Every time i see IANAL in a thread, I snicker and giggle. Sure, its childish and immature, what of it? Anyone else wanna chime in with printed things that make them laugh? ---

It’s not printed but every time I watch Glee I giggle when they say “New Directions” because it sounds like “nude erections”. ---

This is even more juvenile - anytime I hear somebody inadvertently say “do do”, as in “I DO do that” I crack up. Ha ha, you said doo doo! ---

Reading this thread makes me think of Beavis and Butthead snickering during the trailer for their movie, and Butthead remarking “Huh huh… He said ‘coming.’” ---

> [@EvilTOJ](#): > > I feel like it’s my duty to point out I just said doodie. I employ a service to once a week make my litterboxes disappear and magically be replaced by clean, sanitized ones. Their core business is picking up dog poop from people’s yards. They’re called Doody Calls. So every week I have a van with a great big vinyl wrap on it that says “Doody Calls” parked outside my house. (I’ve always thought they should have been just that tiny bit more clever and named themselves “Duty Calls” and expect everybody to get the joke.) ---

There’s a technical term in municipal water treatment called “flocculate.” I was proofreading a report at work and actually snickered out loud when I saw that word. Tee hee - “flocculate.” ---

There’s an oxygen tank supply/respiratory therapy service in our area that must be owned by someone named Butte. The trucks all have Butte Therapy written on the signs in big letters. I cannot remain grim or indifferent when one passes by. ---

The trucks all have Butte Therapy written on the signs in big letters. I cannot remain grim or indifferent when one passes by. See what a service they’re providing? I’d love to know I was spreading that kind of happiness and cheerful laughter everywhere I went. ---

Oh, I forgot one! There’s a transportation company or something called Glasscock, and all their stuff has “GLASSCOCK” in giant letters on it. Sometimes a car or truck is parked where your view of the “GL” is obstructed. It is never, ever, ever not funny. ---

We use an acronym at work that’s MOEW. I always read it as MEOW and it cracks me up. I’m still afraid to think too hard about what it means that I keep reading “Bandage” as “Bondage.” I’m either kinky or need a trip to the eye doc… ---

When I lived in Oxford, someone had got black paint and painted out the “C” of CANAL STREET. It used to brighten my day. Then some miserable fucker came and painted a white C back on the front of the word. I like to think the original black-paint guy (only a guy would do that) painted it black again, and their war of ass-trition went on like this for months.
