My old school “upgraded” it when we left… by asphalting around it.

If you had to work around the hateful little shits all day you’d be trying to look for low key ways to maim them too.

If you truly hate kids, this is what you have to do. Introduce dangers with plausible deniability.

How was I supposed to know the kids would use it to turn each other into meat crayons?

Knees are overrated.

My school had one on dirt. The panels were wood and had a hole in it. Finally, one day, we were playing and a kid’s foot went down there and got fucked up. He was like a rockstar coming into school next day with stitches and crutches.

Here in Germany we optimized the process and just use these nowadays: stilum.com/…/flecto-Karussell-auf-einem-Spielplat…

I only think of one thing when I see “Meatspin”. And I don’t want to search for it… But it gets You Spin Me Round stuck in my head…

Lemon Party conjures the same kind of deep trauma.

That was my spray in TF 2 for a while. Had to pay it forward, right?

Good times.

Like a record, baby.

Got my first real concussion on one of those things. All I remember is that one minute I was flying off of it and the next minute I was at home and I had been there for several hours.

It’s a teleportation device.

The moped plus roundabout was a thing a while back; maybe that’s why they disappeared?

Mums will not let their kids on it. Dads will spun it faster to teach their kids about conservation of momentum.

I remember we didn’t stop those for anybody. You want on? Sprint and jump. Want off? I still have a vivid memory of trying to get off one, being thrown outward, and getting a bar between the legs. Went to the bathroom and found blood in my underwear. Can’t believe I still walked home after that

betterdeadthanreddit ,

That’ll happen after a solid meatspinning. Merry-go-rounds can be pretty dangerous too if you’re not careful.

These were so much fun as a kid and pretty good as a drunk adult too

My school had one of those. One day we got the idea to tie one of the kids to it around his waist and make him run around to spin it. I still remember our teacher asking "where's Willy?" once recess was over, then looking out the window to see him desperately trying to untie himself.

There are 3 nearby, including one at a super crowded park. I think one is getting torn out though.

Meatspin?

The nighmares, they’re coming back

OopsAllTwix ,

Are they comin’ right round?

Is that the Russian lathe video?

I somehow flipped over one of the bars and bashed my head on the deck (wooden on ours rather than metal) when I was around 6 or 7 years old. No stitches, though I don't see any noticeable scar. I don't remember much aside from seeing blood and a headache.

This is why we have braindead adults who run things

This was the centrifuge through which they distilled the kids worth giving a shit about.

Yes, I know centrifuges don’t distill. No, I will not be making any modifications. And, if you asked in your heart, you were probably the chaff spun aside by the Iron Dais of Judgment.

lauha ,

If no adult gave a shit, why don’t we see them anymore?

comrade19 ,

Have you seen the videos using motorbike wheels to spin these things up?
