Don't you hate it when a camel walks up and sits down on you?

[unclviny]

When Unclviny was still a baby the family moved to Tripoli, Libya (Dad worked for Esso).
We lived on a street on the outskirts of town and there was only 1 road in and only 1 other house on the street, our neighbor was driving into work one morning when his progress was stopped by some slow moving Camel’s being herded across the road.
He began honking his horn in an attempt to hurry up the Camel’s, apparently one particular Camel did not appreciate this and sat on the front end of his little tiny Fiat car smashing it into scrap (explain that to your insurance agent!).
Several months later it happened to him again!.

Australia actually did operate a Camel Corp during the Great War. They were used in the Middle East, alongside the Light Horse.

I never heard of one that sat on anyone though.

I had a FIAT, in the camel’s defense it really doesn’t take much to squash one.

Seems like it be a blow to your self esteem for a camel to mistake you for a chair.

But to give the camel credit, it apparently had strong convictions and refused to sit on the fence.

Too bad it didn’t take place at a milk processing plant.

Then, it would’ve been a Dromedary Dairy Drama.

I don’t know…there can’t be more than two or three phonetic palindromists around here.

'Specially now that we’ve identified one. sinister look

[OtakuLoki]

Perhaps not that many phonetic palindromists, but I will say that there are a whole asylum full of punsters here.

Camels, foul, foul-tempered and blessed with a remarkably clever and cunning character. Never turn your back on one.

A camel once tried to tear out my throat, while its owner stood next to it and chirped, “Oh, how sweet, he likes your perfume!”

I’m still rather fond of camels, though. You gotta admire an animal that can look so haughty while stinking so bad.

Say what you will about a camel, you’ll never see one giving a standing ovation to a Jerry Lewis movie.

Yeah, but after the film, the screen is usually absolutely covered in camel loogies.

A loose camel? In Bethlehem? Expect a 911 call from a dismounted magus…

No magi in West Virginia. Just Christians and Hare Krishnas.

1500 pounds?! Definitely not a Camel Light. More like a Camel Wide.
