Today I thought I would share a story with y’all about riding in the Jeep with my younger brother. I think I may have shared bits and pieces of this one with y’all but I can’t remember. One thing we do a lot is ride in the Jeep and my younger brother has his all redone. He put bigger tires and all sorts of other things on it.
Over the summer we were riding together just out riding around. No hurry and not doing anything important. When a van pulled up behind us my brother moved over to the side of the road so they could pass us. He did this because we weren’t going very fast as we weren’t in a hurry. He didn’t want to impede anyone who may be in a hurry.
One thing I want to point out before I continue the story. See those tires in that picture above? those back tires that stick out further than the body of Jeep itself? Those things are the devil! Actually this is an older picture because the morning before we went driving we took those back fenders off and changed them.
Anyway, as we were pulling back onto the road some mud flew up and hit my arm. My response was “I hope that’s mud.” I said that because it looked odd. My brother started to laughed and that is when I brought my arm up to my nose. It was horse poop and that crap (literally) was going everywhere.
It just kept flying in the window and landing on my arm, my hand, my shirt, my hair. I couldn’t seem to get it to stop spreading. My brother is about to pee his pants he’s laughing so hard. I ask him if he has a napkin or a wet wipe. His response is “Why would I have a wet wipe?”
I don’t know! Maybe because you eat out all the time and the chance of you having one right now are greater than me! There was a whole of laughter and yelling at this moment. He pulls off and says he thinks he has a GoJo wipe. For those who don’t know GoJo is a brand of hand cleaners that a lot of mechanics. We always had a can in our home growing up.
I was just thankful for something. So he hands me the wipe and I begin wiping things up. He comes around the Jeep to myside to wipe off the mirror and notices that the ack tires have throw this crap all over the side of the Jeep. His response? “Oh my God! Give me that wipe so I can wipe down the Jeep before this stuff sticks!”
He didn’t find my laughter to his problem funny at all. I thought it was hilarious. Honestly, sometimes the grossest things can end up giving you the best memories. We still laugh about this day and we had the best time. Even if we did end up covered in crap.
Have you ever had something happen that was really gross but ended up being so funny? share it with us in the comments below.
I live in a small Georgia town that you most likely have never heard of and I LOVE it! My house is more than full as I am a single mother of four & caregiver to my aging mother and uncle. Lover of all things Outlander. Goes to the beat of her own drum woman.

I’m always the one who, if there was something to fall or step in on school field trips, did. Still traumatized by the “dog poop in the city park gazebo” episode from fourth grade…
OMG! I probably would have lost the contents of my stomach, I have a low tolerance for stinky stuff! The only truly gross thing that happened to me that everyone else thought was hilarious I am unable to share in polite company, however, I accidentally knocked myself out with a frozen chicken once and everybody else got a kick out of that. This was years ago and we had one of those old-timey small refrigerators where the freezer was just like a small square of metal at the top of the fridge. Well as you can probably guess, that roaster was wedged in there and I had to reach both hands around behind it. I yanked so hard and fast that the thing flew out of there straight into the center of my forehead! I had a speed knot for at least a week and everyone who heard the story thought it was hilarious, many of them regretful that it hadn’t been caught on camera for submission to America’s Funniest Home Videos!
No, I can’t say that I’ve had something gross happen that I laughed about.
This is a funny story! I can’t think of anything right now off the top of my head that was gross/funny but I will keep thinking on it.
I grew up in the south and my friend’s brother would always ask us if wanted to go MUDDIN’. We would all get in the jeep and have so much fun. He did something where the wheels would spin and sling the mud up over the rear of the truck and the mud sprayed us.
