Funny Friday, words that make you laugh |
Prompt: Sneak over to your immature side for a moment (if you're not like me and haven't taken up a permanent residence there)...some words, regardless of their meaning, make us laugh for no reason (as an example, the word "gaggle" makes me giggle and conjures up images unrelated to its definition). What word (or words) does this for you? I am one of those people who finds different things funny, depending on my mood. Sometimes I just find myself in fits of laughter over the dumbest things and no one else can figure out why I'm laughing. The first time I saw the first Hunger Games movie is a prime example. For whatever reason, I found the scene between President Snow and the game director, Seneca Crane incredibly amusing. In reference to Katniss, Seneca Crane says, "Everyone loves an underdog.". President Snow, who is messing with roses, gives him a 'Go die under a bush' look then says ever so calmly, "I don't,". For some reason this struck me as hilarious, and it still makes me laugh. Other random phrases and words that make me smirk or laugh include: duck, spork, rump roast, departed and snarky. I don't know why but these words just strike my funny bone and make me want to giggle uncontrollably. While some people may thing I am a bit off my rocker, I prefer to see it as being constantly amused. Cheers to an non-boring life! |
