Rach: cornfields? really?
me: yea i think so
Rach: how can corn stab you?
me: what if you fall? or you're sitting down and look up just as the corn falls off the branch? or someone could accidently/on purpose stab you.
Rach: stab you with what??? what part of a stalk of corn can stab you?
me: the actual corn silly
me: a piece of corn
me: as in corn on the cob
Rach: a piece of corn can't stab
me: hmmm.... i wonder
Rach: so corn on the cob before its stripped
Rach: that's what your telling me?
me: correct
me: it's not a fear i actively think about
me: i mean with hay or hayrides, getting it in my eye is my first thought
Rach: which is strange enough
Rach: i'm more afraid someone will trample me
me: really?
me: like in a crowd of people you'll go down and people will just continue walking? thus trampling you?
Rach: no silly at a hayride
me: hahaha...!!! how many people can they fit on hayrides??
me:... oh... the wagon. getting run over by the wagon.
Rach: no
me: in that case i think everyone should be concerned about falling off the wagon
Rach: hahahahahaha
me: no really... where does the trampling happen? i need to be prepared!
Rach: on the wagon by the other stupid people sitting on it with you, or by one of the people dressed in costume
me: how is that possible? like they just suddenly stand up and step on you?
Rach: i'm not saying this occurs all the time. i'm saying that would be my concern rather than hay getting in my eye
me: i'm afraid the costume people will mistake my hay fear with being scared and then throw the hay in my face
Rach: sort of
me: interesting....
Rach: hahaha
Rach: like getting on and off
me: well again, the falling off fear is definitely established
Rach: or a costume person getting too close and me backing off and running into someone else
me: what if i misjudge and fall off the wagon cause my eyes are closed? or someone pushes me?
Rach: its just too crowded on those damn things
me: hahaha!! what hayrides do you go on where everyone is standing? yes they are!! which is why throwing hay should never happen
me: but seriously... do you stand on hayrides? cause that's not even safe
Hay's Safety Issues (according to Wikipedia)
"Hay in general can cause a number of injuries to humans related to lifting and throwing bales, as well as risks related to stacking and storing, such as the danger of having a poorly-constructed stack collapse, causing either falls to people on the stack or injuries to people on the ground who are stuck by falling bales."
