Title: QOOC
Post by: ChadTower on January 05, 2006, 10:52:08 am
One of my favorite things is a funny Quote Out Of Context.
Title: Re: QOOC
Post by: nostrebor 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) :)

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

Can you provide us with a funny example? Maybe then it will make sense. :P
Title: Re: QOOC
Post by: ChadTower 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.

"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").

Does my sig qualify?

Otherwise...

"And then the pickle rolled over."

No clue.  I walked into a room where some friends were discussing something... They turned, looked at me, there was an awkward silence, then someone said that like it was the punchline of a joke.

I am suspicious that they were talking about me.

I was walking toward a restaurant counter, a guy was already standing there. He turned around, looked at me and said, in a loud and questioning voice:

"Squeezeable?"

He then realized I wasn't who he thought I was, so he looked over my shoulder and asked again. I guess he was talking about ketchups.
