Add frowny faces to texts that people expect smiley faces on. Just to be confusing:

Can't wait to see you! Sad

Heading off to spring break. To be honest, it's kind of a pain to pack all these wet t-shirts.

I had planned to teach my robot right and wrong, but so far I'm pretty impressed with its choice of victims.

Take it from me, whenever someone invites you to a 'black tie event' they expect you to wear more than just a black tie.

Kam, I really like the confusing emoticons idea!

Congress is attacking the evil on Wall Street while completely ignoring the nightmare on Elm Street.

When you play the new Nickleback album backwards, you hear a satanic message. Even worse, when you play it forward, you can hear Nickleback.

Kam,

Don't you know how to Slip and Fall Down Carefully?  We used to practice that in modern dance class by running across the room and falling down carefully in front of the mirror with ballet barre to catch if we slipped.  But I can't show you how. Too old; it would be disastrous.  I loved doing it.

I'm usually finding amusing stuff (i.e. vitriol) over in the Obama thread when things heat up...this one, today, struck me as funny:

....as was pointed out a few times already to our resident energy expert, part-time Anti-Semite,  and Erectile dysfunctional Communist from Lithuania.

LOL -- don't think I've ever seen such an eclectic assemblage of epithets in one sentence!   I suspect its target (whose identity I guess is obvious, given our scarcity of Lithuanian residents here) found this more comic than insulting.

A lot of the funniest comedy is unintentional too.

The phrase "I don't think that word means what you think it means" is usually accompanied by a few laughs.

---

One of my favorite bits  on TV sitcoms is when an actor uses a word out of context and everyone else in the room knows it. Or misunderstands a word that has a contextual meaning, like Rhys Darby's Murray character on Flight of the Conchords discussing Fleetwood Mac with Bret:

Quote
Murray: "You get a love triangle, Fleetwood Mac situation, although there was four of them, so... more of a love square. Mind you, they did make some of the best music back then."

Bret: "Rumours."

Murray: "No, that's all true."

I've had it up to here with the Environmentalists!  First we didn't have enough oil, and now there is too much... Oy! Which is it already?
