I try to find humor whenever I can. Often, that results in sightings (or soundings, I suppose) that I unfortunately forget about sometimes.
Luckily, though, I do manage to capture photographic evidence at times of things in real life that just crack me up. I figured I'd share some of those pics (and explanations) because ... well, laughter is a valuable commodity.
Enjoy :-)
What about if you're just medium?
Henry and I went to a dive bar. There was a giant hot dog statue. Enough said ...
Another one that's hard to see, but we were leaving a restaurant parking lot, and there was a random guy sacked out on a bean bag chair in the woods ("woods" being a relative term, as this is a rather urban area for old New Hampshire). For some reason, it cracked us up.
I got an e-mail on my iPhone that read: "CONGRATULATIONS! Someone may have run a background check on you." Maybe it's just me, but I don't necessarily see that as something to be congratulated upon ...
I call this "The Robomney House" as it's a single residence with an equal number of Obama and Romney signs in the yard. I pulled over to take a picture, but the traffic was heavy so this was the best I could do. It is sooooooooo funny, though.
Pillow talk? In the children's section? Seriously?
Wisdom (or, uh, something ...) underneath a beer bottle cap.
I found these disks when I was cleaning out a desk. Is there ANY purpose for them anymore?
Belle brought home a coloring page labeled "hens" with a picture of what is clearly a rooster.
The "hard limits" delineated in Fifty Shades of Grey (reading this series was ... well, a cultural experience for me, I suppose, but I mean, come on ..."
These t-shirts were sold at the place where I went whitewater rafting in May ... I couldn't decide whether to laugh or cry, so I took a picture ;-)
Ah, Prestone, the stuff that evidently removes bugs AND tar? Who knew such a phenomenon existed?
The card companies are going waaaaaaaaaaay downhill, obviously (although, in the name of full disclosure, I was the recipient of this card)
My students think they're funny ... okay, finding a random human cardboard cutout (wearing a sombrero, no less) sitting at my desk was pretty funny, but ... surreal.
I'm sorry, but when the receipt says "Open food" and then puts "sweet pot fries" into the category ... well, I was having visions of brownies. Not THAT kind of vision ...
This was on a Burger King kid meal box ...
Hope you got a laugh or two ... and a message about the possibilities of finding humor in everyday life if you are willing to look for it :-)

I had never seen an extensive array of port-o-potties on a flatbed truck before. For some reason, it just about killed me ...
My brother Adam was hiking with my nephew when they came across a crushed empty of a can of beer called a "Natty Daddy". Needless to say, the name itself had us nearly peeing ourselves. Adam, being the amazing brother that he is, bought me one (it took quite a bit of searching, though ... and our review is that it tastes like water with a moonshine aftertaste--not that either one of us has ever had moonshine; you could just sort of tell ;-p)
One of my old friends texted me this pic from the San Diego Zoo ... it took me a minute to find what was so funny about it, but we've since decided that the new expression should be "hung like a zebra".
This is a horrible pic (taken when I was at a stoplight), but there is a red arrow denoting no left turn (which any licensed driver in the U.S. should be able to figure out) ... and apparently that wasn't enough, as there's also a sign saying, "No turn on red arrow". It made me wonder, are people seriously that stupid that they need a sign to emphasize a common knowledge driving law?Henry and I went to a dive bar. There was a giant hot dog statue. Enough said ...
