For some reason, a carnival worker subjected himself to an Ask Me Anything on Reddit. Wiseasses descended immediately. Some highlights follow.

Question:

Do you have small hands? Do you smell like cabbage?

Answer:

No I have normal sized hands.

And no I don’t. I’m actually super particular about my smell. I always use the same scent of everything. Right now my shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, body spray, body wash are all from dove fresh cucumber. I’ll probably change it for fall/winter though.

Question:

Could you throw a hoop on the chimney of my house?

Answer:

Maybe? If I had a lot of tries?

Question:

How often do you have to clean up vomit from the tilt-a-whirl?

Answer:

I never had to but the cleaning people have to do it pretty often. We call it a protein spill. Actually one of the cleaning people threw up as well just kind of in front of ring toss and then he went home and another cleaning person came and cleaned it up. We have a lot of sweepers though…sometimes I think they just have nothing to sweep really and they just walk around.
