I Need A “That’s NOT Funny” Intervention

January 25, 2011

I am convinced I am the only one who think’s I am funny. Honestly i do amuse myself so that’s all that matters, right? Well, that is until you get to the point of your “joke” where you are annoyed by it — but can’t seem to stop saying it.

You know the end scene in the movie SE7EN with Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman & Kevin Spacey?

“What’s In The Box?” …. “What’s In The Box”?

& the distinct way he says it?  – I can not stop saying it.

You know my favourite show is How I Met Your Mother — doesn’t help that Robin said it randomly & it was perfectly executed.

Anyway.

If it ended there that would be okay I guess… but for me of course i know how to ruin a joke and make it even more annoying….

“What’s in that Bag?”

“What is for Lunch?”

“What’s on the Blog?”

“What’s In the BOOOOOX?”

My husband is looking at me like I am crazy.  My brother is looking at me like I am crazy.  My kids are looking at me like I am crazy …

& now you ;)

I need a “that’s not funny” intervention.

I think there’s a lot to be said for making yourself smile even if no one else or few others get it. It really does do wonders for the soul I say.

It might be funny the first few times, but after that… maybe not so funny.

But I mean that in the kindest possible sense. It’s the same advice I share with my kids after hearing the same joke 5,352 times.

Ok, I don’t get it….and I think it’s pretty funny, even though I have no idea what voice it’s supposed to be said in or what you’re referencing. I also do something similar…like repeat something that no one else thinks is funny, but for me it’s side splitting funny.
