Friday Funnies
Most of my chuckles this week I owe to Madison. Of course, the laughter usually brought on a phlegm-filled coughing fit, but who’s complaining?
1. Madison’s 4th grade yearbook. Granted, this was just four and a half short years ago, but it was pre-glasses, pre-pre-contacts, and when her favorite color was pearl pink. So much has changed since then that it was fun to take a nostalgic look at her fourth grade memories. She circled the pictures of her closest friends, marked some bratty kids with an X, and drew a heart around her crush. One poor boy was labeled for posterity, “Farts.”
The cutest part was how she answered the “About Me” questions in the back. Q: How would your best friend describe you? A: Hyper, nice, awesome. Q: What is your biggest accomplishment so far? A: Making it through 4th grade with a mean teacher. Q: What are your grades like? A: None of your business… except she wrote “none of your bunnies.” (From now on that’s what I’ll tell nosy people. “None of your bunnies!”)
2. Ellen in Breaking Dawn. Ellen DeGeneres inserts herself into this clip from Breaking Dawn. HILARIOUS. Anyone going to see the movie this weekend?
3. Funny freakout. This girl is attempting to sing “I Will Always Love You” and freaks out when she can’t get it right.
4. Sick Days, Then and Now. This comic was apropos for me, hopefully funny for you too.
5. Stupid one-liners. Maybe you need “medicine head” to find these funny…
The zoo is a pretty safe place to fart.
A TV can insult your intelligence but nothing rubs it in like a computer.
Some people are like Slinkies… not really good for anything but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs.
The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the naughty girls live.
How I know worrying works: 90% of the things I worry about never happen.
What made you laugh this week?




Thanks for your input on my blog about sleepovers. So far it’s going well. One little girl woke up sick this morning, so she will get a “do-over” pass for when she feels better. My girls are newly 7 and 11 days from 9. I’ll be 50 in May! ACK! It’s just been a long time since I’ve been involved in sleepovers, at least little girl ones
My fun for the day. I subbed at our elementary school, quite the experience for an 18 year veteran of high school English students. I was grading a math paper and it read 6 ___ 3 and the optional answers were ” or =” One darling put down “or” as the correct answer! I had to chuckle at that one. It was a second grade class!
I’m your newest follower!
Drat! There should have been greater than or less than signs included in the optional answers. Yet another reason why math and I never got along. The answers tend to disappear!
@Lana, I have a 15 y/o girl, a 2 1/2 y/o boy and a girl on the way, due 4/9/12. I’ve had plenty of experiences with girl sleepovers but I have NO idea what I’ll do with a boy sleepover!
I love the answer the second grader gave – “or.” Ha! Thanks for sharing and for coming by my blog!
