Private jokes.

What little things make you laugh? Things that you KNOW noone else would find funny so you keep to yourself? Go on, try sharing them!

My favourite at the moment is a business in town. They're called 'Micron Gauges' but I always read the sign (bad design) as 'Moron Gauges.' I giggle to myself imagining 'Hmmmm, how do I find out exacly how much of a moron x is? And where oh where would I find a gauge to measure it...?'

Please tell me I'm not the only one who does this.....!

Had dealings with a solicitor called Wright Hassall. It makes me giggle imagining answering the phone if I worked there!

Nope, you aren't, I did the same on holiday re shop signs. I was in hysterics over a shop I saw called Hartley Hire (Hartley Hare from Pipkins, old kids programme) When I pointed it out to Mr Boo he looked at me like I was simple.

[nutgoneflake]

I loved Hartley Hare! I would've noticed that one too....

[weeal]

every time a see a shopfitter's van I see it as 'shoplifter' for some reason and wonder why theyre advertising the fact

[kevo2k7]

i used to work for a scaffolding firm called Alpine Erections lol i put up with some **** taking from my m8s then.

NEAR WHERE I USED TO LIVE THERE was a nursing home called phebe bell court (feeble caught) and i always thugh this was an apt name for a nursing home, where they keep all the feeble people locked up

We all laugh at work because there is a guy working there called: Gay Mann
No joke, he is real. We all laugh at him, but he doesn't mind the attention.
I don't see him very often because he works in a different area to me, but his name is published in many jokes on the message board.

Very childish, but eveytime I see the name of the pharmacy across the road, Pollock Pharmacy, I read it as ******** Pharmacy....Yes, I'm a bit simple.

[~max~]

Well, it's been starred out, but I'm sure you can guess! lol

[bednobs]

i wonder what injuries you would have to have to go to the Ballock pharmacy?

[nutgoneflake]

It feels better not to be alone in this...!

I laugh to myself at the things 'suggested' when texting too. My hub was trying to tell me not to cook him any tea, by texting quickly 'I had a big meal' but he didn't look, and sent 'I had a big neck.'

I STILL laugh at that but sometimes I think noone else would find it funny...

Reminds me of one thing I read somewhere - apparently a bloke sent a girl he liked a text saying (or so he throught) 'fancy getting food in the crown?' - because of predictive text messaging what he actually sent was 'fancy getting done in the brown?' LOL!!!

[nutgoneflake]

Haha!

I sent one to my sis telling her I was a 'stressed mum' but it got to her as 'stressed nun.'

[sophie_1003]

haha! love predictive text mistakes! I got a text from my boyfiend and instead of saying he went to PC World he went to PC Wesle, just imagined a human sized weasle thats an IT whizz!

[nutgoneflake]

lol @ sophie - our minds must work the same way!

And talking of funny weasels, my all-time favourite card has a queue of animals in an old fashioned grocer's. The rabbit is at the counter asking 'half a pound of tuppenny rice and half a pound of treacle please.' A weasel behind him in the queue looks horrified - the caption reads 'Weasel didn't like the sound of this."

I only have to say that bit to mr nutgone and he's doubled up laughing...That's our little private joke!

[nutgoneflake]

Another thing that sets me off is a "This Door Is Alarmed" sign. I always want to offer a bit of sympathy and a cup of tea to calm it down.

[sophie_1003]

aww i bought my mum that card for her birthday once! yeah the "Warning, automatic doors" one always gets me, makes them sound very dangerous!

[nutgoneflake]

Hahaha! I've never thought of that, but I will from now on - guaranteed...

My late father was a chemist and he once dispensed a prescription for ointment for piles to a Mrs Rawbottom !!!
