Get in the Friday Zone: Aunt Janice Rules (Video)

Posted by Colleen Kane

We are presuming that the woman addressed as Janice in this video by a terrified boy on a rollercoaster is an aunt and not just a sadistic stranger scaring a young boy who she kidnapped. If so, she's definitely of the Cool Aunt variety. Homeboy needs to man up, and Aunt Janice understands this. She also likes roller coasters. Aunt Janice is fun.

I felt really bad for the kid when I first saw this a couple years ago - it really looks like he's about to fall out in some spot. Plus I can relate to being so fucking terrified on the Drop Zone (I'm dating myself here) that I almost peed my pants on the ride. Being scared enough to pee your pants isn't fun in any way. It's kind of funny, but mostly I feel sorry for the kid.

It doesn't look like he's strapped in properly, and I believe him when he says it hurts. I guess I'm just being humorless right now, but I think you'd have to be pretty sadistic to find this video funny.
