Things that make me laugh

A short list of funny things floating through my mind:

  • "Tap it up"
    Some months ago, our car blinkers were on the blink (haha). Sam, who drives the car more than me, advised me to, "Tap it up," while making the appropriate motion with his left hand. He didn't intend it to be funny, but I sure found it such. Even now, just saying, "Tap it up," makes me laugh until I cry.

  • The guy with the dramatic eyes on Project Runway - you know who I'm talking about

  • Thinking about a particular exchange between Sam and my Mom: when she visited summer before last, he attempted to bring her up to date on some pop culture and played her a Missy Elliott song. And then, without provocation, started to explain what the elephant sound indicated. (Aarooo.... Get it?...) My conservative husband. To his mother-in-law. Until he realized what he was doing.

  • Love is in the Heir

    I don't remember. Enlighten me again. Perhaps, past a certain age, pop culture just does not stick to the brain cells. Sorry, Sam, I obviously didn't get it.
