Lost my sunnies on the way there one weekend, took the photo on the way back the next weekend. Lost the sunnies talking on walkie-talkies to a mate in the car behind us, popped my head only just outside the window to look behind us (barely enough room in the back of a Ford Lazer with three people in the backseat to turn towards the center of the car to look out the windscreen) to see the stuffed toy they'd gaffa-taped to the bonnet of my mates Pintara wagon. Took the photo the next sunday (in the days when we went to Phillip Island every weekend) just as a joke, talking about cartoons and stuff. I'm not often found protruding from windows (remember the war-veteran on the Simpsons who lost his arm while hanging it from the school bus window? I learnt it was foolish through that, as a young bloke), but it happened twice then.

Once I was running for the train doors and they fell off my head, was kicked reasonably hard and smashed into the side of the train, down the gap. Since it was peak hour at night I left them there and came back on the next day. I came back with a garden rake, scooped them up, not a scratch.

One of the best purcahses I;ve made

got my pair of ray bans in the philipines in 2004-2005 for like $20 australian (authentic yes the philipines does sell real stuff)

Got a pair of Arnett's Catfish sunnies when they first came out. Still got them good as new. They now sit in the sunnies holder in my wagon.

I think the moral here is to be aware that even a brief lapse in concentration while performing a hug can cause things to go horribly pear-shaped in an instant. Keep your wits about you when performing potentially dangerous hugging manouvres and never in public
