My frat boy neighbors are annoying. One of the annoying things they do is create rudimentary toys out of wood and then paint "Delta Upsilon" on them. In this tradition, they recently made a seesaw. And then they decided to store it where I park my car.

When I drove up to my parking spot I initially decided to park around it. Then I decided to run into it. Pushing on the gas pedal was great fun. But then the car treated the seesaw as a ramp, and soon I was halfway up the seesaw. There was a brief Oh Shit moment when I didn't know if my car was going to flip sideways or if it would be fun to see if the car could reach past the midpoint and effectively have seesawed.

Wisely I decided to put the car in reverse.
