I am quite happy with how disposals work at the moment, and was thinking of more funny ideas for what could happen if things are thrown at other things. I came up with a couple of funny slapsticky usages for tables!
1. Tables should be really slippery!
You know how in movies, if you slide a drink or occasionally a dude in a rowdy bar fight across a counter, they'll slide across it like it was covered with an entire barrel of lube? We should have that! If you throw something, or are thrown onto a table, whatever is being thrown should slide wildly down the surface in whichever direction it originally went in, if that just means slipping onto the other side of a counter, so be it, but if it is a counter, you'll be tobogganing good fellow!
2. Table bowling!
Continuing on with the second idea, if there is anything smaller on the table than whatever is sliding, it should either be knocked off (less chaotic but kinda funny) or fly wildly like it was thrown by a mass driver in a random direction. (very dumb but hilarious, it should have a 1/10 chance of happening if it seems TOO unbalanced to you.) If it hits something the same size or larger it should stop in its tracks, and if one of the two things is glass, have a small chance to shatter.
3. Of course, link it in with the ridiculous physics we have going!
As previously touched upon briefly, if somebody is thrown on a table, either by segway, mass driver, or yadda eider, they should slide across it like a penguin downhill on an iceberg, taking damage from whatever they slide into and knock off like they had been attacked by an assistant wielding said thing, and then land face first on the other side of the table. If you want to be the actual devil, people who slip and bump into a table before falling down should have a chance to either summersault onto it and slide down, or get lucky and just hit there head before falling over like a doofus.
