This entry brought to you by late afternoon blahs.

So I was talking to forochel and it was pretty good! We talked about being gay and coming out and the Straits Times and other things, and I started talking about columnists I hated, and my least favourite kind of columns. Specifically those of the "men are from Mars, and women are from Venus" kind. And I said this:

"idk. usually it turns out, like: so women are neater/tidier/smarter/more put together than men (wink wink). but men are funny! I, a man, am funny! I am writing this column about how women are better and it's not sexist at all! but women are sooo uptight!"

So, you know, screw that shit. Let me put this another way: sometimes I am funny. Sometimes I am not! Sometimes I fail to see the inherent humour in something -- you know, you'll watch a video or look at a ridiculous picture and you'll be like, "Oh, this is okay," until someone's like "... PINK SOCKS. PINK SOCKS." and then you realise that pink socks are pretty ridiculous and funny! That's not just me, right? The Internet just makes things funnier some days!

But my point is. Fangirls are the funniest people I know, and we don't have to prove anything, but you should tell me a joke. Yes?

Personally, I think that I'm hilarious. Unfortunately, no one else does. (I'm one of those lame-os who says something and then laughs for like 10 minutes by herself.)

There was this really elaborate and really, really filthy joke I used to tell at school about a nun and a taxi driver, but I cannot for the life of me remember it.

I got sent out of a history class at college once after the dude next to me told me a really stupid not-even-joke in the middle of a lecture about Mussolini: A strawberry and an orange are sitting in a bubble bath. The strawberry says, "Could you pass the soap?" and the orange says, "I can't, I haven't got any arms!"

I cracked up because it was so rubbish and was made to stand in the hall for being disruptive. (I was 18, I might add.)

The other really stupid one I love is the interrupting starfish.

you: Knock knock.
them: Who's there?
you: Interrupting starfish.
them: Interrupting starfish wh-- *interrupted by you smooshing your palm into their face.*

INTERRUPTING STARFISH INTERRUPTING STARFISH. Amazing. I AM GOING TO TRY THIS OUT DURING THE WEEKEND. If people yell at me I'm going to blame you.

Also, y. I cannot tell you the NUMBER of times I have started telling some funny story ("funny" story, whatever) only to start giggling and disrupt myself. Meanwhile everyone waiting goes, like, "... :|".

FOR EXAMPLE, once I went to the toilet and heard the sound of water, and thought it was someone pissing really loudly. Then I realised it was raining. When I tried telling people about this particular moment of geniousity, I couldn't, because I was cracking up way too hard.
