Do you ever have those days where you mouth and brain work independently of one another?

This week has been one of these weeks for me.

The other night, I was sat watching TV at home with a friend, and (I forget what the conversation was about) but I said “you know, like that psychologist, Siegfried and Roy”… I immediately knew what I’d done, and proceeded to laugh hysterically for about 10 minutes. Of course I meant Sigman Froyd.

And then last night, I was on the phone to my friend while watching Big Brother, and Michael was standing on his head doing Yoga, and I said “I did Yoda for a while and could never get that move”… followed by “Did you know I’d done Yoda??????.. I didn’t!.."

Of course, I meant Yoga.

So, what’s the funniest thing you’ve heard someone say, or said yourself?

I now want to say "that famousd gay psychologist, Pink Froyd"

It's Sigmund Freud, by the way -- unless you were being ironic. Yeah, they're Freudian slips and they happen quite a lot. I already saw one today in an e-mail.

Heh.

Fruedian slips.

I was on a date and at the end of the night when we were parting and both very tired, I said "I think we need to go to bed" or something to that effect. Her reaction to that statement was interesting.

Did it end witht the removal of testicles?

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's Syngman Rhee. Just to clear things up. *Nod*

No. It ended quite well. I just clarified that we were both tired when she gave me the look that was a mix of shock and horror.

Nice one.

The Beautiful Darkness read "good moaning" when I said "good morning" once.:D

I think my worst foot-in-mouth thingie was a real public shocker.

*ponders translation*

By 'mistake' I offered a respectable wife of someone else a shag instead of a fag.

Yesterday, on Regis & Kelly, Bryant Gumbel was co-hosting for Regis.

They were doing the trivia thing, and bubbles were still floating around, and Kelly called Bryant "Bryant Bubble".

Good times. :)


I, myself, do it alot, but can't remember anything.

Shrimp Freud Rice. :)

You'd sound a bit like a leprechaun if you pronounce it that way.. kinda funny.

That's okay, I read the "Do You Believe in Fate" thread as "Do You Believe in Fat," and was trying to come up with a good post before realizing I'd misread it. Hey! Maybe fat is psychosomatic!

Bryant Gumbel sitting in for Regis? And Katie Couric starting the CBS Evening News in September? How the mighty are fallen.

Why not?:confused:

I usually get that way when I am very tired. I mean very very tired.

I was once out to a business dinner with my husband and some of his clients, when I hadn't really slept for more than 10 hours that week (new baby) and decided to have a glass of wine with dinner (since everyone else was:rolleyes: ) and we got into a discussion about the current president, I mentioned that I was taught not to discuss politics at the dinner table (when asked why I didn't join in the discussion, the truth was I didn't think any of them would like my opinions)

anyway, they started to talk about that, and I said "all of the wars in the world have been over politics, religion, money and sex, so I don't discuss any of that at dinner"

and his client (did I mention he was a super big client, like multi millions for my husband's co.) says "name one war that was started by sex"

and the first thing that popped into my mind was "the trojan war?" :p

he says "there was a condom war?!" and turned bright red, and I turned bright red and was laughing so hard..........

I haven't been invited to many more business dinners, I wonder why:eek: :D

ROFL! I don't think even I'd reply to something with a title like that. It's kinda weird.

You wouldn't? But you'd open it up to see the OP, at least. :p

LOL The only thing that makes that so damned funny is assuming you weren't thinking condoms when you said that.:p

I wasn't, I was thinking about the actual mythical trojan war.... the whole thing was about sex.

Yeah, just in case I misread it or something.;):p

But seriously, you could have said "The Spanish Inquesition."

:eek: :rolleyes: :p

Yeah, I knew what you had in mind. I mentioned that once, and someone brought the condoms to my attention, so I gave them the blank stare until they stopped laughing. And I'd invite you to business meetings just for your uncanny sense of humor.;) :fluffle:

I suppose "Trojan" sounds more virile than "Achaian" and "Greek" has too many other connotations, but the Trojans did ultimately lose that war, so doesn't that imply that the condoms ... :rolleyes:

yeah, then I had to explain to him about the Trojan war and why it was so funny to me that I said it, you know because it didn't actually happen, and all, it would be like if he said "give me an example of child abuse" and I said "Cinderella"

he was worried that I thought he was stupid, and I said "no, I thought I was" but he didn't understand what I meant, so I decided to shut up.

It's totally not important to me.

Are you by any chance worried about what might happen at your kids wedding receptions?

:p

Techinically the whole thing was about jealous godesses, and Zeus being too smart to get in the middle of it.

*dusting off my classics degree* Right, but that fracas among Athena, Hera and Aphrodite got started because Eris (Discord) didn't get invited to the wedding of Achilles' (future) parents, Thetis and Peleus.

meh, I see what I want to see. ;)

I remembered an actual freudian slip that happened once, but it's too embarassing to repeat, I was on a date with my husband before we were married, and instead of saying what I was supposed to say I said 'sex' and he called me on it, and I tried to deny it, but I really couldn't, it was like our second date or something and he says "you were thinking about sex weren't you?" and I said "no" and then like 5 more times that night I messed up what I was talking about and mentioned sex again :eek: he didn't realize it those times, or at least didn't say anything about it, when I got home I thought "I need to learn NOT to talk"

meh, I see what I want to see. ;)

Which is what this animation was created for ... :headbang:

And yeah, Aeson, Eris being pissed does rate as a "jealous goddess," but given her people skills, she shouldn't have been surprised.

I am afraid I don't understand

Uhm ... you said you made the same slip five times that evening and told yourself you needed to learn not to talk ... okay, I guess head-bang wasn't that funny.

How many Freudians does it take to change a lightbulb?

2. One to change the lightbulb and one to hold the penis.

oh, no it's funny, I couldn't figure out if that's what you meant (which was my first thought) or if you were mad at me for deciding that I can reduce the trojan war back to sex..... LOL

lol ... nah, the Trojan War was about sex. Look at the way the Iliad starts, with the anger of Achilles. Why is Achilles angry? because Agamemnon took away the girl Achilles recently acquired on a little raid the Achaians had made on the side.

Yeah, but that was more a matter of principle than it was the actual girl, as is made evident when Agamemnon offers to give the girl, and whole bunch of other mad loot back.

:rolleyes: Okay, okay. Actually, the war was all about that oath Helen's suitors took, standing on the body of a sacrificed horse, to always help out the guy who got the girl. Not everyone of them was all that keen on helping Menelaus get Helen back, Odysseus pretended he was crazy and Achilles' mother had him go cross-dressing and hide among a bevy of maidens.

But you can always make a case for sex. Anytime, anywhere. :p

I suppose we ought to start a Trojan War thread and let this one get back to its original, lofty purpose.

What? You mean salting the beach was because he was pretending to be crazy? It wasn't his cleverness?

My, do I feel sheepish.

He didn't want to go because of a prophecy that said it would be a hell of a long time before he got home, so he started ploughing his fields and sowing salt. Agamemnon sent Palamedes (the inventor of currency, weights and measures, jokes, and dice ... is there a connection there?) to collect Odysseus and Palamedes put Telemachus, Odysseus' infant son, on the ground in front of the oncoming plough. Naturally, not really being crazy, Odysseus turned aside and was revealed. So, yeah, he was being clever but Palamedes was cleverer.

yeah, then I had to explain to him about the Trojan war and why it was so funny to me that I said it, you know because it didn't actually happen, and all, it would be like if he said "give me an example of child abuse" and I said "Cinderella"

LOL That's why I love you. You're the best, but so clumsy sometimes.:) And it still has to be determined as to whether or not there was indeed a Trojan War. Maybe not the one of legend, but a major war nonetheless.

I suppose "Trojan" sounds more virile than "Achaian" and "Greek" has too many other connotations, but the Trojans did ultimately lose that war, so doesn't that imply that the condoms ... :rolleyes:
And thus a thread was born. :p

They're greeks. Wacky fun.
Well, you know what they say, "The Greeks invented sex, but the Italians introduced it to women." :D

meh, I see what I want to see. ;)

Too embarrassing, eh? TG me.;) I keep secrets really well.

So, what’s the funniest thing you’ve heard someone say, or said yourself?

Well, my wife frequently mishears things. Example: The old Don Ho song, "Tiny Bubbles". She had always thought he was singing about "tiny buttholes".

Yes, I'm serious. Stop laughing.

Tiny Buttholes by Don Hole

Tiny buttholes in the wine,
make me happy, make me feel fine,
tiny buttholes make me warm all over
with a feeling that I'm gonna love you 'til the end of time.


So here's to the golden moon,
and here's to the silver sea,
and mostly here's a toast to you and me

make me happy, make me feel fine,
