I met a man who was wearing a belt made out of watches.
It was a waist of time.

I recently found a book called Just My Typo; a compilation of howlers of various kinds. Among them were examples of articles that suddenly switched topic by accident. I offer this one.

So the congregation decided on a European trip for their beloved pastor, and on Saturday made him acquainted with the delightful fact. Accompanying the report of the committee was a nicely-filled purse, which was placed at the disposal of the pastor, who, after thanking them, made a turn down South Main Street as far as Planet, then up Planet to Benefit Street, where he was caught by some boys, who tied a pan to his tail. Away he went again, up Benefit Street and down College, at the foot of which he was shot by a policeman.

From a recent Skype exchange...

Other Poster: I just found out that there is a museum by the name Dracula Experience Ltd in Newburyport. Maybe they have some garlic?

Me: Mark, I thought the Dracula Experience Ltd was a stake house.

I wonder whether "everything sucked!" would be considered a positive review?

While on YouTube I chanced on a scene from one of the films in the Equalizer franchise, in which the titular character McCall (Denzel Washington) is quietly reading a book in a diner when a gunman threatens him. McCall knocks out the gunman... using the book.

I posted this comment: "I'm imagining McCall's review of the book afterwards: "Powerful, hard-hitting... I couldn't put it down.""

hahahaha love it "Really hits you where you live", does it?  (I don't know the movies, so I don't where the book impacted.)

What did one tectonic plate say when it bumped into another?
“Sorry, my fault!”.

A man's boss falls ill and passes away.
He goes to the funeral, kneels down in front of the coffin
and says, "Who's thinking outside of the box now Carl?"
