• Why are Balloons fun?: An Interactive Facepunch Mystery.
    30 replies, posted
so a few days ago my family and I had gone to Friendly's to celebrate my mother's birthday (she loves Munchie Mania, an appetizer served there that gives samples of 4 separate appetizers the sell.), and we saw a couple of kids absolutely freaking out over the balloons in the restaurant. and that got me thinking: why the hell are balloons fun? think about it: when we were kids, we LOVED balloons. they were the shit, the bee's knees, the simplest of all simple pleasures. some of us still love balloons to this very day. but our love for them is simply unexplainable. we can have hours of fun with a balloon in different ways, but in the end, we don't even know why we're doing it. it's just a floating ball. how the hell can a floating ball be THAT fun? so I ask you, Facepunch, to help me figure out the mystery of why balloons are so fun. why?
It fucking flies, and it doesn't even have a fucking engine, it's a mystery to an 8 year old how it floats.
Fuckin magic, dude y'know, like magnets
Because they are circular in shape. Everything we love is circular, everything. Balls, balloons, tits, portal. If tits were square no1 would like them.

well i mean, balloons are simply awesome, they hover without an engine, that is a god damn miracle itself, and it has a string attached so you can take it everywhere, how cool is that! and they come in all colors and sizes, i mean you can pick youre favorite color and everything.

Physics is fun. People like to play around with real world and in-game physics.

Sitting and bouncing on balloons was and will remain the best thing ever. And the face you make when you finally pop it is just like "Whaaaaaaaaat."
Whenever I was little, I dunno why, but I would let go of the helium ones then cry because I wanted it back.
