I get in the shower before I turn the water on.

Also:

HELL YES!

My brother's Municipal League baseball team is named the Stepdads. Seeing as none of the guys on the team are actual stepdads, I inquired about the name. He explained, "Cuz we beat you, and you hate us." Classy, bro.
:laugh:

What? Why? Where do you stand? You like cold water in the morning?

Some of those are pretty good. I like this one because I just did this yesterday actually:

"Every time I have to spell a word over the phone using 'as in' examples, I will undoubtedly draw a blank and sound like a complete idiot. Today I had to spell my boss's last name to an attorney and said "Yes that's G as in...(10 second lapse)..ummm...Goonies""

I was on the phone with Lenovo support trying to read off a serial number and I came to an X, drew a complete blank (I know, everyone says x-ray) and then said "as in xylophone" for some reason.

-I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.

This was stolen from me. My joke when Google Maps came out was "They have 'fastest route', 'scenic route'...how about 'safest route'???!!"

Don't you hate finding out that you aren't as original as you thought you were? Earlier this summer, I was at a party, and for some reason we started joking about "the shocker" (yes, that shocker). I made the "live long and prosper" gesture from Star Trek and said "on Vulcan, they do the 'spocker.'" We all had a good laugh, primarily at my extreme dorkiness to say that during a kegger.

Imagine my chagrin when I was browsing a web forum and found an image from 2005 or earlier describing the exact same position with the exact same terminology. Bastards! They stole my inappropriate sexual maneuver!

I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.
I do this.


Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.
OK, I admit that I'm somewhat guilty of this one.


I would like to officially coin the phrase 'catching the swine flu' to be used as a way to make fun of a friend for hooking up with an overweight woman. Example: "Dave caught the swine flu last night."
:laugh:


Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after DVDs? I don't want to have to restart my collection.
Well, I feel this way about Blu-Ray, but not DVDs. BD will probably be the last physical media anyway.

I've read half so far but these are absolutely great.

The ones mentioning the 180 sidewalk turn and movie laughing are dead on.
