Re: What Has Made You Laugh Today ?
The thought that came into my head this morning.
I was lying on a beach in Lanzarote on the first day of a week’s holiday.
I’ve never been a happy sunbather mostly due to my skin’s reluctance to tan but also because it’s rather boring if you dare not fall asleep, lest you burst into scarlet flames.
It occurred to me that I must look - shiny and white on the dark sand - like somebody has painted a dashed road marking on the beach.

The older I get the more I’m inclined to act my shoe size, not my age.

Re: What Has Made You Laugh Today ?
Reminds me of one of my A-level chemistry lecturers. He sometimes wore a black suit, black shirt and white tie. Once he told us he'd been hit by a car while crossing the road - the driver said he couldn't see him.
In case you're wondering, he was joking. At least I thought he was.
Everyone's ghast should get a good flabbering now and then.

At a distance through a dirty window, the guy that served me at McDonald's drive through looked like Gordon Ramsay. I couldn't help but giggle a little when driving up to the window at the thought of it, then I got there and he didn't look much like him.
We'll always be together, together on electric bikes.

Paul Merton and Julian Clary on " Just A Minuit " radio 4 -- I think Paul has met his match but it's a great match.

He'd be better apologizing to all knobs for lumping them in with that cretin.

Truro Cyclist Mistakes Cat Food for Energy Gel, Causing Crash Which Left Bare Buttocks Exposed.
Truro resident, Richard Headly, is pursuing legal action against a pet food company after a disastrous cycling incident left him exposed and humiliated.
Mr. Headly, 42, mistook a pouch of "tuna crunch" cat food for a sports energy gel during his morning ride.
"I thought I'd lost one of my nine lives," Mr. Headly recounted. He explained that in a rush to leave his home, he grabbed what he believed were energy gels from his kitchen cupboard.
Half an hour into his ride, along the main road, Richard reached into his cycling jersey for a gel. "I was expecting a burst of citrus flavour, but instead, I got a mouthful of lumpy, musty, fishy gloop. It's what I imagine bin juice to taste like. It totally confused me. I thought maybe the packaging was damaged and the gel had gone off, but when I looked at the packet, I realised it wasn't energy gel after all, but my pet Reggie's favourite meal - Tuna Crunch cat food."
Upon realising the error, Mr. Headly began to retch, losing his balance and falling off his bike, causing his lycra shorts to rip, exposing his bare buttocks. "As I hit the floor, I heard a massive rip sound and my bum was freezing cold. I knew what had happened, I'd ripped a hole in the buttock of my shorts, it was so embarrassing. I was left with no choice but to cycle five miles home with my buttock hanging out," he stated. "Drivers were beeping, leaning out the window and shouting 'I can see your bum!' and what's even worse is, now everyone at work calls me 'Felix'."
Mr. Headly is pursuing a legal battle as he argues the pet food packaging should be a different shape from sports gels to prevent the incident from happening again.
The pet food company, speaking anonymously, expressed regret for Mr. Headly's "cat-ass-trophe," suggesting the incident could have been avoided with a simple label check.
Who do you think is to blame?

Why, the citizens of Truro for humiliating the poor guy!
Decency before humour, I say.

Someone posting the word "septuagenarian" in the forum. A word even Shakespeare himself wouldn't know the meaning of, so I looked it up and it means someone between 70 and 79 years old. I'm not laughing at the individual that posted it, actually it's insane to me that anyone has such a good grasp of the English language that they could ever use such a word, but I have noticed that about this forum the whole time I have been here - if you can throw in a really REALLY weird word, it seems people here will do it. The "laugh" I had was more about how that stuff goes on on this forum rather than laughing at anyone personally. Sigh... it's here anyway... viewtopic.php?p=1896522&hilit=septogenarian#p1896522
In fact it seems to be a mis-spelling. I got corrected when searching it on Google to "septuagenarian". So I searched the forum for that version of the word and so many of you guys are at it posting that word. Come on, you must be trolling or copying each other for laughs or something?

The slightly septuagenarian original poster thanks everyone for the continued laughs. I've been chuckling along to Tico the singing parrot recently, here
