Things I have Heard Wrong Lately
 |
I have remarkably inept ears. It isn’t that I have trouble hearing, mind you, I simply have occasional bouts of incomprehension. Here is a collection of things I thought I heard in the last week; about which I am most certainly mistaken. |
A sign on the road:
- Open Anus Urgent Care
- I suppose it would be!
A word overheard from a nearby conversation:
- Blacula!
- I believe this to be a movie starring an African American vampire, but I am not absolutely certain
A fragment of coversation I overheard whilst lunching at the Screaming Restaurant:
- Cosmonaut Cheesecake, Man!
- The Russians did have woman astronauts before we did. Can’t remember if any of them were hotties, but one can only hope.
From the TV show, Lost, spoken by Jack’s wife as she leaves him,
- (sobbing) You always need to have something to fix… pie…
- What could possibly be wrong with a man who fixes pies? I can’t believe she let that one get away.
An overheard, angry phone conversation at a client site:
- You’re just playing headcheese, baby.
- I hate when women do that!
I heard this one on the radio:
- Fertility with Agility - Pontiac
- Apparently GM is targeting the previously untapped “barren couples” demographic. God speed to them… God speed.

I have this very same problem where the brain didn’t quite hear what was said and fils in the blanks with what it thinks should be there.
I keep hooping to get an MP3 audio recorder so I can catch them all because - yeah - they make life really interesting!
i thought i heard that a deserter who can’t speak, who took cocaine and was a drunk driver
, who had only ever been as far as mexico, who failed at all his business ventures got to be president of the USA. i must have been dreaming.
Some women like playing with headcheese LOL.
but they look like such pretty, functional ears!
lyvvie: I’ve been thinking of calling a college and requesting an interpreter intern.
michael:Ha ha ha! That could never happen. That’s about as likely as electing a famous muscle-man as governer of the worlds third-largest economy.
LoriNFlorida:For culinary reasons or…other?
Transience:They work great! I think its the receiver that’s blown.
Blacula IS a movie.. i was just at circuit city tonight and i picked it up and looked at it..
interesting misinterpretations there… i do that too. what i hear is inevitably more interesting than what was said.
You believe I meant what I said, but what you do not realize is what I said was not what I meant.
