In the lost and found section of the local newspaper:

Found: cow (brown and white) on XXXXX road.

how the hell does one lose a cow? it's not like this road is dotted with cattle ranches.
this reminds me of a news clip i saw on a blooper show or something many years ago. the newscaster had mentioned that, "two cows have been missing from [whomever's] farm... their names are apparently 'black' and 'gus'... so if you find any cows that answer to those names... oh, wait... [laughter] they're black ANGUS cows." :rolleyes:

this is what happens when people READ news instead of do actual journalism.

Now that's funny. :D
 
a guy was complaining about not being able to draw cards and said, "can't draw poop with a brown crayon." :D :D :D
 
what made me laugh my ass off was watching a clip of bill buckner in the '86 WS. :D :D :D as much as i detest the mets, i always loved that game.
 
even so, it's still fun to watch. ;)

i saw it the other night on espn's "20 best world series" show. if you haven't seen it, try to catch it... great clips.
 
Over the Hedge made me laugh till I almost pissed myself.

Yeah. Now you know.
 
norman chad... as annoying as he can be, he's also amusing.
 
Maybe they were drinking too much beer.

My older brother had a bunch of animals; a goat, a horse, a donkey, dogs, cats, and 2 rabbits. So one morning he went out to feed everyone. Fed the horse, and donkey, fed the goat, fed the cattle. Came in and listed off everything to my sister in law, who looked at him and said, "um, we don't have any cattle." The neighbor's had gotten loose again and were all hanging out at my brother's house. But his hospitality was impeccable.

My favorites come from two motions filed by a couple of attorneys' offices:

1-medically induced comma .

2-the grandfather cut the child's ambilical cord.

To speed up, my father (bless his cranky old heart) presses down on the exhilarator.

That would go so well with my sister's erotic driving.

Is this something that involves the stick shift? ;)
Knowing my sis as I do: No.

My niece was having a conversation with a friend who said she was an athiest, my niece quickly replied, "Oh wow, you keep bees, how cool".
Yes I do come from a family of smartarses. :D

Back when I was teaching Freshman Comp, I had a list of what I called "student gems."

--One student mentioned "coma splices."

--Another student turned in a research paper with a "Works Sighted" page. :D

i know this is way off topic but you made me think of something that i've never been able to reason out on my own... what, exactly, is a dangling modifier???

Dangling/misplaced modifiers seem to modify the wrong word in a sentence or no word at all.

Examples (found these on another site because I'm too lazy to make up my own):

Having finished the homework, I went to bed. This is correct because it's clear that the person who did the homework and the person who went to bed are the same.

Arriving at the restaurant half an hour late, the table had been taken. This is incorrect. Did the table arrive late?

A way to correct the sentence might be to say Arriving at the restaurant half an hour late, we discovered that our table had been taken.
