PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Top Ten "LOL" Moments." |
Many of us here get a smirk, chuckle and, at our best, a full-on grin at life's funnier moments. But a full-on, laugh-out-loud, belly-shaking side-acher? IMHO, those moments are rare; therefore, I dedicate this thread to the truly, funny "times of my life". In honor of those who have made me snort milk out of my nose, this is my list. In no particular order: 1.)"The Simpsons". Specifically, the "Some Enchanted Evening" episode. Season One. Penny Marshall as the "Babysitter Bandit". Funniest.Episode.Ever. 2.) The movie "The Jerk". Steve Martin is the comedic icon. Period. 3.) The movie "This Is Spinal Tap". Just a glimpse into the genius whose name is Christopher Guest. 4.) George Carlin's comedy album "Class Clown", along with his "Operation Foole" follow-up. Seven dirty words and Catholic school up-bringing were never funnier! 5.) Woody Allen. The movie "Sleeper". I can name at least 4 or 5 of his movies that had me on the floor, but THIS one is the keeper! (His latest, "Anything Else", is pretty damn funny too!) 6.) Rowan Atkinson's stand-up performances. The man is under-rated to the point of sinful. 7.) BuckyKatt and Greenmonstah. Truly, OT's Burns and Allen. 8.) "Monty Python's Flying Circus". The T.V. series. Yeah. The movies were great, but the Sunday night series ROOOOOLED!!!! ("This parakeet I bought from you seems to be dead.") 9. "Curb Your Enthusiasm". (Which "curbs" in with about 70% of all the "Seinfeld" episodes). Dry, sarcastic, dead-pan, bitter New Yorker humor at its best! Larry David is Woody Allen's closest Jewish comedic rival! (No offense to the OT'ers of the Jewish faith!) 9.(a)Most closely tied with? FOX's "Arrested Development". Two words - Jeffrey Tambor! 9.(b)Next most closely tied with? HBO's "The Larry Sanders Show". Two words... AGAIN!... Jeffrey Tambor! 10.) My husband John! I wish you all could meet and hang out with him! He makes me laugh every, single day! 15 years together and he STILL cracks me up!!! * * * Bonus question - Which SNL season is your favorite? Me? It will always be the first "Original-not-ready-for-prime-time" cast. Belushi ROCKS!!! Go Redskins! Behold the power of Gothmog
Please consider this an "open" thread! Don't respond to ME... respond with your own "Top Ten"!

*waves* to Wanda and Johnny. Wanda, you've given me many LOL moments here at OT! Thanks!The biggest LOL moment I had here was reading Bravey's *poot* story. I tried reading it to my hubby but I couldn't as I was laughing/crying too hard. *waves* to Bravey! Agree, SNL with Belushi was the best. I also love Dana Carvey. My hubby also cracks me up often. He's so silly *ghoulishly brought to you by Phoenix Mons*

I agree with you on many counts Wanda, especially how much greenmonstah makes me LOL on a daily basis."Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" is Steve Martin at his best, and having him play off of Michael Caine was priceless. "A Fish Called Wanda". Otto - "Avoid the green ones, they're not ripe yet". SNL the early years was groundbreaking and HILARIOUS. Jim Belushi and Gilda Radner are sorely missed. The first season is my favorite. Anything Monty Python. "Red Dwarf". Man, I love British humor. Since we're getting into the holiday season, I have to add "A Christmas Story". It cracks me up each and every time I watch it. And I watch it a lot. Ellen DeGeneres. The lady is a hoot and never fails to make me LOL. a Gothmog original

Best Steve Martin movie, "The Jerk"--I was born a poor black child. --I'm in the phone book! --All I need is my thermos, my chair, my paddle ball game, my dog... GRRRRR... Well, not my dog... All I need is my thermos, etc. Love John Belushi! & Eddie Murphy, Chevy Chase, Gilda Radner... *sigh* SNL is not like it used to be! Also! The movie Office Space! --I believe you took my stapler. --I was told I could listen to the radio at a reasonable volume between the hours of 9 and 11." --I'm gonna need ya ta go ahead and come in on Saturday, ummmm kkkk? I'm just a squirrel trying to get a nut.

I just remembered this one. If I had been posting back when this had happened, this story would have been thread worthy!One of the questions that I am NOT allowed to ask Mr Monstah is: "Do you know what you are doing?" That is a big no-no. Well, when we lived in the city we had a roof deck that he insisted needed to be re-stained. So, he went out and bought this stain gun. Well, the stain gun looked mighty powerful and I was immediatley concerned upon seeing it. But! According to our pact, I am forbidden to ask him if he knows what he is doing.... In one of those, I wish I were a fly on the wall moments, the gun thing exploded on him and it...for lack of a better term...stained his face a cherry-wood red color. It took several showers and days to get it off. That weekend, in addition to not being allowed to say the aforemmentioned phrase, I was also not allowed to tell people that my husband stained himself. (*smirk*) The good old days...
