I have a feeling that perhaps only I enjoy this website, but let’s give it a try: Truck Spills.
It is what it says it is: a collection of images of trucks that have turned over, letting loose their precious and mostly weird cargo. To put it more simply, it may be the only non-porno website perfectly tailored for 12-year-old boys: it’s about big trucks crashing with hilarious and gross consequences.
As I flipped through the pictures of jell-o spills, live alligator spills, and squash avalanches, I tried to put my finger on what was just so great about seeing a lot of one thing strewn all over a highway. I’m still not sure, although I am sure that eight tons of rabbits is way more interesting to look at than just a few rabbits. I also think that it is totally amazing that we don’t package things more — did they really think it was a smart move to transport Sunny-D or horse guts all in one giant container? And did they really think it was a good idea to transport a decomposing whale like that?
It’s also fun to look at the poor highway workers trying to recollect hundreds of spilled live chickens or clean up hundreds of active bee hives.
Okay, I admit this is juvenile. But what else are you going to do on Friday afternoon? Work?
