My Fiday OT contribution....

Winston, You'll enjoy this one...

You think you know English? Try this one. Can you decipher this?

Two individuals proceeded towards the apex of a natural geologic protuberance, the purpose of their expedition being the procurement of a sample of fluid hydride of oxygen in a large vessel, the exact size of which was unspecified.


One member of the team precipitously descended, sustaining severe damage to the upper cranial portion of his anatomical structure; subsequently the second member of the team performed a self rotational translation oriented in the same direction taken by the first team member.


In simple English what does this translate to??

Re: My Fiday OT contribution....LOL, but

you shoulda left the answer off, I'd love to have seen how many complained since they probably wouldn't have gotten it. By the way Charm, did your Grandmother have old traditional sayings? Mine seemed to have a saying for every situation. I'd love to compare them with you some day, I'm compiling a book (been doing it for some time now) of ethnic witicisms and sayings and need some additional research.

Re: My Fiday OT contribution....LOL, but

Yes Charles, she had quite a vocabulary. Only, I think, because English was her second language. The saying I remeber dearly was
Suvanab*tch! That was usually reserved for my Dad or any of her other son-in-laws.....LOL

Re: My Fiday OT contribution....Now that's funny

I can actually picture your grandmother saying that. My grandmother never really got a great English vocabulary and we spoke Russian at home but she had all these sayings that she used to pepper her speech with, cliches if you will, but some of them were quite funny, at least to me as a kid.

Got A Joke

I don't want to start another thread so here goes. My son who is 11 came home yesterday and told me this one.

There were 3 guys. One was named Stupid, one was named Manners, and one was named Poop. One day Stupid went to the police station to file a report. The cop asked him "What is your name?" He said "Stupid". The cop asked again "What is your name?". He said "Stupid" again. The cop got frustated and says "Where's your manners?". Stupid replies "He went to the corner to pick up Poop".

ROFL..Loved it.
Try these...answers will follow in subsequent post;

Complications arose during an investigation of dietary influence: one researcher was unable to assimilate adipose tissue and another was unable to consume tissue consisting chiefly of muscle fiber. By reciprocal arrangement between the two researchers, total consumption of the viands under consideration was achieved, this leaving the original container of the viands devoid of contents.

A young male human was situated near the intersection of two supporting structural elements at right angles to each other: said subject was involved in ingesting a saccharine composition prepared in conjunction with the ritual observance of an annual fixed-day religious festival. Insertion into the saccharine composition of the opposable digit of his forelimb was followed by removal of a drupe of genus prune. Subsequently the subject made a declarative statement regarding the high quality of his character as a young male human.

A triumvirate of marine rodents totally devoid of ophthalmic acuity were observed in a state of rapid locomotion in pursuit of an agriculturalist's marital adjunct. Said adjunct then performed triple caudectomy utilizing an acutely honed bladed instrument generally used for the subdivision of edible tissue.

A female of the species homo sapiens was the possessor of a small immature ruminant of the genus ovis, the outer most covering of which reflected all wavelengths of visible light with a luminosity equal to that mass of naturally occurring microscopically crystalline water. Regardless of the translational pathway chosen by the Homo Sapien, the probability was 1 that the aforementioned ruminant would select the same pathway.

A human female, extremely captious and given to opposed behavior, was questioned as to the dynamic state of her cultivated tract of land used for production of various types of flora. The tract components were enumerated as argentous tone-producing agents, a rare species of oceanic growth and pulchritudinous young females situated in a linear orientation.
