Ten Things That May be Funny, But Can't Possibly be as Funny as Accidently throwing Candy at a Stuffed Lion.
* No animals were harmed in the production of this list.
** Glossary:
—Accidentally: The plan was: when we got points for the next challenge on the Romp, I would throw my wig in the air for joy, thus revealing to the other members of my team my bald head. The wig accidently flew over the glass display cabinet and landed on a stuffed red bird.
—Candy: A blonde nylon wig.
—Melbourne Romp: A four hour long treasure hunt-cum-amazing race-cum-trivia contest, whereby teams race around Melbourne to checkpoints where they solve clues and gain points.
—Stuffed Lion: An exhibit at the Melbourne Museum guarding a quote from Albert Einstein which I was laughing too hard to ever be able to recall.
1. B—— had to ride her bike to and from the post box urgently before going for a leisurely walk along the beach. Later, relieved, letter-posted, she walked along the sands of Port Melbourne and realised she had forgotten to take off her helmet.
2. This is indescribable. Ask V—— to see the video of him dancing. He is undoubtedly going to kill me for even mentioning this to my nearest-and-dearest (let alone publishing it on the web). He has one of me dancing too. It makes him laugh uncontrollably, but presented to any sample audience side by side, it is the video of V—— that incites raucous laughter. It is very funny.
3. Coming home and finding your friend giving her boyfriend a manicure. It didn’t seem to be that funny to me, but it certainly got my friend going. Car-car-car-car-car. She has an odd laugh.
4. Saying goodnight to Lolli, B—— sweetly spoke to her through the blanket on the couch. Turned out that the lump she thought was Lolli’s head was my foot. Goodnight B——, love, my foot.
