Inappropriate things you've laughed at

    Good evening all

    As usual in college today I walked past a drinking fountain on my way into the lecture theater but for the first time ever I saw a coloured lad using it. I then recalled a picture from my leaving cert history book of a coloured man in America at a drinking fountain with a sign saying "for coloured only". After thinking of this I chuckled to myself for a moment but then I remembered that that was a terrible time in the history of the United States so I stopped.

    The attached picture is very similar to the one in the book as far as I remember.

    So people of AH what have you laughed at that you shouldn't have?

    I came across this guy today calling a black guy a "coloured lad."

    I loled.

    :pac:

    Of a Sunday morning when I was a lad I would frequently be found standing at the back of the church in tears trying desperately yet failing to hold in convulsions of laughter at something that was probably not funny but seemed down right hilarious at the time.

    I know I shouldn't but I find this hilarious. Probably the most offensive song ever written. There are so many things wrong with it I don't know where to start.

    I'm coloured and can't see what's funny about it. In fact, I thought we were all coloured.

    My eyes are blue, lips red, my skin a pasty white with some brown spots, my hair snow white and the top of my knob a bluish red. Is that coloured enough?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34,809 ✭✭✭✭smash


    I laught at pretty much anything that's inappropriate. My friend got pregnant recently and another made gave out to me because I wanted to give her a card that said "you'll make a great single mom"

    Was on a camping holiday in France when I was a kid and there was like a communal tv room on the site. I sat there laughing my head off at an overdubbed episode of 'Rosanne'. The overdubbing seemed hilarious to me. The other people there were looking at me like I was crazy.

    When I went to see the south park movie I was the only person to laugh at the get behind the darkies bit. What felt like every person in the cinema was looking directly at me.

    Good Times :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    I switched on Fair City the other night to see a guy with two small arms and I laughed, totally inappropriate and I felt guilty after it :o

    But it got me thinking, how bad is Irish acting talent if they had to get a deformed English actor for an Irish soap :confused: Unless his disorder was part of a storyline.

    This is the guy and I am sorry for laughing, not sure what came over me

    So OP, what colour was this, um... "coloured guy"?

    Did he have a grey tint or a hint of blue?

    Are you sure he wasn't black?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,770 ✭✭✭Jen Pigs Fly


    I laughed during 'My left foot'
    A lot ...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,244 ✭✭✭Boscoirl


    On a school tour many years ago to some factory in Shannon(exciting I know, but anything to get out of class) The woman giving the tour said they take a "hands on approach" to something didn't catch the rest of the sentence, it took all my efforts not to burst out laughing at her, I have no idea why I found this funny but I did

    I also giggled during the fight scene at the end of Gangs of New York, where everything was blowing up around them, my friends thought it sounded evil and sadistic.

    Getting the giggles at a relatives funeral:pac:

    When my beloved grandmother passed away.....early one December, as her eldest granddaughter (and very close to her indeed :-) I was expected to do the whole rose into the grave....no bother, it was my honour....however I was recovering from a broken foot and I was in one of those old graveyards that are all uneven and you must climb over graves (as best you can) to get to your own plot. I thought of this but dismissed it as our family plot is very nearly on the pathway....so I struggled there with a big cast on me left foot and as I leaned forward to sadly say my final farewell...my brother, behind me, slipped bumped into me and away I went head first, crutch and all on top of Granny :eek::eek::eek:

    Handicapped as I was, I was of no help to myself in getting out and in the end it took 4 lads and about 10 minutes to haul me out:eek: So there I am face down in the hole, sniggering to be clearly heard above me......People had to go home and change their underwear after that funeral!!

    Why did Sally fall off the swing?
    Because she had no arms

    Why couldn't Sally get back up?
    Because she had no legs

    Why didn't anyone help Sally?
    Because she had no friends

    That attention to detail is what I need in order to get a proper reaction from that story. As the rule goes here, if he was black... I'm not allowed to laugh. :D

    Next door neighbour was arguing with her daughter about 2 weeks ago. Mother was sitting in drivers seat of car yelling "will you hurry up and get into the the fookin car", daughter rushs and jumps in and with that mammy tears off and out flys her daughter, the poor youngone did'nt even have time to close her door and belt up :D.

    I would'nt have laughed so hard if it was a child but she was in her late teens. Priceless

    When I was a lot younger, my friends gran who had Alzheimer's disease constantly asking the same questions about me.
    But I was 10 so, it's not too bad.

    Sometimes I get the giggles at funerals though, that's quite bad!

    About 5 years ago, myself and a friend were standing outside school waiting to be collected. We were about 17 at the time. There were 3 girls, I'd say about maybe 14, after crossing back across the road from the garage to the school. The only thing standing in the way of them getting onto the grounds was a 4ft wall. So the first girl climbed over without too much hassle, and the other two looked to follow suit. Only problem was though, one of them was a big girl. She was unable to climb onto the wall and instead decided to roll over the top of it. My friend and myself were in absolute stitches! We couldn't stand up straight for about 5 minutes. The girls, who were about 60 yards away heard us laughing, and even worse they had to walk past us. To this day one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

    My father's funeral.
    Us, the kids, had done the carrying the coffin thing into and out of the church, but we yielded to some very old friends of his from the hearse to grave (church was about a mile away so we drove/walked).
    So they get him out of the hearse, but somehow manage all to be facing the wrong way (which is the right way?!)
    Undertaker guy, nice and quietly like says they'll the wrong direction and tries to get them turned around.
    Ken, who's a ledgebag, lets out a roar, "No we're not, I'm bringing him up to the pub for one last drink".
    Cue probably 2-300 people absolutely roaring laughter. Completely innapropriate, but it was quite.. cathartic or something on such a sombre day.

    It's hard to find Holocaust jokes funny when you've lost a grand parent to it :rolleyes:

    When foreign people pronounce english words in a hilarious way.:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,382 ✭✭✭lastlaugh


    I had a manual labour job a few years ago in a big yard. We had to unload 40 foot containers into trucks.
    Anyway, one day one of the blokes nearly got squashed between a truck and container and had to throw himself on the ground for fear of his life. It was a big fall, about 10 foot down and he was in bits when he hit the ground.

    There he was shouting and holding onto his back when the 'Safety' officer came over. Then he does what any highly skilled medic would do and starts trying to yank yerman up and telling him he'd 'be grand'.

    I was in absolute stitches, it was so wrong but God Damn it was funny.

    Only in Ireland I'd imagine that would happen.

    Saw a lad with those short arms at a bus stop a while back. Didn't laugh until one of my friends asked us "How would you say he wipes his arse?" We all creased up.
