Not funny to me (actually I think it's kinda dumb) and yes I do have a sense of humor.

I've had that done. The taste, if you can call it that, does NOT go away anytime soon. Yuck!

Mom? Hell, I've cranked one of those. First real job was at a butcher shop. Making ground beef was part of it. Although come to think of it, the one I used may have been electric.

Broke my wrist when I was 8, so couldn't run and play ball with the rest of the kids. So what did I do with my one good arm?

Yep.

I broke my right wrist when I was 15 or so. What did I do? Failed an important standardized writing test at school the next morning, being forced to write left-handed for the first time! Seriously, what I scratched in that little blue test booklet looked like it was straight out of kindergarten. They thankfully let me re-take the test once my wrist was healed.....

So I run preliminary payroll every Friday morning and final payroll Monday
Today our software had an update and I couldn't run it

-So I email our accountant and the service manager, "Hey anyone know the new screen for payroll b/c 3810 isn't working"
-Yeah, 3810 isn't payroll 3618 is

Every week for almost 20 years I have used that screen, I'm old

Aunt tackled me and sat on my chest to give me the mouthful of soap for saying none other than “fudruckers” after the restaurant. Clearly she thought I said something else.

I broke my right arm at university on a Monday night, and I had a final exam I had to take the next morning - I could not miss it because I missed the mid-term exam with a broken thumb. So I asked them not to plaster cast it that night, just bandage it, and I promised I would come back Tuesday after my exam.

So I wrote the exam with a broken arm in a bandage. Even had to step out half way through to run it under water to try to ease the pain

You step down from rung 3 to 2 on the ladder, hit something, and don't even try to grab the ladder as you fall backwards, it's no use. . .

If your angel is around, it was the couch that tripped that fatal step, and you land comfortably on said couch, and the 5' shelf, and both drills drop the other direction instead of impaling you in the gut/testicles.

Loved the movie and the TV series but never heard of "Felix Unger Day."

Guess I didn't pay attention. lol

PS - Looked it up (November 13) so now I know.

Quote:
Why November 13? Because as narrated in the introduction to the TV show The Odd Couple — "On November 13th, Felix Unger was asked to remove himself from his place of residence; that request came from his wife. Deep down, he knew she was right. But he also knew that some day he would return to her."
