Traffic cones...

Can anyone think of any uses for these? Being rather drunk I just nicked one of these on the way back from "Istanbul" and it is now living in my room. Any ideas anyone?

I have a cleaning cone. I have found it is the perfect height for resting your foot on while shaving your legs in your room

That would be a great use if I was a girl :redface:

Unfortunately I ain't.
Anyone else?

Well, you could still shave your legs!

Oh, and we also used it for "something stolen" in a scavenger hunt

My friend has actually done this. He has 4 cones as legs and a large road sign as the table surface. It looks fairly good and does it's job. :smile:

I'd recommend it.

Being a civil engineering student, I'd recommend making a contraflow on the entrace to the uni :wink:

Nice

Who says students have no common sense and skills at improvising!

If you can't find 3 more, if you've got a high enough ceiling, you could attach it to it, stick a bulb in it, and turn it into a lamp shade. Or, to go with a modern feel, turn it upside down, rest it on the floor and have the light bulb in it that way round...

The table idea's wicked though! :biggrin:

Stick it on top of the CN tower as the biggest student stunt ever :biggrin:

I stole a traffic cone once while drunk but the guards to the entrance of our gated community wouldn't let me take it with me to my house, and I grew attached to it, so I fell asleep by the main gates while hugging my cone

well... use it to hold the door in place... as a door stopper...
or use it as a caution wet paint/floor + DO NOT ENTER sign...
err... or use it to bar the entrance to toilet facilities in uni...
