It won’t happen every day, of course. In fact, it’ll hardly happen at all. But it will happen, because sooner or later your back will be turned while you’re talking to your neighbor about the new restaurant that just opened where that Tex-Mex place used to be, and your 3-year-old will slip out onto the patio, pop open the screen door, and toddle into the water.

Oh, The Onion. One of my favorite fake surveys yet.
