    Tea Bagging....
    When I was a pre-teen, tea-bagging was a caffeine rush derived by sucking on tea-bags, and then jumping around with a slight high. Fast forward 30 years.

    I saw some tea-bags dumped in the trash, and my son, aged 15, had a sleep-over with several of his friends. My wife had dumped those tea-bags, but I didn't know that. I jokingly said "I see you guys were tea-bagging - eh?"

    They all looked at me wide-eyed, embarrassed. I continued...
    "Oh come on! I used to do that with my friends years ago" - and so the conversation went.
    I left it at a that, and it was not until later that night at a party that somebody advised me of my mistake.

    I WAS APPALLED!

    That is easily the funniest thing I've read all year so far... ha ha!!

    This wasn't me, but rather an ex-boyfriend....Years ago, he was reading an article in the newspaper, which had described a serial killer's acts as "grisly murders." My boyfriend looked totally dumbfounded and asked me "Why would somebody go around killing bears?" Oh dear.

    Okay so when I was a very young kid my parents told me that I get black feet when I drink too much Coke, so me trying to figure it out made my parents speechless the next time we went out. I saw a couple of black people and said to my parents really loud so that everyone could hear it that they must have drunk far too much coke, because they where black all over.

    Mine:
    I grew up in Mississippi and had never heard of Rodeo Drive. When I moved to Phoenix at 19, I was working in the mall and there was a store we used to refer people to called Off Rodeo Drive. Being from where I am, I pronounced it RoDEo (like a country rodeo). It took weeks for my co-workers to convince me that it was Ro-DAY-o Drive.

    Husband:
    He thought Donny and Marie Osmond were married. Until he made a comment about it one day and I started cracking up and told him they were siblings.

    Mother-in-Law:
    Refers to the restaurant Johnny Rockets as Johnny Jump-ups.

    Best Friend's Daughter:
    She would sing the country song Some Beach as Some B!tch. She did this at the top of her lungs. In Target. She was about 5 and argued with me about the correct lyrics of the song. Again at the top of her lungs. And would then continue singing it her way.

    Teenage mutant ninja turtles! Turtles in a hatchback, turtle power!!!

    Only found outlast year it was "turtles in a half shell" when I was walking around work singing it to myself and one of the lads nearly died laughing!

    I thought couscous was a breed of dog and For the song "don't stop believing" I thought the line was "hold on to the ceiling" instead of "hold on to that feeling"
