Well it's obvious the owner isn't from Florida
foampants
Baby, you gotta stew goin'!
jokercat
haha yea i've done that a time or two
Dreadfutopia
why don't people just build houses underwater?
Deporter
I remember swimming with the plastic chairs in the pool. That was a mistake, they turn into razor blades
sometimesicanteven
CrashDownZer0
Thats where they will end up anyways
BobDresden
If you're lucky. Unlucky and they end up blown through a window. Or in the neighbor's yard six houses down.
Geracht
This is stupid-smart.
zenoshogun
They should make big ones to keep trailer parks in when there's a tornado warning in the Mid West.
RolandSin
Thats...... smart. Huh.
ShawnS4362
Does that not make everything rust faster?

Pool furniture is furniture designed for outside weather, it can handle a few days in water.
FreelanceHoneyBadger
Neat.

what if the swimming pool over flows like a lot!

Colin seems like an asshole if he threw all those chairs in there.
Bradx8
I I. I don't understand
level5detentionblockAA23
Standard procedure in florida
wildcatfan4life
If it works, it ain't stupid.
LiRivera
Pretty much. Where's your grill?
isthatriight
It wont rust?
DigitalGuru42
Not any faster than sitting outside in Florida. Most likely aluminum.
OtterlyMagnificent
Plus, better it rusts and has to be replaced in a few years than projectile into the house and cause more damage.
choicebutts2
That's pretty smart.
martymcfyi
Guys I'm sorry i don't live in tropical storm areas .. What's going on here?
doggospls
The guy threw all the pool chairs and tables or whatever into the pool so they don't become potential storm ammunition
NurseCAT
Floridian here: we just toss our patio furniture into the pool so it doesn't blow away or damage our home in the storm

SOAK CHAIRS IN WOOD
MoonyWormtailPadfootandProngsMagicalMischiefMakers
The chairs are put in the pool so they don't fly away in a storm
JoEllenM
As a Nebraska girl, what am I missing?
DarkyAlan
Throwing whatever in the pool that won't get damaged in preparation for a tropical storm is pretty smart, keeps your furniture from 1/2
DarkyAlan
flying all over the place and potentially damaging itself or the rest of the backyard/house. 2/2
MoooCow
I guess throwing the chairs in the pool prevents them from being blown away.
NukeItFromOrbitMan
Correct.
falalaa
Or damaging any other property.
justwatching
Don't forget to throw in a big-ass pile of leaves and the BBQ too.
TheUnsolicitedDuckPic
Canadian?
reportsgonewild
They'll make it there. Don't worry.
Yukonbumbleses
I feel like a really lazy or angry pool kid came up with this... Promoted the very next day
bradwc
Dude!! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOI..........oh....COOL!..LET ME HELP!!!!!
JediYorkies
Stanard hurricane prep in Houston too lol
drunkbs
pretty smart actually
teeps42
Standard procedure- keep your stuff and decrease potential projectiles
ThisIsGod
But what if I want to increase them? Do I just leave out a box of bullets or should I scatter them about the lawn?
dejavu85308
Make sure you include all your driver bits and ear plugs from your tool cabinet as well.
DarkyAlan
I have a pool and we do the same thing, anything too big or inconvenient to be dragged inside that is waterproof goes in the pool.
random1010100
Yep did this alot at all hotels on the coast.
Luminousfox
Why not just take them inside?
tornadosandwich
You want 20 fucking lawn chairs in your house???
L3gionAir
probably no storage place for it since its by the pool all year
freeloaderr
coz there is a butt load of them
Resurrectionist
Because it's fucking hard to get lawn chairs out of a pool
CrunchyLookingLeaf
because they are wet
SamArt53
IDOH. ????
DildoHaeuptling
Yeah, now they are
Vectorman2
Good job, friend, you found the joke!
ElGrandeBanana
Because the storm can take them outside again.
MehWasTooShort
Pretty smart acually
ElGrandeBanana
He has the key
Ninoue
I'm laughing so hard :'(
Fett2oo5
Why? Stack them up, get a chain, and chain the stack to the fence.
blerrger19
That works up until the FUCKING TORNADO rips your fence out of the ground.

bobscollegenohitter
