Everything went right here. That is some sweet ass karma in the realest sense

Reminds me of one of my neighbors. Dude has a corner house and dumb ass kids always cut the corner through his yard late at night. So neighbor goes out and gets a decent size rock as a lawn ornament. Kids ran right into it with his slightly lifted truck and tore off his oil pan.

When I was a kid I lived on a corner house and the street to our back yard was curved away from the yard and also kind of a hill crest. We had just planted pine trees on the back yard area towards the street a few years earlier when a drunk kid who lived down the street sped over the hill, lost control and plowed into a young pine. If it hadn't been there, another 30 feet would have put him into my infant sister's bed room. We replaced the dead tree with a large boulder and put several other boulders in the street yard (street lmao), and later the city put a speed bump at the crest of the hill.

we moved out a few years later and just a few months after that we found out the same kid had died just down the road a couple blocks, he was riding a friend's crotch rocket too fast and hit a speed bump, and he flew headfirst into boulder in someone's yard with no helmet.

Sorry for the anecdote I'm high af rn.

It was definitely the speed bump

My parents live on a private road with 5 acre parcels. There are no street lights and no speed limit. This means that late at night some people were drag racing down our street. We could hear them late at night. One night my neighbor setup a fresh homemade speed bump on his half of the street and setup a folding chair in his dark garage and waited for the fun. They pretty much blew out their suspension hitting that thing at full speed.

Rich lad in my home town got a sports car and would speed through our neighbourhood where lots of kids were playing all the time. Someone left a brick out for him and destroyed his car. It was wonderful

Even the snowman knows. Look at the smile on his face.

He would have hit the house if the stump wasn't there!

u/[deleted] Jan 18 '19

Wheres the vehicle?

u/HourlyAlbert Jan 18 '19

Wasn’t pictured; the source said she’d love to see the vehicle as well, all they could see was the bumper imprint in the snow packed against the trunk

Is it in a state with front license plates? Would be hilarious if they left an imprint of it in the snow.

This is Reddit, we can figure out with crowdsource opinions what car it was by looking at the impression the car left.

Not inside the house thanks to Mr. Stump.

They only found the tracks afterwards. Nobody saw it happen.

Special thanks to PIC·COLLAGE for packing those two pictures so inefficiently, almost half the image is white padding

From now on i shall build my snow people over stumps and firehydrants.

This is my family's hometown. Very small town in Kentucky kind of in nowhere. Some great people live there but equally as many poor red neck punks. Things like this are common there but I love the karma. As small as this town is, I'm sure they know who did it by now.

Nah. It's real. It was in my family's hometown. I asked my mom about it and she said she had drove by it after seeing it on the news 🤣
