funny pictures, episode 11

I already know that some upcoming posts will feature ranting and rambling and nerdiness.  While you wait, here’s some funny pictures for your viewing pleasure.

This is from the Rosco P. Coltrane school of flying.
This would make a great conversation starter. Except that people everywhere would be laughing at you.
There are people who live this way, who hunt gators for a living. Now they even have their own TV show called Swamp People. Crazy...
While that may happen, some people fart so much that it's always dangerous to go to their cubicle...
I hope he's not a heavy sleeper!

caption contest, airplane crashed in a lake

Short work-week or not, I’m still going to publish a caption contest, because I’m just awesome like that.

This week’s photo features a man in a uniform staring at an airplane crashed in a lake / pond.  It’s up to you — yes, you — to figure out what happened and write a (preferably funny) explanation.  Of course, this being a site of randomness and humor, you can take it in any direction you want.  You can write from the perspective of someone not even in the picture.  Or you can write about what caused this, or what will happen later because of it.  Let your creativity soar.

Easter eggs falling from the sky

Speaking of Easter eggs, a couple of years ago a church in South Carolina dropped 50,000 plastic Easter eggs from an airplane, for people to find.  They claimed that some eggs had prizes fit for adults.   As you might expect, we had an interesting discussion based on this:

That would have been hilarious, a field full of people waiting for the eggs to arrive, and then 50,000 eggs falling from the sky like pastel colored hail. I can see the news headlines now — “Easter bunny takes to sky, kills three”, “When Eggs go bad, the Easter Weekend Massacre”, and a Mythbusters episode where they not only prove that the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy are real, but they can kill you too.   And when you say with prizes fit for adults, I’m imagining a TV wrapped in a giant eggshell, and a couch, car, and boat done the same way. ~ Turtle Dundee, 4/9/07

Now I have a bonus Easter-related link for you.  This story is about a couple who hid real, hard-boiled Easter eggs around their house for their kids.  They hid two dozen, but found only 13.   I’ll leave the hilarious explanation for your reading, because it’s really funny how he explains what happened.  Here’s the link: Smells like Easter.  [link broken]
