The Most Obvious Punchline Ever

June 8th, 2009 by Riley

I admit it. I like a bad joke as much as the next six-year-old.

You know those jokes where you hear the punchline and you think “Who the hell laughs at this?” I am that person.

So, just one moment ago, Shawna gave me the most obvious setup ever. It was easier than a porn star on vacation at Hedonism. And you know what? I went for it anyway.

She was fanning me with a Condé Nast magazine, which is a whole other story. But, anyway, I put my hand up to stop her, because regardless of how diva-esque I can be, being fanned is a little over the top even for me. And she was all like “Put your hand down.” And I was all like “No. It’s weird.” And she was all like “Put your hand down dammit. I am going to fan you with this Condé Nasty.”

Then I said -

“I’m pretty sure that was Condoleezza Rice’s nickname on the hill.”

If any of you have been wondering why I haven’t explored a career in stand-up, this should really explain a lot.

    What, was that it? I think you left out some of the story.

    Did you hear Crystal Chappell is going back to Days of Our Lives? Sad times.

    Come on, Tara. That really wasn’t bad enough of a story to explain why I have no career in comedy. That is a truly, truly bad joke. And kind of in bad taste too, which was really the only worthwhile part of it.

    Thanks, ShayG… knew you’d have my back :)

    Yes, I heard the Crystal Chappell news. It didn’t take me terribly by surprise. I really didn’t see there being much hope once they announced GL’s cancellation.

    It also partially explains why we’re friends. :)
