    I kept seeing people walking around with bags, badges, T-Shirts and the like that said "I <3 PB" and thought for a long time that it meant "I Love Peanut Butter" rather than "I Love Paul's Boutique"

    Neither make sense really.

    Maybe the clothing is named after the BEASTIE BOY'S album...???

    Today is National Peanut Butter Lover's Day so, even if it usually stands for Paul's Boutique, it definitely stands for Peanut Butter today.

    I know this isn't the right way, but I always have fun with that Marmoset Song from the 1960's:

    "Marmoset there'd be days like these -
    Marmoset, marmoset...

    It took me hours to convince my ex it was In a Godda Da Vida and not In the garden of Eden lol

    The rumour about this song was that it was supposed to be "In the garden of Eden", but they were so high, it came out In a Godda Da Vida...

    From Queen's "Bohemian Rapsody" my best friend thought the line was "gotta moush, gotta moush...." instead of Scaramouch, Scaramouch will you do the Fandango.

    I died laughing when she told me that one day.

    my husband thought this:

    "Blinded by the light/ revved up like a DOUCHE.... I had to explain to him what a Douse was. :) He still sings it this way for a laugh.
    It would be interesting to know what a Douse is. Perhaps the word you seek is deuce. Irony is awesome. :drinker:

    As is sarcasm sir...

    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!

    ^^^^^^ and we have a WINNER....

    LMAO, really, tears in my eyes

    When I was learning the alphabet, I thought lmnop was one letter pronounced "elementa-pee".

    That's funny my little sister used to say HIJK "CAMEL" and a P. We still like to say it that way, it's just fun! And when my oldest daughter was about 2 yrs old we had Salisbury Steak for dinner one night and she ask if she could have more Chocolate Snake! We still call it that to this day and she is 12 now.

    These have seriously made my day, my face is going to be sore from smiling!

    For pretty much most of my life I thought the "Scaramouch, Scaramouch wil you do the fandango" line in Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody was saying "Got a Moose? Got a Moose? Wanna do the Fandango?" I was confused at what dancing moose had to do with anything and also how someone would dance with them...

    When my daughter was little, she came home from preschool one day and asked if I could buy some "Chips of Hoy" cookies like they had at school.

    When my son was little, we were watching a Mariners game, and he asked his dad who the third "basement" was.
