One of my favorite things is a funny Quote Out Of Context.

nostrebor · « **Reply #1 on:** January 05, 2006, 01:22:07 pm »

I think this is what you want...

"After those concerts the band's name was changed to Led Zeppelin after Keith Moon, drummer with The Who, suggested they would "go over like a lead balloon"."

(Just like this thread)

ChadTower · « **Reply #2 on:** January 05, 2006, 01:25:16 pm »

Yeah, but it's not funny.

nostrebor · « **Reply #3 on:** January 05, 2006, 01:39:14 pm »

that may be true.

Harry Potter · « **Reply #4 on:** January 05, 2006, 01:41:17 pm »

i don't get it.

nostrebor · « **Reply #5 on:** January 05, 2006, 01:42:51 pm »

I'm really not sure either...

ChadTower · « **Reply #6 on:** January 05, 2006, 02:00:55 pm »

Single phrases that made sense in context, but when out of context, are very very funny.

Harry Potter · « **Reply #7 on:** January 05, 2006, 02:02:50 pm »

Yes............... yes they are......... *reaching for my cricket bat*

nostrebor · « **Reply #8 on:** January 05, 2006, 02:07:06 pm »

Can you provide us with a funny example? Maybe then it will make sense.

ChadTower · « **Reply #9 on:** January 05, 2006, 02:15:59 pm »

Eh, nevermind, I guess. I had an example in the first post. Around here it seems to be a "had to be there" thing.

"I'm not root? How did I get to not be root?"

Exactly.

That one I get.

I guess saint is funnier than Chad.

Sounds like a poll.

ChadTower · « **Reply #13 on:** January 05, 2006, 02:43:48 pm »

No way that is funnier than Han Solo and a balloon knot.

Poll. Poll Poll Poll

nostrebor · « **Reply #15 on:** January 05, 2006, 02:46:12 pm »

Sadly, I had to google it. $:-\$

Oh and yes, we need a poll.

(See below. I think I've got it. I am sooo dense.

There are like 100x more balls on the right than on the left usually.

This is quite fitting following a post by bosss7

I wish I was soaking some bush right about now.

"Oops"

(OK - this one may need some explaining to be truly funny, which disqualifies it from this thread, but.... Said by a buddy of mine to his girlfriend while they were using the "pull-out" method of birth control... and he really meant "oops").
