What are some things that have happened to you (or people you know) that are, like, funny?

Example:
I was grocery shopping with my grrrma (translation: grandma) and sister (Joy) one day and my grrrma picked up some cream soda.
Joy: (to Grrrma) Why did you get cream soda?
Grrrma: Hmm?
Joy: Why did you get cream soda?
Grrrma: Yeah.

(My grrrma is kind of deaf.)

Hey, I found it funny.

I remember when I used to be in Cub Scouts years ago. At every meeting, they have all sorts of applauses that everyone does. At a previous meeting, I heard a scout master pretending to sniff garbage and say, "P-uuuuuuuu." To this day I do not know what he was referring to. I assumed it was an applause. At a big meeting with over 150 to 200 scouts, parents, etc. that same scout master asked everybody what applause they should do. I raised my hand and said, "A garbage applause." He asked, "What's a garbage applause?" I replied, "P-uuuuuuuu."

Everybody in the room was laughing their asses off including my parents. At the time I felt like I wanted the ground to just open up and swallow me because I felt so humiliated. This was when I was around the 3rd or 4th grade. But now I think it was funny, even though I didn't mean it to be. As I was writing this I was laughing my head off and that is something that I very rarely do when I write an anecdote.

*I was sitting w/ some friends in the bleachers during a football game, I was a freshman and I was there w/ my friend who was a junior. I was making fun of the cheerleaders like I always do and he gives me this look, I'm like "what?" and he tells me that his girlfriend is the one I'm making fun of....

*I was walking near the washington monument during my week in DC and these foreigners start talking to me "take a picture! take a picture!" i go over thinking they want me to take a pic of them all- theyre like "no! you get in picture!" so i end up posing w/ these people who dont speak english and they take a ton of pics then say "thank you!" and hand me a flower!

ill post more later...

-On memorial day my aunt and gramma were at the cemetary planting flowers. My gramma was waiting in the car just as they were about to go home and the cell phone rings. So she calls my aunt to come answer it but by the time she gets there it stopped ringing.

So my aunt goes, "Ah, it's ok it was probably just Doug (my uncle) anyways."
So my gramma goes, "Well of course it is, who else knows you're at the cemetary?"

Oh God my Gramma says some of the wackiest things, I swear.

-and I'm sure you'd hear the laugh track when I fell UP the stairs on my way to home ec today. Yup, people laughed at me...

-oh, this is great lol...today my sister and I were fighting...so I was hiding from her. We were at my cousins house like we always are and I went down to the cellar (it's like a second living room) cause my aunt and mom were down there...so, for protection, when my sister came down unaware I was down there, I hid on the side of the stairs where she couldn't see me...I'm talking 007 dash. So a light switch for the room on the side happens to be right there, so I flicker it on and off...and you can see her looking like, "what the...?" so I keep doing it trying so hard to keep my laughing in. It was great, she looked so confused.

-ohh, and this can be my shows catch phrase coming straight from gram..."Ashlee, come get your nice, cole (cold) milk."

I'll shut up now

Every time I fall in love with a woman I usually blurt out "I love.I want to marry you.I want you to have my children".I don't think it happened like that with Amanda though thank god.

i walked into school today and two people were singing everlasting love and dancing around my locker

dawsongirl · 06-04-2003, 10:58 PM

I went to pick up a friend of mine from high school so we could go...shopping or something. She told me (and wrote down) that she lived in Apt. #whatever and building 2. So I go into building 1. I knock on the door of Apt. #whatever and ask for Melissa. The lady tells me she's out having ice cream with her dad. We were both confused at the mixup and I left. Coming out of building 2 is my friend Melissa.

I went to the wrong apt but a Melissa lived there!

One time when I was like 7 I went to go call my friend Liz. Well I apparently misdialed, beacsue this lady got on the other end and our convo basically went somewhat like this:

Lady. hello?
Me. Hi, this is Shannon, is Liz there?
Lady. Yea! hold on.
SILENCE (exept a faint sound of a child playing with toys)
5 minutes later I hear the lady yelling for her daughter
Lady. come one, Grandma is on the phone!
(I go into complete confussion)
Little girl. Hi grandma!
Me. *click*

oh and this other time.....

okay, I was going to my friends house, but before my dad could drop me off we had to stop at the store. We were int he checkout line, and there was this guy across from us and he was trying to open this mini freezer where they kept cokes and he couldn't open it. So, this person that worked there came over to assist him,and the guy wanted to check out in that lane, but the eprson that worker there kept telling him that that lane was closed. The guy wouldn'tt ake no for an answer,s o he ened up being helped there.
So, I get to my friends house, nd we are like eating or whatever and I am telling her my accounter at the store and all of suden we hear this nosie outside. We run tot he window and see this guy trying to get into he rmom's car! i scream "That is the guy i was just telling you about! He followed me and my dad!" So the guy keeps trying to open the car door (which was unlocked) and couldn't get it opened. He sees us and starts saying "Hi, i am the meatball man. Want soem meatballs?" and my friends mom is freaking out and is like "what are you doing." So finally she called the cops on him.

Dad: Come in here.
Me: Yea?
Dad: Fix the tv, the color's off.
Me: How so?
Dad: Look at that person's hair. It looks purple. [Points to Kelly Osbourne.]
Me: It's supposed to be like that.
Dad: No, it's not. Fix the tv.
Me: There's nothing to fix!
Dad: FIX IT.
Me: [Fiddles with the color menu but ulitmately sets it back to what it originally was.]
Dad: There. Much better! Thanks.
