What Made You Laugh Today ?

[Cindy]

I just got a spam email whose subject was:

<my old first name>, what sort of man are you?

I laughed so loud, next door's dog started barking. Boy, did they miss the boat. (Online blokey clothes shop, in case you're wondering. It went on to ask whether I'm: The Guv'nor, The Pro, The Champ, or The Player? )

I was at work and got a spam email from a 'Russian princess with smoky eyes' she was after a man.'


I read it aloud to my colleagues and got a reply from one of the girls. 'You'd better forward it to Art, he's the only man in the lab'

A neighbor of mine (also of Scandinavian heritage) jokingly asked:

"Is it cold out, or is it just snowing?"

[Cindy]

Does it get cold when it snows? I keep seeing people ski-ing wearing sunglasses

I was chatting with my hairdresser while she cut my hair today, and she's always curious about how my transition is going. At one point, I said "All I need now is a higher voice, and to lose six inches in height..." and she replied (she's quite short, by the way) "If you could give me six inches, I'd be happy." I managed to keep a straight face - it was an effort .

This Boston Terrier...

Who couldn't love this lil' character?

[Snowpaw]

Seeing that purple in the pumpkin loot bag and then realizing it wasn't the headless horseman's horse but his sword I can still use it

The Job Centre phone woman kept on calling me "sir", even after I asked her not to. After a while, it was just funny .

This was actually last Saturday 

One of my neighbors had a couple of her grand daughters come to visit, as the girls were walking (which somehow tends to look like some kind of Vaudeville show) through the lobby, the elder of the two let rip quite a loud stinker

The little girl already looked a bit embarrassed so we were all trying to not say anything, but of coarse their mother who was dropping them off had to scold her "child's name, what do you say after doing that?"

The kid pipes up and starts singing and dancing about... "I farted, I farted, now everyone looks retarded"

We all started busting up    Free entertainment while waiting on the mail carrier

[Padma]

"I farted, I farted, now everyone looks retarded"

...

Oh right, that rhymes in America .

Not really. But in America, not really is good enough for at least one party every four years.

But seriously, I'm going to try on the French Maid costume my sister sent me. If it fits, I may wear it again tomorrow night.
That will make me:
RE-TARTED.
I will avoid legumes and cruciferous vegetables just as a sound precaution.

What made me laugh today was hearing that recording of the toddler crying and saying she's tired of Mitt Romney and Barack Obama. That kid is a hero.

My son had a bit of a bad attitude on the way to the bus this morning. I suggested to him that he should find someone with a good attitude and trade with them. Then, I suggested one of his friends who is a ten year old girl (my son is 6). He said "she does have a good attitude now but, it can turn really bad really fast. It kind of scares me". I thought it was so funny!

Lauren Weedman on the radio. I'm not sure if she's a showman or an author or a regular stand up comic, but she made me lol. Also, chimpanzees. I've been reading a Jane Goodall book, and chimps are good at being adorable and ridiculous.

Realizing what it sounds like when I rock back and forth in my computer chair

I ran into a friend from university whom I haven't seen since she graduated. Much laughter was had.

seeing the dog wake himself up snoring while his head is tucked up into my armpit.

[androgynoid]

Watching my little sister get really excited over her Neopets games. She's 17.

[silly by the seashore]

My dog thinking he was going to do his usual sideways jump to the top of the couch and him just whacking the cushion because he didn't jump high enough and rolling off it.

Dear oh dear oh dear - the BBC need a better copy-editor for the Radio Times. Someone reviewing the new Hobbit film has described Gollum as a "hobbit-cum-junkie" - yes, I see what they're trying to say, but now all I can think is "What *has* it got in its pocketses?"
