Hilarity Heard

Since I was quite young, I've suffered from tinnitus. Although irritating when experiencing complete silence (which is rare), it has provided a great deal of amusement over the years. Allow me to explain.

Here are just a few examples of phrases I thought I heard and the actual words that were said:

Me: What do you call those things?
High School friend: They're called ...
Me: Traveler's Checks?!?
HSF: No, TROUSER SOCKS!

Then there's the classic Creedence Clearwater Revival song, in which I thought I heard...

There's a bathroom on the right.


Which of course was really...

There's a Bad Moon on the Rise.


This aural err was enforced by a Scooby-Doo cartoon in which said song was playing and the characters were chasing/being chased through a corridor with countless doors.

There are so many other examples, but they escape me at the moment. Anyway, I ran across a website tonight that logs misheard song lyrics. A few were so funny, I actually laughed out loud. (Tip: if you sing them with the misheard lyrics, the hilarity is multiplied!)

Survivor's, "Eye Of The Tiger"
Misheard Lyrics:
High with the Kaiser
Original Lyrics:
Eye of the tiger

Bon Jovi's, "You Give Love A Bad Name"
Misheard Lyrics:
Shot through the heart and your toupee.
Original Lyrics:
Shot through the heart and you're to blame.

kd lang's, "Constant Craving"
Misheard Lyrics:
God sent gravy.
Original Lyrics:
Constant craving

Five For Fighting's, "Superman (It's Not Easy)"
Misheard Lyrics:
I'm only a man, get silly with sheep.
Original Lyrics:
I'm only a man, in a silly red sheet.

Have any examples to share?

Different Kinds of Thinking People

It is my belief that there are 5 different types of people. There are those who...

1) Think they know everything about everything.
This group consists mainly of 15-21 year olds. Monikers: pundits, know-it-alls, and smart-alecks. Of course, in reality they know close to nothing of value.

2) Think they know something about everything.
Known as jack-of-all-trades or a 'renaissance man/woman.' They are simply fooling themselves.

3) Think they know everything about one thing.

This group is sometimes referred to as experts or specialists. They don't actually know everything in their field, but know enough to be considered a reliable source on said topic.

4) Think they know next to nothing.
These are humble and honest folk.

5) Know enough to know there's quite a lot that they don't know.

These are the wisest of the bunch. Hang out with these people and learn from them. You just may move from a type 4 to a type 5. And these are the only true types anyway.

So..... where do you fall?

#5 .....The walls are too close together for the hammock to work right.

#4 ....23 power cords - 1 outlet.

#3 ....Prison cells are not only bigger, they also have beds.

#2 .....The carpet has been there since 1976 and shows more signs of life than your co-workers.



And the #1 drawback to working in a cubicle is....



#1 ....You can't walk out and slam the door when you quit.


Another in the 'funny cuz it's true' department. :)
