Decidedly American Humor


h1 Posted 2 months, 3 weeks ago around lunchtime by oso

Today, sitting on a park bench, digging into my first bite of chicken gyro, half a tomato still hanging from my mouth, I began to grin. And then laugh, first on the inside, and then noticeably so. Very noticeable. The laugh turned into a guffaw, turned into hooting, howling, knee-slapping, tee-heeing, can’t-hold-it-in cracking up. Right there on a park bench, for all of Budapest to walk by, to shake their heads in sympathy at the schizophrenic American youth.

All because I remembered a comment seen on a picture of one of my flickr buddies. So, here is the photo:

And here is the comment:

OMG…is that Rosie O’Donnell buttsexing that young girl in the front row??!?!!?

If that makes anyone else laugh out loud, please let me know. I won’t feel like such a weirdo.

Update: Context here.

    All ‘wierdos’ take one step forward.

    * leaps forward *

    This shot could be the beginning of a new book series, a la Where’s Waldo - ‘Who is Rosie buttsexing next?’

    Totally LOLed. It’s lonely when you’re in Europe and no one understands how incredibly funny comments like that are…I know the feeling.

    Been 3 min since I read the comment and I am still smiling. It seems that she ’s also taping the action on her phone for D. Trump’s viewing pleasure.

    I guess that makes me as weird as you.

    You know… first you wrote about the bleaching in that area now you have sexing in that area… hmmm. I can imagine the searches.

    I was reading it thinking that’s not funny, but then heard myself laughing out loud. Repeatedly. Ay.

    Using “buttsexing” as a verb alone is hilarious, but the visual definitely gives it an added kick. I giggled despite (or because of?) 6:00am sleepiness.

    re: Dr. Cereal - I’m strong advocate of turning nouns into verbs… I mean… verbing nouns. And because it is tangentially related to the post, here is the reCAPTCHA that I was presented with to submit this comment:

    Re: Greg - How appropriate. (Or should it be vitally weinering?).

    …And my giggling ensues.
