TimberWolf Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Ever had to grab a crappy meal in the morning because you were running late and the gas station had no selection? You show up to where you are going with a coke and a bad of chips and it's guaranteed someone will say "Ooh, breakfast of champions" Clever Or if you buy a pizza and live in an apartment, if someone else you never even met is on the elevator with you... "Hey, were's mine?" Painting a wall or washing your car? Some zany random may wander by and inevitably spews: "Missed a spot!" Ever been in line at a store and someone's bill comes up to something like $19.97 "Hey, good year!" (I wonder how many times a day someone at a till hears that nugget) Any others? Link to comment
Nuxfanabroad Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 & yet I somewhat applaud the vain attempt. Let's be honest, pure originality producing brilliant humour is rather rare(yet likely at least half the population aspire to do so). Looking at people like Bill Hicks & Carlin essentially reveals that whatever's funny likely offends a significant number of people, as well. Link to comment

Cramarossa Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 When my boyfriend used to work at a cheap motel and would let guests know that they couldn't bring pets ("No animals allowed") as they were checking in whenever he was checking in a couple the husband would always say to the wife (or vice versa) "Sorry honey, guess you'll have to sleep in the car tonight!"

Art Vandelay Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 An old idiom of "I see, said the blind man...but he couldn't really see at all". Unbelievable how much that bothers me. Not a common expression, but it sure isn't funny. Link to comment

goalie13 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I used to clean septic tanks. People would often state, "I bet that job sucks sh*t", as if I had never heard that one before. Link to comment

Go Faulk Yourself Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I work on elevators. You can imagine how old "I guess it has it's ups and downs" gets, and everything similar to that. Link to comment
Down by the River Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 When I was in undergrad I worked as a student border guard. One of the questions you ask is "do you have more than 10k in currency". If I had a penny for every time someone said "I wish", I'd easily have $10k of my own. Link to comment
Nuxfanabroad Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Or the car mechanic who confidently asserts he's "used to working in tight spaces!" Ultra-cliche ya big lug. You'll often hear this from Welsh-Hungarians, as well... Link to comment
