Chair smashin' fun

Last nite I went to bed around 3, only to be awoken a few minutes later by loud yelling and smashing noises. It sounded like it was coming from our backyard, which we share with another house, so I looked out my window to see what it was. Our neighbors had about 10-15 people outside, and some of them were just smashing the shit out of this plastic chair. By the time I bothered to look, the chair was already in pretty rough shape. The main smasher was holding it by two legs, which were barely connected by a thin piece of cheap plastic. I wasn't pissed, but I was tired, and I figured they were done, so I went back to bed. To my surprise, the yelling and smashing sounds continued on for at least another 15 minutes. I was thinking, how tiny must the remaining plastic shards of that poor chair be that they're smashing? Don't you reach a point where further smashing is no longer fun? I guess not for these guys. It is not possible to break this chair into smaller component parts without electron microscopes and some kind of nanotechnology.Here is a (rather dark) picture of the wreckage I took tonight (a day later - chair shards are white).
