Okay, another Armstrong and Miller sketch, courtesy of youtube. Not sure how well the humour in this translates across the Atlantic, but here goes:P

I laughed, but it was a bit like following two languages I don't understand... I got a headache.

Hello,

ha ha this is funny, thanks for posting, DanaC

Thanks Lumberjim for your response, but they use this code along with things like ILU, IWU, INU.. therefore I think it must be some kinds of love languages.

If anyone know, please let me know.

Thanks a lot.
Loss.

They are using the language that kids in england put on to be cool. But doing it with wartime BBC English inflections.

What is "up chocolate way" means anyway?
She's only guessing that 143 might mean "I love you." And "up chocolate way" was a joke, it means nothing. It was just a funny group of words that had the right number of letters.

If possible, please explain to me how is this "the number of letters in each word in a set phrase" work?
I = 1 letter
L-O-V-E = 4 letters
Y-O-U = 3 letters

A woman was in a coma for months. Nurses were in her room giving her ablanket bath. One of them was washing her private area when she noticedthere was a slight response on the monitor when she touched her. She triedit again, and sure enough there was a small recognizable movement.The nurses went to her husband and explained what happened, telling him,"As crazy as it sounds, maybe a little oral sex will stimulate her enough to bring her out of her coma."The husband was skeptical, but when they assured him that they would closethe curtains for privacy, he finally agreed and went into his wife's room.After a few minutes, the woman's monitor flatlined with no pulse, no heartrate. The nurses ran back into the room."What happened," they cried!The husband said, "I'm not sure. Maybe she choked???

I Often Contradict Myself
I often contradict myself.
Oh no, I never do.
I argue with me day and night.
That simply isnt true.

Oh yes it is. Oh no it's not.
I do this all day long.
Oh no I don't. Oh yes I do.
That's right. No way! It's wrong.

I'm really quite agreeable.
I argue night and day.
I love to be around myself.
I wish I'd go away.

So if you see me arguing,
it's certain that you won't.
I like to contradict myself.
I promise you I don't.
