We'd throw them to each other from one side of the house to the other with one hand while playing with Clackers in the other. The early 70's is where the phrase "Well, did you die?" originated.
#8... I suppose that might be funny if we didn't have regular examples of husbands taking the wife's surname and some of the women starting brand new surnames. My maternal grandmother being one of the latter, and yes, with at least one grandson-in-law carrying her name.
I stuck a regular dart in a friend's foot in a bar many years ago. I was trying to hit the floor between his shoes, but there was, um, alcohol involved.
Change the dart to pocket knives and take away the alcohol, and it's mumblety peg, which we played at recess in grade school. Except by the sixth grade, if they had a note from home, kids would be in the smoking area. But all the boys had pocket knives. Yeah, I went to school a long time ago.
Just curious, is anyone keeping a pool on when or who of y'all contemporary prophets lands in FB jail next and for how long? Seriously, I like your humor.
I saw one of those #9's in real life, years ago. Creepily way out of proportion!
It reminds me of a boxing match my Father took me to, as a child. One guy was skinny as toothpicks, the other was a monster of a body builder. I just knew the monster was going to eat him. As it turns out, the monster could only stand there as a target for Mr. Toothpicks. That's when I learned body builders weren't nothing to be afraid of. That thought was reinforced, when Washington State Mr. Olympia 1975?, applied for a police job, yet failed the physical.
Shit. My old ass got back in the gym and was reminded to look at the vain muscle men's calf again. I laugh every time. You should look to confirm my story. Its hilarious, I do not lift mostly aerobic and isometric.
#2 and #7 are both great. Another one that gets honorable mention is #15. I always love it when a person in authority is able to make a snappy comeback to some smart ass who deserves it.
Bert and Ernie really do take a beating in the meme wars, no?
Dang, that didn't come out well, did it.
Lawn darts? Oh, hell, yeah. That shit was TAME compared to ashcans, cherry bombs, m-80s and the post-apocalyptic weed that any '77 grad remembers fondly (sorta...)
Lawn Darts were a favorite when I was growing up. Knew someone that imbedded one in the family car's roof or hood.

ReplyDeleteA woman who won't take her husband's name is less likely to take (only) his sperm.
DeleteThat woman doesn't take sperm. fify

ReplyDeleteSeriously, I like your humor.
