We're watching the Ohio State/LSU game tonight. Well, Bug's watching the game, I'm on SC, but I'm watching the commercials. Football games have the best commercials.

Have you seen the "Dude" commercial? I didn't know one word could have so many uses.
I think it's an ad for Miller beer, but I'm not sure. The commercial is so entertaining I didn't notice the product it was selling.
A guy says "Dude" about 10 times, for different situations, with different inflections. It's hysterical so I'm laughing my butt off.

My husband goes into the bathroom, and after a minute I hear "Hon, I want you to look at something for me."
Me: "I don't wanna."
Bug: "C'mon, I need your help."
He comes out with his jeans down to his knees and his tidy whiteys showing.

You know how a thousand thoughts can race through your mind in like a nanosecond?
I'm thinking...what the hell?...no, I've seen that...it can't have changed in 2 weeks...what the hell is he showing me? Tattoo? Ingrown hair? Hickey?
He shuffles over to me, turns around...I thought he was gonna moon me...so I yelled:
"DUDE!"
He starts laughing so hard he nearly fell out of his pants! I'm looking at him like he's crazy...I still don't know what he's doing or what he wants me to look at...
Turns out the back of his knee has been hurting since yesterday and he wanted to know if it was swollen. It wasn't. He's ok. Nuts..but ok.

    Those kinds of moments happen around here all the time, and I love these kinds of posts!  That was funny as all get out, as we (I used to) say in the south....

    waaaaa hgaaaaaaaa 32(*@&!^*()$#()* that was a well pronounced snarfaleptic fit! that is so funny!

    Once my husband and I were camping and I sat down had a sip of a beer and he asked me when I wanted to eat... it must have been the beer but I burped like a camel with a really bad case of belly rupture... it sounded like an ogre in pain not a burp he said the same thing....

    Of course you had to be there...

    My 11 year old has banned me from saying "Dude".
    He says it's too weird when I say it!

    Dude is a regular addition to conversations around our house.  It drives me a little nuts, but what's a girl to do?
     
    That's hesterical about your husband and his knee.  I don't know how many times I've been flashed by the man I'm with.  They're all so proud of themselves.  I can see how you thought that way.  Thankfully it was a legitamate question and not a plow to get another flashing in.

    Pretty interesting fella, your mate.

    have you seen the one where the guy says 'dude, the fist bump is out', the other one says 'what's in', and the guy slaps him? it's hillarious!

    Twylarants:   Yes, I am from the south--just had the fortune/misfortune of marrying a Yankee....ha..  We moved up here to New England a year and a half ago, and I guess this is where I will stay.  We have our crematory plots on hold in a nice cemetary overlooking a mountain.  Guess there are worse places to be...lol.  But I miss home----and my Mama's Banana Pudding!

    Trav~ My brain is twisted from all the name scrambling...I don't know if I've seen that one but now I'm gonna watch out for it.  I'm still cracking up over Twinklyfrantz!

    Womble~ I'd love to live in New England!  We used to vacation every summer in Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket...I miss the north so much, I'm such a Yankee!
    You wanna switch places?  I've been here 10 years and it's never felt like home to me.  But I think it's because I was almost 50 when we moved here.
  • wombat said on Jan 08, 2008....
    Twylarants:  Yes, it is beautiful up here.  It's just taking me some time to say this is home.  Like you, I moved here about the same age.
