STUPID HEADLINES 072014
It is time once again for
Funny how that happens |
STUPID HEADLINE SUNDAY
This week’s stupid headlines and my
stupider sophomoric and sometimes offensive comments.
One headline may be completely made up, guess the fake and win a
mention and a Whoop-tee-do. 'None of the above' may be a correct
answer.
_____________________________
Saudi women are
allowed to cycle; but only around in circles – So the women’s
movement isn't going anywhere in Saudi Arabia.
9-year-old drives grandpa's Jeep into house
– I had to wait until I was 12
before my Grandpa let me drive his Jeep into the house.
Intoxicated South River man arrested for
breaking into his own house – Well he thought he was breaking into his neighbor’s house.
Archie Andrews will die taking bullet for
gay friend, comic publisher says – What does “taking a bullet” mean in gay code?
Woman
sprays police with breast milk – “Get back! I’ve got titties and
I’m not afraid to use them.”
Iowa Senate candidate Braley threatened
lawsuit over chicken in his yard – An Iowa Senator complaining about a chicken is kinda like
the Mayor of NYC complaining about street noise.
Sharon Stone is worried about how her butt
looks – Damn, I got
99 problems but my butt ain't one!
Connecticut man arrested after stabbing
watermelon – He is
claiming self-defense…alcohol may have been a factor.
Company limits bathroom breaks to 6
minutes a day – Bad news for
old people! It takes me 6 minutes to find my fly.
Pilot mistake means Ping-Pong balls rain on
highway – OK, now I
believe in Climate Change!
Rapper Andre Johnson explains why he severed
his penis – I’m
sorry, there is no possible explanation what-so-ever.
Smelling Passed Gas May Prevent Cancer and Other Diseases – Smelling passed gas, or poor health, which is it? That is a tough call.

Last week’s fake was:
Astronomers decide Pluto might be a Planet after all – It will always be Mickey’s dog to me.
And the winners are:
i'm going for pluto just to give it a bit of limelight...
Great photos and stuff at the ranch @ http://run-a-roundranch.blogspot.com/
Astronomers decide Pluto might be a
Planet after all
No they didn't; it's way too soon to say they were wrong.
Sorry I didn't jump in last week; I knew the answer. Or did I?

Visit Joanne for wisdom and some
sneaky wit @ http://cuponthebus.blogspot.com/
I'll go with, "Astronomers
decide Pluto might be a Planet after all".
Have a fabulous Silly Sunday. :)Funny silly Sunday stuff @ http://comedyplus.blogspot.com/

I'll piggy back
onto those who chose the Pluto one. Personally, I'm a liberal and I don't think
it possible to heap enough abuse onto the half-term gov. of Alaska, a state
built and maintained on Federal dollars. But enough of that. Happy Weekend
A liberal poke on Stupid
Headline Sunday? He is still real talented so visit Stephen @ http://www.chubbychatterbox.com/
I'm copying Joanne.
Pluto. Actually I guessed that earlier today... But I wasn't sure what the
demoted planet was.. Uranus? Jk.
She peaked in Jr. High, but she is
still worth a visit! @ http://peakedinjuniorhigh.blogspot.com/
I've gotta stick
with my science roots and pick "Pluto is again a planet" as the fake.
The basis for declaring it not a planet was its wonky orbit. I doubt that it
has straightened up and is flying right.
She was not her class Victorian for
nothing, find out why @ http://unbaggingthecats.blogspot.com/
Tough choices. I
was down to two Thicke vs. Pluto and I am going with the latter. I think Pluto
is permanently out of the plant club.
You never know what you will get, but
it is always a Slam Dunk @ http://theslamdunktrove.blogspot.com/
I hate it when the
readers kick my fake headline butt!
Here is a special
shout out to Pixel. She missed the fake
but made up for it with a funny comment.
I'm going with the
14,000 draft notices. And I think Sarah Palin is amazing...in the way that
every time she opens her mouth, an entire scrabble game falls out.
I had to respond:
That is just mean
Pixel, and not true. The entire game does not fall out, she is missing the I
and the Q.
Visit all the
winners and Pixel too, and come back next week for more
STUPID HEADLINE SUNDAY!!
good golly, i was in a crowd of right folks last week! :) the palin exchange was too funny.
ReplyDeletei'm gonna pick the gas pass.
Well, I really don't know since some of these are way over the top. I'm going to go with, company limits bathroom breaks to 6 minutes a day. I just can't see how you could enforce this.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous Silly Sunday. ☺
What exactly would you have to seed a cloud with to get it to rain ping pong balls? That sounds like a science fair project that went awry.
ReplyDeleteI pick making up even more stupid answers. I think Sara Palin and the scrabble game is priceless.
ReplyDeleteWatermelon stabbing.
ReplyDeleteI'm going with the ping pong ball one. Several of the most outlandish ones on your list I recall reading and know they're true.
ReplyDeleteOh - thanks for the special shout-out!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea what to pick this week. Then I tried to picture Saudi women cycling. I just can't imagine it's possible to cycle in a burka. So I'm picking that as the fake.
Hm. I almost went for the Circling Saudi Cyclers, but I think I'll hitch my wagon to the Raining Ping Pong Balls. Unless he was supposed to drop them in another location, I think there's more that PILOT error involved for a load of ping pong balls to get loose and open up the airplane windows.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why I try to reason these things out. It is rarely effective.
All good and ridiculously possible, but smelling gas to prevent cancer. Hmmm...
ReplyDeleteLoved your opinions on each. Got a few LOLs.
Bicycling in circles. I believe they are permitted to drive a car there.
ReplyDeleteI must have missed too many news stories from last week because I am not confident at all this time around. I am sure that some of the celebs spend way too much time thinking about themselves so I am guessing it is dude arrested for "breaking into his own house." One can't be charged for breaking and entering if you, the owner, are giving consent.
ReplyDeleteCertainly, a male homeowner has been arrested more than once across the country for other stuff while "breaking into his own house"--but it is the other stuff that provides the actual legal charges.
Funny choices this week Joe.
I have no idea. You found some great ones, though. They all are absolutely insane. And I'll be pissed off if they kill Archie Andrews off for any reason, so I hope that's the fake!
ReplyDeleteAnd no one commented on the woman who sprayed her breast milk at a cop??? I had to laugh to myself because being rather busty and having had 4 children.. Well, hey, that breast milk has a way of spraying everywhere! Just sayin' ;)
