Hey! Who stepped on a duck?!
Heaven’s full of ducks…. So I’m told…
And the streets are paved with cheese! Wait wrong movie…O_o
All Ducks Go to Heaven? IDK.
Nope, a joke my Papa told me….
“3 women go to heaven…….”
Know what? The joke’s too long. It takes ages to get to the punchline which only makes folk laugh sometimes. I’m a 2 finger typist so I really can’t be bothered writing it out.
Just pretend you heard it and found it very funny.

QUACK!
LMAO–What a knee slapper! LOL!!
INVISIBLE HUMOR
A pair o’ ducks, a pair o’ ducks
A most ingenious pair o’ ducks
Quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack
A pair o’ ducks!
A fowl ditty Sir! That’s going on your bill!
That’s purely a matter of a pinion.
LOL! Your poultry remarks are beneath my notice.
You guys are too punny! lol!
Hey, the beauty of a pun is in the oy of the beholder.
A farce to be reckoned with.
Surely he’s just winging it.
I’ll waterbird the puns right outta him!
*gives Uncle his “medication”*
Delicious.
It’s a fair cop.
Who are you, that are so wise in the ways of science?
*mwah!*
One of my favorite Grail scenes!! She turned me into a newt! Well, I got better!
In college it was a strict rule that NO ONE in the room was allowed to say “I got better” an instant before John Cleese did, upon pain of whatever horrible punishment we could come up with on the spur of the moment.
Beautiful!! I played drums for a band in college and we called ourselves “Tim and the Enchanters”
Be kind to your web footed friends
For a duck may be somebody’s mother
Be kind to your friends in the swamp
Where the weather is very very damp
You may think that this is the end
Well it is
I thought you sing it once again (only this time a little higher)?
What is that song anyway?
My dad sings that song, except he sings “brother” instead of “mother.”
Every 4th of July!
Ha! I got it from my dad. Must.. Pass.. Duck song on!!!
I know a version of that song which is even shorter. It is just lines 1, 2, 5, 6.
Darn this economy! Now we have to cut back on songs, TOO???
Egads! Terrible.
However they are both rather funny. I LOL’d.
Is that when he was on 30 Rock?
Could be. It looks like he’s wearing a lot of make up. Probably something from Revlon’s “Jowl Hider” line.
It doesn’t appear to be working.
All depends on the “Before” picture.
I think that may actually be the “Way Before” picture.
Meh.
Seconded.
Thirded. He won the flippin’ Nobel Prize, after all. This ain’t that!
May have been a little funny it the caption had said “created” instead of invented”. Well maybe not but at least it would have been the correct quote.
.
Pendants `R Us: Gore never said he invented the internet, he said he created it in the context of his pushing legislation to fund the technologies used.
Sarah Palin never said she could see Russia from her house, but that hasn’t stopped anyone from attributing that to her.
Sarah herself never let facts get in the way of a good sound bite,
but no she didn’t say that. Her actual quote was:
.
“They’re our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.”
.
… and neither has Al Gore since you brought up the point.
ANother inconvenient truth you might say.
You know of any politician that has?
Duh, read the top of this comment thread. Raelalt gave the correct info for Gore first. Oh, BTW, republicans have been blasting childish neo-cons like you today on other parts of the threads.
Just the Uncle Tom republicans
Wow. Cutting remark, how can the world stand in your shadow? Do you even know what you said? The insult implies that an individual of African American decent is betraying his race by having an opinion of his/her own and looks to the betterment of themselves or family over some perceived racial identity. Your use implies that because someone dares to have their own opinion and speak in a civil manner with someone they disagree with and discuss issues rather than parrot the party groupthink that they are betraying the perceived political identity. People like you are why dictators take over.
“Uncle Tom” Republicans = People with whom you disagree.
Sorry for you!

Hands one to ema and froo.. wear in good health!
*pins on badge* *beams with pride, hugs Eddie and ema*
As a constitutionally and fiscally conservative independent voter that usually votes Republican, do I qualify for a UTR badge? Or can I just start the Friends of UTR group?

There ya go! Wear it in good health!
Thanks, Eddie!
Eddie’s handing out UTIs and women are THANKING him for it? I totally don’t get how……
Oh.
Never mind.
Are you having cause and effect problems again, Slan?
Yep, like Raelalt said. It was actually Tina Fey AS Palin that said she could see Russia from her house. Funny how that pop culture gets into the American psyche. Think of that next time you instantly believe a quote you THINK you’ve heard correctly. ; )
True, what Sarah said and implied was actually dumber, but not very funny, especially from someone who believes that she should be President.
Interesting idea. Maybe we as a group are so acculturated (if that is the word I want) that TV and movies seem realer to us than life does?
Both Tina Fey and Weird Al Yankovic have parodied incoherent material. For the comedy to work, they have to communicate clearly enough for the audience to get the jokes.
Tina Fey quotes were easier to remember than real Palinisms, because they made more sense. In some Tina Fey routines, you could understand both what her fictionalized Palin was trying to communicate, and the far funnier actual English meaning. The real Palin’s world salad rarely conveyed even one message coherently.
The really funny-disturbing bit is that 90+% of the Tina Fey word salad was gleaned from actual Sarah Palin quotes.
Totally.
I saw the SNL Couric/Palin “interview” before the actual thing. I thought Fey was just being mean and was actually turned off by it.
THEN, I saw them both side by side and was amazed that Fey’s “lines” were verbatim. Holy Sh*t. And McCain expected sane people to vote for that.
Actually, Gore never even said that he created the internet. That’s just something the Bushies made up. Here you can read the interview from which this was all drawn:
http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/stories/1999/03/09/president.2000/transcript.gore/
It seems like a throwaway line, too. It was part of a list of his accomplishments in Congress. Goes to show ya what Rove – or Rovethink – can do.
This is a direct quote from your link:
“I took the initiative in creating the Internet.”
Its a joke guys…
There are pictures of him on the “upcoming” pages -how different he looks!
Three women die together in an accident and go to heaven.
When they get there, St. Peter says, “We only have one rule here in heaven: don’t step on the ducks!”
So they enter heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place. It is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they try their best to avoid them, the first woman accidentally steps on one. Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest man she ever saw.
St. Peter chains them together and says, “Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly man!”
The next day, the second woman steps accidentally on a duck and along comes St. Peter, who doesn’t miss a thing. With him is another extremely ugly man. He chains them together with the same admonishment as for the first woman.
The third woman has observed all this and, not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly man, is very, VERY careful where she steps.
She manages to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St. Peter comes up to her with the most handsome man she has ever laid eyes on – very tall, long eyelashes, muscular, and thin.
St. Peter chains them together without saying a word.
The happy woman says, “I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all of eternity?”
The guy says, “I don’t know about you, but I stepped on a duck!”
BWAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAA!!!
I needed a mean laugh.
“This isn’t really my apartment…”
“This is not my beautiful house,
this is not my beautiful wife…”
