Damn. No time to visit this Christmas as we break up so late. I reserve the right to come fart in your bath at some time in the future. It sounds amazing. Take photos. Does this mean your bathroom is now 100% finished? It was pretty damn near when I came last time.

I seem to get that response from non-cat-lovers, so perhaps it really is the distillation. Or from people with a moral issue against pedigrees, which they are entitled to.

When I first saw my boys I was captivated, but yes I did appreciate their peculiarity. I'd done my research, but seeing them moving was an entirely different matter.

Anyway, I think I missed one of the salient points of the story before.
I went into the garden to tell Mum & Dad who had been at the door, and also tell my story. Next door neighbour also sat in the sun and I heard her doorbell go. "Don't worry" I said over the fence, "it's just Greenpeace." She's a pensioner too. But she misheard me and leapt up out of her seat. Then the satellite delay caught up and she relaxed. "I thought you said the Police for a minute!"

Which made me grin at the idea she would have gone charging to the door expecting trouble. Glad she didn't. I hadn't intended to distress her - it was only after we'd laughed about it I remembered she has a grandson in prison.

Everyone in my neighborhood has their windows open. I know this without even looking outside, because it's game day and about every 20 minutes or so, I hear a booming chorus of cheers. It's like I'm at the stadium in my pajamas!

That's a funny place to put a stadium.

Apparently there's a town in the US somewhere called Mianus (not sure how it's spelled). The Jackass crew went there asking the locals about what sort of things are in Mianus. eg, is there a church in Mianus? Is there a swimming pool in Mianus? etc. It was the funniest Jackass stunt ever for me, although I was half cut when I was watching it, so that probably made it more so.

I love the jackass boys!!

I had a real Beavis and Butthead moment when listening to the cycling during the Olympics.
One of the Malay competitors was called Awang. No, really.

On its own you can get over it, it's a name.
But to keep hearing in the commentary that someone has a wang catching up with them, or a wang on their shoulder or is desperately trying to get alongside a wang... Too much, too much.

Yesterday my new co-teacher asks, "What sound does astronaut begin with." You know the rest.

When ineptitude becomes comedy one can't help but be amused. It's an incredulous, bewildered, dumbfounded, head-shaking kind of amused, but amused nonetheless.

Even as I watch the Keystone Cops run this office into the ground, I laugh and I laugh. What else can I do? :clownsmilie:

"What's mildly amusing you today?"
 
Group hugs.

HA!

A student was in T's office and I told E: I think it's really nice of Scatman Crothers to stop in to talk to T for a while. (He sounded like him.)

Blank look. Well, she's young.

Then M (aka self-proclaimed end-all be-all expert on all things pop culture) comes along. He'll get it.

Blank look.

WHAAAAAAA? Hong Kong Phooey? The Shining? Twilight Zone: The Movie? Chico and the freaking MAN?

Sigh. Youngsters.
