Funny Video Showcase: The Saddest Inanimate Objects In The World

Giving new meaning to the term, "Objects of Amusement", this video showcases photos of several inanimate objects which appear to have sad faces, set, appropriately enough, to a humorous rap/ hip-hop song. Please enjoy!

Poor things, they look like they could use a hug...on second thought, considering that two of said items are a cactus and a rock respectively, that probably wouldn't be such a good idea after all! Maybe just some encouraging words?

A Funny Thing Happened on the way to the Book Store:Funny You Should Ask...Return of the Grin Vol.2

In yet further proof that truth is stranger than fiction, this book showcases many(very odd!) real-life questions asked at library reference desks. Such questions range from book title butcherings("Do you have the book Diarrhea of the Worm?" A.K.A Diary of a Worm by Doreen Cronin*), to vague("Can you help me find a book I checked out last year about a little girl? I think the title had a 'the' in it."), to non-book/info related("Could you please pop my popcorn?**"), to mispronunciations("Do you have any books about Michael Angelo?"), to quests for information that doesn't exist("Do you have a recent photo of Abraham Lincoln?***"), to obvious("I need to find the autobiography of Bill Clinton, but I don't know who the author is."), to so bizarre that they just can't be classified!("How many calories are in a mouse?****")

Oh. My. Goodgollygosh.

**Interestingly enough, the librarian who was asked to do this actually did it!

***This reminds me of that old joke:

By Shel Silverstein.

 



****This question was asked by a guy who had recently put his cat on a diet, and thought the cat was cheating by eating mice. The librarian thus reassured him that not only would a little mouse not have many calories, but that it was a good thing that the cat was catching mice.(Doesn't make the question any less odd though...)

A Funny Thing Happened On The Way to the Bookstore:Bloopers, Botches, and Blunders by Allan Zullo

As proof that truth is stranger than fiction, this is a collection of real-life stories of(hilarious!) mishaps that various people have met with, such as:

-The guy who was so hungry, waiting in line at a restaurant, that he ate the potted plants.

-The boxer who knocked himself out during a match.

-The lady who mistook glue for eyedrops.

-The time Ernest Borgnine ripped his pants wide open while acting in "Much Ado About Nothing."

-The restaurant called, "The Great Gritzbe's Flying Food Show", which was given a name change to "The Not-So-Great Gritzbe's" when business started sagging.

Who needs America's Funniest Home Videos when you've got this? :-D
