**Me:** Just last night, my husband told me he TiVo’d something for me and I had to guess what it was. I thought it was a joke and that he was saying he taped something that I really needed to see, so I started guessing things I’m not good at: “How to Cook”, “How to Clean”, “How to give Blow Jobs”. He asked me what channel that last one would be on and I said (just thinking of some random ‘how to’-type of channel, “The Do It Yourself Network”. It took me a good 2 minutes to realize just how funny that was. As soon as I realized it, I screamed _"OH MY GOD…DOOOO…IIIIIIT…YOOOOOURSEEEEEELF!_" I couldn’t breathe from laughing so hard! Damn, I’m funny! 😃

**Eddie Izzard** (again). A line from a British version of an action movie: “It’s the Germans…they’re here.” That whole bit had me gasping for air.

Years ago, I saw my first **MST3K** movie. Of course, I can’t remember the title, but there was this guy who was sitting up on an operating or examining table and he looked like he had a lobotomy. As soon as they showed the “retarded” (or the more PC “mentally deficient”) look on his face, one of them said, “I like mittens!” and it just had me rolling. It was the combination of the look on the guy’s face and the funny way he said “I like mittens” that did it. I was hooked from that point on.
