> The only time I remember that happening was years ago when they watched _American’s Funniest Home Videos_, which isn’t my cuppa tea. I don’t remember anything about it. “Well, there was that video I kind of snickered at, but I don’t remember what it was” isn’t really a valid entry.

It must have been the one where this father tosses a football to his little boy and - now wait for it…the boy throws it back at the dad _but directly at his crotch_ causing him to double over with pain! HAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh my god I can barely breathe just thinking about it! What a great show!
