. Kensey says:

    I thought the “fixed” part was the ladder at an angle until I read the comments.

  11. erin says:

    if you hit your brother again, you will have to go down the splinter slide!

  12. Maggie says:

    Wish there was a link here to post over to ‘blogger’. I’ve laughed my way through much of your site….=)

  13. Charalei says:

    “dear god, what’s wrong with your ass?”
    “well, y’see when I was a kid…”

  14. Daniel says:

    Neil :
    Also, the title should use ‘than’ rather ‘then’.

    “then” is right. What’s missing is the punctuation. “No worse? Then hot metal!”, which what they tell the kid after he slides down Splinter Lane and hasn’t yet noticed he has to climb the ladder of untefloned death again.

  15. Daniel says:

    I notice that the kid is barefoot, which makes me think that this cannot be as hot as we are all imagining, btw.

  16. Gilly says:

    I don’t see anything wrong with that — it’s kind of cool.

  17. ikew says:

    nope, not barefoot. Look closer. Those are known as “japanka”s here in (my part of) the third world. They are almost able to stop а tack from penetrating your foot…

    And indeed, it should be “than”.

  18. Ms. Fixit says:

    >.<

    English fail on my part guys, sorry. I’d change it but it would make you all look nuts in the comments, so I’m leaving it up in the spirit of “Fixer-ness”.

  19. Neil says:

    “then” is right. What’s missing is the punctuation. “No worse? Then hot metal!”, which what they tell the kid after he slides down Splinter Lane and hasn’t yet noticed he has to climb the ladder of untefloned death again.

    I thought you were going to suggest that there was a cauldron of hot, molten metal at the bottom of the wooden slide the kids would land in.

  20. Doh says:

    This is a really cool looking slide. The corners are rounded off and the wood looks really smooth….next!

  21. dono1 says:

    This proves it: Legoland is a much better theme park than Chutes And Ladders Land.

  22. Nimrod says:

    Daniel :
    I notice that the kid is barefoot, which makes me think that this cannot be as hot as we are all imagining, btw.

    He is not barefoot he has flipflops on!

  23. dono1 says:

    Agreed, Liz. I grew up on a farm, and we played on a wooden slide too. If the wood is smooth enough, you’re no more likely to get slivers than if you slid across your dining room table.

    (Unless, of course, you have wooden plates and bamboo flatware)

  24. Tym says:

    One always assumes they’re sliding down the wood and not the ladder…

  25. Mark says:

    The ‘saftey’ rails on each side of the slide appear to be a infinate source of slivers however. Don’t think I’d drag my hands on those on the way down!

  26. Demetrius says:

    And… notice the kid’s shorts are made of emery cloth. So, the slide gets a good sanding every time it is used.

  27. THAN says:

    THAN. Better THAN.

  28. dono1 says:

    @Demetrius
    Emery cloth shorts… clever and hilarious!

  29. Fixit says:

    Fine, until the wood wears down to the bolt-heads. Then someone is in for a coccyx injury.

  30. I are konfusd! says:

    @Brett FTW!

  31. Ivan says:

    @felix

    It looks like a perfectly good slide to me too. I guess most of these kids grew up in that bubble-wrapped world…

  32. Bruce says:

    Look at the entire slide structure. There is clearly already a chain ladder in the back, so the metal ladder next to the wooden slide looks like it was put in to replace another wooden slide. That’s the real fixedit element.

  33. dono1 says:

    Bruce is correct. And here in the playground equipment world, we call that a “Sladder”.

  34. Ellie says:

    A rear full of splinters and tetanus shots. Sounds like a date.

  35. alex says:

    it looks perfect

  36. Tym says:

    That was actually one piece of wood before the kid slid down it with the Stanley knife in his back pocket…

  37. schmo says:

    Than… THAN!!

  38. Paddy says:

    “As you slide down the banister of life, may the splinters always face in the right direction!”

  39. Tony Clifton says:

    Sue :
    you’re no more likely to get slivers than if you slid across your dining room table.

    That sounds like a wager to me!

  40. maurice says:

    before the iron age there was the stone age, before that…

  41. wind says:

    why is the ladder even there? it is at such an angle that you could just run up the slide without too much effort.

  42. Pat says:

    Mmmm…butt splinters.

  43. Demetrius says:

    Pat :
    Mmmm…butt splinters.

    Hey! I used to play drums for the Butt Splinters! :)

  44. Maybe a coat of high gloss or polyurethane might ease the ride down. Either way this creation is priceless! ;)

  45. Notan Idiot says:

    It’s “THAN”. Learn proper grammar if you’re going to run a website making fun of others, idiot.

  46. Paddy says:

    Fixit :
    Fine, until the wood wears down to the bolt-heads. Then someone is in for a coccyx injury.

    No, it’s OK…the gap between the planks is a coccyx groove!

  47. pedro says:

    @Kensey
    wow me too…lol

  48. Demetrius says:

    Hey! I used to play bass for Coccyx Groove!

  49. That Guy says:

    @Notan Idiot

    You know how there are always those people who look like idiots for not reading the entire thread? Congratulations. You are officially an idiot, despite your name.

  50. RJ says:

    Don’t see anything wrong with this.. I had played on such slides when I was a school kid.. and nothing wrong with my butt so far.. :)

  51. Smyrnian says:

    Now that’s what playground equipment is supposed to be like!

  52. Smyrnian says:

    I can change the title too:

    Before: “No Worse Then Hot Metal”
    After: “Picture title designed to see how many idiots will say ‘It’s than not then!!1!’”

  53. Rob says:

    NO. Change the title to have proper grammar in it. Geez you people. It’s THAN not “then”.
    I see this mistake more and more. Must the a new generation taking….not many brain cells.

  54. Sqwirk says:

    I don’ think this was broken to start with. It’s made from scratch apart from the ladder?

  55. dono1 says:

    Rob :NO. Change the title to have proper grammar in it. Geez you people. It’s THAN not “then”.I see this mistake more and more. Must the a new generation taking….not many brain cells.

    Er, Rob? Look down and you’ll see that you’re on page two of these comment pages. Rev up those old brain cells and take a look at page one. Oh, and we accept your apology.

  56. dono1 says:

    @Rob
    (BTW- What does “Must the a new generation taking…” mean?)

  57. Li says:

    Its soooo sad!!!

  58. iheartlolz says:

    @Daniel
    Look again. He’s wearing flip flops. They’re orange.

  59. Andres says:

    at lest that kids have a playground where have fun. How many kids in the world would like to have something like that or dont know the funny things.

  60. scott says:

    then …..than what’s the difference? your all idiots

  61. Kota says:

    Ohhhh.. so THATS what splinter A$$ feels like..

  62. Miss says:

    @Rob
    Ok I can see that you must have been typing fast by the fact that you weren’t concerned with things like spaces between periods and the next word and whatnot, but I’ll need you to explain the last sentence, is it something the new generation is TAKING? or is it the new generation TALKING? and I’m going to infer that you mean must BE the new generation… but what do I know I’m only 21 and my lonely brain cell is off looking for another to play hopscotch with…

  63. Ben Tydears says:

    @scott
    Yeah, your all idiots, we cant spel anymore. Why bother with grammer? If you can read it, why bother to right it proper? What’s a mistaek or to? Your all idiots, is all I can say. Agen.

    (Sigh.)

  64. Elkian says:

    I want to say something about fiber here, but my mind has gone blank…

  65. Laughing-self Silly says:

    C’mon kid. It builds character (and immunity). What’ll be your fancy today? Bruises or splinter? (If you haven’t had your tetanus shot lately, I’d suggest the bruises… take the ‘slide’ on the right.

  66. Paula says:

    Yes, the title should be “No worse than hot metal”. Please fix it to have proper grammar.

    Than: 1. Used after a comparative adjective or adverb to introduce the second element or clause of an unequal comparison: She is a better athlete than I am.
    2. Used to introduce the second element after certain words indicating difference: He draws quite differently than she does.
    3. When. Used especially after hardly and scarcely: I had scarcely walked in the door than the commotion started.

    Then: 1. At that time: I was still in school then. Come at noon; I’ll be ready then.
    2. Next in time, space, or order; immediately afterward: I watched the late movie and then went to bed.
    3. In addition; moreover; besides: It costs $20, and then there’s the sales tax to pay.
    4. Used after but to qualify or balance a preceding statement: The star was nervous, but then who isn’t on the first night of a new play.
    5. In that case; accordingly: If traffic is heavy, then allow extra time.
    6. As a consequence; therefore: The case, then, is closed.

    In effect, a dual-processor hyper-threaded machine provides four processors and serves as better test system. ,

  68. Kadee says:

    {A wood slide is} no worse {, but} then {there’s always} hot metal

    “Mommy, I’m gonna be a ninja turtle when I grow up! I know splinter!!!”
