tell me something I don't know about you.. **WINNER ANNOUNCED**

It's not about me, but my HUSBAND has a thing for the Jonas Bros. He DVRs them and watches them on a regular basis. LOL He doesn't get to ever live that one down.

You have just made me realize I lead a rather boring life. Hm. Thanks.

My mom was of the old school "you will sit at the table until you finish your vegetables" kind of mom. But, I seriously hated veggies when I was a kid. My solution? I threw all my vegetables behind the refrigerator when mom left the room. She wondered why she could never get rid of the roaches in that apartment and finally discovered the reason when we moved the refrigerator the day that we moved out . . .
 
I was raised by my Grandparents and when I was about 12, Jeopardy always came on one channel at 4:30 and another channel at 5. I'd watch it in my bedroom at 4:30, then go out into the living room where my Grandpa always viewed it at 5. Well...since I had already seen the episode, I'd blurt out nearly every answer before the contestants. My Grandpa was CONVINCED that I was some sort of genius and was about to call the Superintendent of my school to have my IQ tested. But my Grandma knew what I was doing and made me tell him before he could place the call. The look on his face was totally priceless...and I think he was a tad bit angry at first, but then he loved to tell the story to everyone he came into contact with afterwards. He got a pretty good chuckle out of that one for a long time.

I was a really ornery kid.
 
Okay, here are a few from me...

My whole life until I was about 22, I thought a levy was a gas station. Ya know "drove my chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry", like they ran out of gas. Even funnier is that two out of the three girls I was interning with thought the same thing.

My whole life until I was about 22 (yep, you guessed it, same night I learned what a levy was), I thought Barq's Root Beer was pronounced like barges. My whole life I thought the q was a g.

Last one for tonight. I had a little, um, enhancement a couple of years ago. Okay, okay, I got a boob job, but just to look normal, they're not big or anything. Anyway, I was feeling pretty good on pain pills and resting in the bed after my surgery when my girlfriend (who had her's done about 6 months prior) came to visit me. I vaguely remember her visit. But I definitely don't remember that she says my daughter Claire came into the room, picked something up and was carrying it around, and I said, "Claire go put the Astroglide down, please." Ha!

I looked it up and there are really about 10 different ideas of what it means ... a bar, your gas station idea and river (and yes it's spelled different on many places .. levy and levee ..... ) it's a mystery song :D
 
oh my word - this thread rocks lol

Ok, random about me - not easy. Everything about me is random lol But I can share a couple of stoopid moments with you.

I got into a (verbal) fight in a store once, because a lady wouldn't answer my question. I got rather loud and obnoxious, dropped a few f-bombs and the like....and then relaised it was a mannequin. 'pparently they don't speak...who woulda thunk it?

But, my ultimate moment...

This saturday just gone, I hit the casino with my two bff's for a new moon screening, dinner and som eclub hopping. Now, I am by no means a sophisticated gal but we were out somewhere flash so I was puttin on my airs and graces, strutting my stuff. So of course, I stumbled down the stairs in front of a bunch of hotties. It's ok though....the hotties crotch broke my fall.

Yep, I got a hand full of nuts for dessert.

*dies* LMAO! :thumbup:

And to think, I just fed mine to the dog or buried them in the garbage can! DANGIT! It was ALL WRONG! :D
 
This thread made me laugh so much!

Here's one from me (even though I can't win): When I was at uni, we went to a party, and me and two friends brought a bottle of tequilla (because that's always a good idea..) When we got there there was no shot glasses, so we did shots from pint glasses (even better idea). I was trying to impress some boy, and I was sitting on a swing, and ended up throwing up mid-swing all over him. He wasn't that impressed to be honest;)

So that's a lesson for all of you - leave that tequilla at home. Or even better, never buy one in the first place.
 
let me start mine by saying, my brothers are the worlds best liars. They can lie straight to your face, without blinking an eye. And i am a very trusting person...some may call that trustworthy nature gullible tho lol

So when one of them told me that in soccer, if you head butt the ball into the goal you get two points i believed him. I remember saying "oh my gosh, i cant believe i grew up with three brothers that play soccer and i never knew that!"...my other brother jumps in and says " Yea Lani, and when that happens, then they throw three balls onto the field and they play MmmmmmmMULTIBALL!!! (spoken like a gameshow host)....Cue hysterical laughter from my entire family who all obviously knew they were having me on. Its not the only time its happened. Its now a family sport to tell me these outrageous things and see what i believe. Its not that im blonde, i swear! they are just really good liars!
 
Oh, I could tell me some drunk Kim stories. However, I'll tell this one:

About two years ago, I had a deep tissue biopsy in my breast. When I woke up, I was in major pain, and they gave me Lortab. I was released about 11 am -- surgery was at like 9 am -- and I was starving. Also quite loopy from the Lortab. It was February, and they had given me this huge ice pad thing. At least a foot long, like a sock filled with water and frozen. I just stuck it in my bra and put my coat and shirt on over it.

My dh was driving, and for some reason, I thought it would be a good idea to stop for salads at a sub shop. I walked in with a big frozen sock sticking out of my bra, ordered my salad, smiled at the little old lady customer who was looking at me like I was crazy, and went home and ate. It wasn't until the Lortab wore off that I realized a) that Lortab makes me loopy and b) that the woman was looking at me because I was crazy.
 
Oh gosh my kids are really gullible too. I had them all convinced when they were little that if they lied they would get lie bumps on their tongue which of course they would not LOL but when I thought they were lying I would tell them to stick their tongue out and of course they did not want to cause they thought I would see the "lie bumps" and they would immediately confess to what they had done. It worked until they were about 8 or 9 I think?

** So these all made me giggle and I had to go for a random choice :] Congrats to Angie with this one :] I have been known to walk into things myself.. so this is hilarious to me ^_^ .. Anyway, I'm running super behind atm so I will get you links after the thanksgiving festivities with my family today :] Thanks so much everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!**
ok here it goes.....so imagine this....

I am about 8 months pregnant and we are stationed in Italy {Sicily to be exact}...so we truck out to the local store called Auchan which is like Wal-Mart here...we are walking around and they have some other little stores within the big store like a shoe store, clothing store, camera store and a little ice cream store....so the camera store has ALL glass windows in it, FLOOR to CEILING...now remember, I am just LOOKING, not going inside, just observing from outside...so I decide I REALLY REALLY like this one camera sittig in the display case, so I move a little closer to the window to see it and BAM!!!! yes ma'am I SMACKED my face right on the window~!~~~ and if you think it was funny you have NO IDEA....so my DH and DD decide it is HILARIOUS and bust out laughing and immediately making fun of me...well {me being the DUMB American I am} there was an Italian couple standing right beside us and they weren't sure whether to laugh or not {didn't want to be rude} and then when they saw Dh and DD laughing, they busted out laughing as well!!!! so needless to say, I am still catching flack over that to this day and that was 8 years ago!!!!

had to share my funny....even though I maybe the only one who thinks it's funny...(Congrats Angie by the way :)....

One night when my foster son's brother had arrived into town we had sat down and had a big dinner and went out back to look at something...needless to say in the south we have those fireflies/lightening bugs whatever people call them. They are from california...anyways he started freaking out thinking he was going to pass out because he kept seeing things blinking and flashing around. poor boy was convienced he was seeing things....until I had to catch one and show him that it was a bug and not his mind playing games with him becaues of jet lag. I personally found it hysterical since i've caught them all my life...but he'd never seen one ever :))
