The utterly ridiculous / hysterical comments your friends come out with, in which you seriously question if they live on the same planet as you...[lighttheart]

My friend said this utter gem last week...

'I'm buying DS a 2nd pair of Wellingtons as I don't have an Aga to help dry out the wet pair....'

Another friend

'I don't think one should children until you can afford childcare'....Que me nearly spitting out my drink...

Cat I know a MW who proudly claims she uses the mini size because she has a tiny vagina. Well meaning but thick, she is.

Can someone explain the elephant plane catchphrase thing to me please? I'm puzzled!

Jumbo jet!

Jumbo jet

I've read the word Buffalo so often it is started to look made up now

Water Buffalo, scary enough to milk

Milk this? You've got to be f'ing kidding me!

Jumbo Jet, Pistachio. Don't worry - I had to wrack my brains to work it out too!

A friend once told me that she didn't believe in dinosaurs

I can't believe how many of you didn't get Jumbo Jet!

Blatherskite my friend is a high school science teacher, you wouldn't believe how many of her pupils refuse to acknowledge the existence of Dinosaurs.

Matildaandthematches A friend, while at university studying history, asked us 'who was on the throne in the Victorian era'.
That would be the late great King Victor right? (only messing)

I know people who insist the dinosaur fossils were planted, by a creator, as a test of faith.

Me to a friend when I first bought sanpro with wings "not buying those again, they're crap and it really hurts when you take the towel off"
I had been putting the damn things on upside down and stuck the wings to what turned out to be a very sensitive (and rash prone) area...

have only read op but we only started trying for children once we knew we could afford for me to go parttime and could afford childcare. is that weird? I thought it was sensible!

Dsis and I watchinng a documentary about adult conjoined twins:

Dsis " I'm glad we're not conjoined twins - what would happen about work?""
Me "We'd have to have the same job, obviously"
Dsis "But you work in a nightclub, and I'm only 17. Can't see you being happy to just work in New Look on Saturdays - you'd be well skint"

LaQueen I know a couple of people who didn't know that Jesus would have been Jewish, even more worryingly I know of a local Pastor (evangelical church) who tells his congregation that he definitely wasn't! My old neighbour went to his church and refused to believe me when I told her...

When I was about 12 or 13

The whole family sitting down to play Trivial Pursuit and this question came up -
"In what game are your balls green and yellow and your opponents balls blue and red?"
Me - Boxing!

(The actual answer I believe was croquet )

My best friend is in college and they were talking about breast feeding and her (male) tutor said that you shouldn't breast feed as it can cause breast cancer what with the baby knocking the boobs about

Playing a question game a good few years ago -

Q- what comes in pairs ?

Somebody me - Pips

It still gets mentioned now & was 18 years ago

WAIT. Rewind please.

What are tampon sizes based on then?

Oh..

My DB when a teenager came home from schoolbook shopping in town and said "The religion book called 'To Be Decided Later' wasn't in stock anywhere".

He was about 16.
