The end of the Dead Baby Joke run

Me-"What's red, shiny, and screaming? A dead baby with forks in its eyes."
E-"... Child Protection Services are on their way. Have *A* ready."

Save on postage, too!

Cap-"I don't understand why Angelina Jolie feels the need to adopt all these kids overseas when there are plenty of kids over here that need help."
A*-"That's right! Buy American!"

Might wanna watch that wording.

Waiter-"And how would you like your burger cooked?"
Cap-"Ummm, all brown?"

So close...no...not really.

A-"What's the name of that duck guy in Batman who walks around with an umbrella?"
Me-"The Penguin. 'Cause he's a penguin. Not a duck."
A-"Oh. Yeah, that makes sense."

And silica to repel moisture!

K-"I just found Soul Food Seasoning at a store."
Me-"What's in it?"
K-"Little bit of funk, little bit of jive, and a whole lotta soul!"

Proud to claim half this DNA

A-"I know smart...and those kids are NOT smart."

Self mutilation takes a new form

E-"Owwwww! I just punched myself in the face. Man, I feel sorry for anyone I get in a fight with. I punch hard!"

Well that's ok then...

Me-"That was rather sexist!"
KG*-"What was sexist?"
Me-"When you handled me your jacket, button, and sewing kit and said 'Here, fix this.'"

Very punny.

Me-"T*, you lost the milk!"
T*-"I didn't remember you buying any milk!"
Me-"YOU sacked it, and put it in the car!"
ExHub-"Maybe it was Milk of Amnesia?"

And occasionally she comes through.

Me-"I've got a new drinking game for ya. Take a shot everytime ExHub clogs the toilet. You'll be drunk by 8."
Mom-"AM, PM, or BM?"

Toupe...er...touche.

*While giving clues about his Father's Day present*
Me-"It's something you used to have, but don't have anymore."
ExHub-"HAIR?!?"

Me-"You mean rugs?"

Mike-"Uhh, yeah. Those."

Beats "Mustard"

Me-"I'm going to start calling you 'Mikie Wikie.'
Mike*-"I'm going to start calling you "Shut the Hell Up."

Thursday, January 28, 2010

Is there a rulebook?

Me-"A, don't eat w/ your hands!"

A-"Why don't you?"
MT-"Because I'm not a douchebag."

A-"What? There's no letter two!"

Friday, January 1, 2010
