The past few days I have heard so many unintentionaly funny audio clips that I have to wonder if something is wrong with me. I only remember a select few, but trust me, there were a lot more of these gems.
First one was the most recent, it was a radio spot for Shane Company that I heard last night. Tom Shane’s voice over goes like this;
“Guess who I just got off the phone with.”
a slight hesitation.
“Your mom. That’s right YOUR mom”
Thanks Tom, for reminding me of my junior high school days. For the rest of you, maybe you had to be there.
The next funny thing was some guy reciting his wedding vows at the end of TLC’s “What Not To Wear” makeover show (uuhh… one of my girlfriend’s favorite shows). Trying to express love to your new bride in front of friends and family probably isn’t easy. And it apparently wasn’t easy for this guy. As he chokes up with tears from all the emotions of the day, the groom says the following, I kid you not;
“You’re… the…. the last woman I want to spend the rest of my life with.”
OK, I know this one wasn’t just me, that has to be funny to everyone else. Right? Freud on line two, Frued on line two.
Finally, the best had to occur during this weekend’s NFL draft. Just moments after the San Francisco 49ers made their first round selection by picking Vernon Davis out of Maryland, he began to cry. And cry and cry. Now when this happens during anything sport-related the announcers will always talk about how great the cry baby is, basically making excuses for the guy. This time was no different, as Vernon was crying and walking and crying to the podium, Tom Jackson of ESPN clears everything up with, “Now these are tears of joy.” Right. As opposed to tears of sadness; “NOOOOOO!!!…. I’m going to the 49ers! waaaaaah! A team with 6 wins the last two season, waaaaaah. The whole organization is a mess, waaaaah. Mommy!”
Great Unintentional Comedy or “You had to be there”? I’ll let you decide.
