The Snafu Merit Badge

Two boy scouts sit on an overturned canoe in the middle of a lake, with a third below water  One tries to fix the oar with duct tape  Scout: I think we did something wrong  Their leader facepalms

At least they managed to keep their life jackets on. 


Snafu merit badge - noun:  The Boy Scout equivalent of the Darwin Award.  Given to individuals who, against the odds, manage to survive hilariously abysmal situations spawned of their own stupidity.  They're probably not going to earn anything else, so we might as well give them this. 

Origin:  July 2017; from the brain of a weirdo female cartoonist who otherwise has virtually nothing to do with any kind of Scouting program.  But it's funny, so let's see if it catches on.
