    Whew. :)

    Guess this is just another example of a joke flying way the hell over my head. Jokes do that to me so often, I have my own airspace.

    Well, I think it sounds silly to put an "o" in the middle of airplane.

    Hah. You do better than a lot of people who speak English as their first language. :D

    Nice. "Without further adieu" cracks me up. Sounds like something Dr. Smith would say.

    I propose we define firstable as any internet posting that has a comments section.

    ^Heh. That reminds me of The Statue of Limitations (instead of statute of limitations). It always makes me think that the Statue of Liberty has an evil twin somewhere. Maybe all the tourists who hate freedom go to visit the Statue of Limitations. :lol:

    Here's something harmless that really does amuse me (in a good way): The puns spoken by the Crypt Keeper.

    "Hello, BOILS and GHOULS! Ready for your next DEAD-time story? I really like this DIE-rector, he even gave me a SCREAM test!" :D

    Or a certain BBSer who commented on the subject of "statuary rape."

    I mean, I've heard of fetishes, but this is ridiculous.

    Be honest; that's all you, right? ;)

    ^ :lol:

    Oh.....dear.

    That reminds me of a fan fic writer who sent me a story to proof read. The scene involved a character entering a room and being shocked by the large number bowls that covered a dinning room table---only she misspelled it as "bowels."

    I wrote back, "EWW! I'd be pretty damn shocked at that, too!"

    I find this "I'm loving it" McDonalds ad highly annoying. It's grammatically wrong. "I am loving" means I do it only now, this very moment, and shall stop in a second. That message is surely not the ad's intention. Gramatically correct (or is it "correctly"? I'm never sure), it must be "I love it".
    At first I thought it was only a grammatical mistake by the German branch of McD. It was quite traumatic to find the same (utterly wrong) slogan on British McD posters.


    I've also seen the spelling "Americen" (exclusively used by Americans, interestingly)
