Things that aren't supposed to be funny but are

Geek, er, Flyingcurser is feeling a bit flat this morning, so I though we could try to cheer him up with a list of unintentionally funny things.

This is a true story,I’m sure the lady in question wasn’t trying to be funny,but…
A friend of my grandmother’s who I’ll call “M.” bought a whistle.The next day she took it back to the store to return it. “It doesn’t play,” M. said. “All it does is squeak!”
The clerk told her “I think you have to cover and uncover the holes with your fingers.” :laughing:

Somebody telling me that I was looking good lately when they assumed my icon of Rachel Dratch was me (I use it other places besides here). It’s funny to me because I consider her one of the uglier specimens of humans I’ve ever seen (but also one of the funniest).
