Talking humor in a nutshell

long time ago, I read somewhere that the funniest phrase is "Baby shampoo" if it is used instead of hello or other form of greeting

try it sometime, it might just work.

Nothing that promises no tears could possibly be funny.

some website on angelfire would be my guess.

(hell, everybody knows that "whale penis" is actually the funniest phrase if used as a greeting.)

I don't know from baby shampoo

but if you add the words 'in bed' to any phrase you get from a fortune cookie, it will automatically becomes hilarious.

Just so happens I had Thai food at lunch today, and kept a couple of fortune cookies until now. Let's test the theory:

'Good things come to those who wait. Be patient.' (in bed)

'You have natural grace and great consideration of others.' (in bed)

05-14-25-32-35 21 (in bed)

Works for me

"Simplicity of character is the natural result of profound thought."

I got this in a cookie when I was younger, and have tried to live my life by it.

Help, I'm trapped in a cookie factory.
We used "Under the sheets" instead of "in bed", back in the day.

I have three fortunes taped to my monitor from various times in the last 6 years or so:

"You are never bitter, deceptive, or petty."

"You love Chinese food."

"Pink will be your lucky color."

Oh Christ, I just noticed Clod's post count and register date, we have another LJ on board!

And she looks way better too, normal sized (and colored) head and all.

Happy Monkey...great fortune!

No way, his average is 12-and-a-third a day, while mine is a mere 3-and-some-change. I cannot claim to rival the postiness that is lumberjim.

And xoxoBruce, wolf, and Undertoad all surpass me in the average department as well, to name a few. So nyeah. :p

lucky color?! does anyone else have a"lucky color" I feel like I'm missing out. I've heard of lucky numbers, lucky socks, even lucky underwear, but lucky colors? how would that work?
