Friend of mine has a phone which has a small flashing green light on the top, and while we were out at the pub one night his sister looked at the little light for a while and said:

"does that light tell a deaf person if the phone is ringing?"

I told her about the shop down the skreet but she don't spend money on that kinda thing. Says that kinda thing doesn't do much for her and is a waste of money. I told her that cell-phone cases protect your phone but she didn't want to hear it. So she keeps it in her box. I dunno, maybe she's old fashioned. I had an aunt once that was a pack rat. I found 16 stuffed animals, stuffed inside a stuffed animal once. It was pretty intense. Most blue things are like that. That's why there's blue flavored popsickles but they never call it any kind of fruit... I mean, you know the red one is cherry... the orange is orange... the green is lime... and the purple is grape. But the blue one doesn't taste anything like blueberries, so we bought a George Foreman grill. Sometimes my uncle borrows it, but when he returns it there are curly hairs on it. It's pretty embarrassing, because I'm pretty sure he isn't black. So I don't know what's up with that.

A girl in math class asking about a comma:

"what's that wierd squiggly dot thing?"

A guy on the lift with me watching my friend ski switch (backwards) down the hill:

"Oh my god what the hell is that kid doing!! You're not supposed to ski backwards! What is he doing-wait, he's gonna go off that jump, how does he expect to be able to go off that jum- huh...he landed it..."

I really get annoyed with stupid people who are completely ignorant of skiers in the park, so it's always fun to watch them make complete idiots of themselves, like in this next scenario:

My friend and I were filming in the park, and this old guy and his little kid decide to take a nice leisure run through the park, which is annoying enough since they always cut across the landning and piss us all off. So I'm standing next to this dad and his kid waiting to film my buddy hitting the rail, and we see a boarder hit it first. so overhear the kid ask his dad, "dad, can skiers go on rails too?" the dad, being the ignorant fool that he is, says, "of course not son, rails are only made for snowboarders" Now I'd caught this whole exchange on camera, and my buddy decided that was his cue to hit the rail, perfect technique on the down-flat-down rail, and an unbelievably smooth, stylie 270 off. I turned my camera on to the dad and said, "so what was that about skiers not being able to hit rails?" then switched off the camera, and skied down to get ready to film the next hit. I love it when we can do things like that.

another:

"Didn't hairet tubman invent the bathtub?"

I don't know if the kid was joking when he said this or not, but knowing him he wasn't.
