I don’t get Sue Dunhym’s name. OR Disposable Heroes. And I’m a Metallica fan. I like that song. Help :\
DLD, you’ve just joined a vast legion of red-faced, concussed individuals. Probably only prior exposure to the drink joke enabled me to catch it on sight. I was nearly the sucker the first time I saw it played…there but for the grace of apathy go I…
Sorry. I’m one of those annoying people who wasn’t surprised at the end of “Sixth Sense”.
LoverBoy, Sue Dunhym=“pseudonym”=“false name or alias”.
Can’t help you on “Heroes”–I’m not much of a Metallica fan, so I don’t know the song.
“'cuse me while I kiss this guy”
Hey, if Jimi Hendrix can do it, why can’t I?
Sue Dunhym = Pseudonym = a ficticious name
As for Disposable Heroes, for fear of being incorrect and mocked because of it, I’ll keep that to myself 
Listen to the lyrics and imagine the narrators world.
When I was a little kid (way back) my older brother told me the joke about how to catch a seal:
[list=1][li]cut a hole in the ice[]place peas all around the hole[]when a seal comes along and bends over to take a pea :: pause for effect::[/li]You kick him in the icehole. ::rimshot::[/list=1]
Of course, ‘bends-over-to-take-a-pee’ humor is tailor-made for gradeschoolers, but the second part totally blew by me. I always wondered, “How can you catch him if you kick him into the ocean ?!”
Then years later, when retelling it, I suddenly got it “ICEHOLE” :::eyesclosed-headslap:::
Arby’s. Roast Beef. RB’s.
ohhhhh…
::smacking forehead::
I just got that. What an idiot.

Yeah, someone else mentioned the same joke over there first. There were a whole bunch of stupid elephant jokes I never did get.
Q: Why did the elephant paint his toenails different colors?
A: To hide in a bag of M&Ms. (I was thinking, “How could an elephant even fit in a bag of M&Ms? Why would he try to hide in a bag of M&Ms?”)
Q: How do you know if an elephant’s been in your refrigerator?
A: By the footprints in the butter. (same line of thinking as above)
I just never got them. I guess I just didn’t think they were funny.
I got Tequila Mockingbird’s name right off, but didn’t get Sue Dunhym’s name till someone pointed it out.
its half a sign
When I was in graduate school i used to have to walk through a faculty parking lot every day. There was always this carr with a personalized license plate BAAB. Since I figured it was either some initals or something nto obvious I gave it little thought. Then one day I noticed what make of car it was…a Saab.
::SMACK::
America’s Roast Beef! Yes Sir!
Gosh, I don’t know if I want to list all the songs I heard when I was young and don’t know they were about sex. Not only does it show my naievete but it shows how old I am.
“Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?”
“Angel of the Morning”
“Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right.”
(…but we never did that much talking anyway…)
And, on a different subject, I remember being really young
and one Sunday my parents decided to go for a drive in the mountains. I remember looking at the mountains, all tree-covered, and wondering how the car could possibly drive on top of the trees?
And I remember seeing Peter Pan on TV when I was young enough to think that using soap to reattach your shadow if it comes loose seemed like a good household hint.
Today whilst cruising with friends “Paradise By The Dashboard Light” came on. This was the first time I’d heard it since I was 8 or 9.
Got to the part with the baseball announcer.
:smacking forehead: D’oh!
SEX!
HOME RUN!
I GET IT NOW!
Van Halen’s hot for teacher:
I brought my pencil…
give me something to write on!
Phallic joke, none too subtle. Got right by me.
Thanks nikjohns. You beat me to it.
OTOH,
When everyone started talking about “MickeyD’s” I thought they were talking about a new restaraunt. Took me a while to figure out it was just plain old McDonald’s.
You mean “Dancing In The Moonlight” ?
It’s about SEX?!? No way!
“We get it almost every night, when that moon gets all big and bright…”
It’s about dancing, dancing in the moonlight, isn’t it?
Oh, okay, I get it now.
A previous thread on the same subject.
Nope I mean this song:
Well it’s a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'neath the color of October skies.
The song you mention is about sex too. All songs ever written are about sex.
Okay, I still don’t get it. What does that have to do with Piglet or Pooh? Why does having half a sign make his home so great? Wouldn’t it be better if he had the whole sign?
Sorry, I must be really slow.
