[–]Dildo_Ball_Baggins 1 point2 points ago

He is persistent. I first saw this shit about 2 months ago.

[–]YHZ 2 points3 points ago

Originally from Police Squad. Only lasted 6 episodes, but worth the watch!

[–]4LostSoulsinaBowl 10 points11 points ago

... Well

[–]RiddimSystem 1 point2 points ago

That line is actually from police squad! a television series starring Mr. Nielsen.

[–]RiddimSystem 0 points1 point ago

just did some more research. That was the first time the joke had been used, it was later used in the film The Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult

[–]Mr_A 0 points1 point ago

Practically every joke from Police Squad! was used in the Naked Gun films.

"got a light?" (asking for a lighter for her cigarette.. He pulls out a flashlight)

"how about a match" "no thanks I have plenty" (he whips out a full pack of matches then slides them back in his pocket)

Llamas has 2 l's.

[–]shelldog 14 points15 points ago

[–]Black_Apalachi -1 points0 points ago

Llamas had two Ls has no apostrophe.

[–]ItsAltimeter 1 point2 points ago

I'm pretty sure a single apostrophe is appropriate for the pluralization of a letter. I think I learned that in English class.

It's possible my teacher lied to me, so I'll look for a source.

Edit: Found it

[–]flappity 0 points1 point ago

That only says for pluralizing lower-case letters; you'd use an apostrophe when discussing q's, but not Qs.

I think Qs looks bizarre compared to Q's, though. I will always apostrophize when pluralizing capital letters and years.

[–]Saerain 0 points1 point ago

Well, that's silly. I hereby place selective pressure against this silly trait. Viva la evolución!

Fuck that whore. To the people who think she's a hero, read up on what she did. They stole the ever loving shit out of the money that was supposed to be for the families. The movie, which most of you base your entire opinion of her on, is a complete lie.

Ugh. My girlfriend does this to me all the time. Early in the mornings when I'm still groggy from waking up:

"Want me to make you coffee, hun?" "Yes, please, that would be amazing." "Poof! You are now coffee!" "...Please just make me some fucking coffee."

[–]Arctic_ 6 points7 points ago

Don't mess with a man's coffee in the morning. This is how people die.

[–]soapinthepeehole 21 points22 points ago

I love waving at people hailing cabs. High fives if I'm on my bike. It may not be original, but I'm still entertained.

[–]10after6 2 points3 points ago

I live near a tourist town and noticed that when people are filming their KODAK MOMENT they don't pay attention to anything in the background. So I always smile and wave. I wish I could be next to them when they view the vids at home, and hear them saying, "who the hell is that"

He got fired remember?

[–]Weegemonster5000 0 points1 point ago

I heard about that. He really shouldn't drink at work like that.

[–]GuantanaMo 7 points8 points ago

Happened to me, just reversed. A few weeks ago - I was out drinking with some friends - we were just crossing the street when some taxi driver shouted "taxi!", we were quite confused. I automatically answered "pedestrian!", before I recognised him as my brother-in-law, who happens to be a taxi driver.

[–]unplayed 2 points3 points ago

Was I not the only one expecting a joke regarding cheese?

[–]Take42 9 points10 points ago

Wow this was an inside joke with a friend and I for the longest time. It's a thing? It's a thing!

[–]eddanger 6 points7 points ago

Came expecting cheese pun.

Was disappointed.

[–]TheTroopper 2 points3 points ago

Post! Comment!

[–]Kiangel 3 points4 points ago

I work in retail, and people so regularly come up to me and just say things like "felt" or "bells". I wish so desperately I could say things like "dragon" or "tornado" to make the customers learn some manners. It's funny and frustrating at the same time. Damn you customer service!

[–]JDMcWombat 5 points6 points ago

"Can I have a coffee, black?"

"Can't you see I'm talking, white?"

Someone who needs to go into the city for some reason? No wait, you'd've ordered a taxi, wouldn't you. Hmm. Kif, we have a conundrum.

[–]HarvieH 0 points1 point ago

I do when I am getting tired of walking and a taxi just happens to drive by with no one in it.

this was also tried in a tv series in turkey, we all thought it was the screenwriter who had the original idea. turkey fails badly again.

What if he does it for the lulz...but also picks them up for the money...?

[–]MayorBee 2 points3 points ago

How much purple rainbow sherbet would one have to consume for this to happen? I'm curious...for science.

[–]weshallrise 0 points1 point ago

Truthfully, I was usually either done with my shift or on my way to get a "personal" (someone I know who called my cell). I mean, money is money after all! Still, it was hilarious to see the looks on their faces!

Enjoy that rainbow sherbert, yo!

[–]Rikkoe 0 points1 point ago

reminds me of when i was about 17 or so.. my friends and i were crossing this bridge that was being worked on at the time and prohibited pedestrians for the time being. I for the longest time have felt that the word "pedestrian" sounded like a type of religion. well during said crossing of the bridge at around 2AM a man yelled out at at us "No pedestrians!" without skipping a beat I retorted "No im Christian!!" and tried not to die laughing with my friends..

Hmmm, the car wasn't a taxi... He should have called her a nurse.

[–]poopy_pains 0 points1 point ago

'Cept the concept of the person offering the ride and the person asking. One must throw out the entire concept that the person offering the ride is doing so for money, and the participant offering to pay for a ride is again willing to pay. Then if one does so (throw out the concept of money in lieu of a society strictly based on the concept of simply helping another individual -- not such as the HOV conundrum of today, this is again both parties profiting -- this is strictly an act of sociopathic behavior. Shirley you know this.

[–]sschudel 0 points1 point ago

I was working as kitchen staff at a traditional Irish pub on St. Patrick's Day when an obviously inebriated lady ordered some fish and chips. My buddy delivered her food and the following transpired:

Lady: This is ten dollars!?

Buddy: No, that's fish and chips. Ten dollars looks like money.

Everyone within ten feet laughed and the woman walked away without another word.

[–]caroline_reynolds 0 points1 point ago

I'm a supervisor at a university saferide service, and students try to flag us down all the time, even though you have to call in for a ride. We also have people who vomit in our cars, throw things in our cars, stalk our drivers...crazy stuff. But then there's fun people too, I've made several good friends just because I drive them places so often.

We have an employee newsletter and I put this illustration in it last month. For drivers, it's comic gold.

I drive a taxi, and I'm often tempted to wave enthusiastically at people who are waving "enthusiastically" at me.

[–]lection -2 points-1 points ago

Does anyone actually call out "taxi"?

This happens all the time in movies, but I've never seen it occur in real life.

[–]Black_Apalachi 4 points5 points ago

I love it when they whistle in a busy street and a cabbie flying along the other side of the road somehow not only hears it, but pinpoints its origin.

[–]Lucky_Striker 0 points1 point ago

I do. I wave my arm as well, stepping out half a step from the sidewalk with a 1/8th turn towards the cab. Just like in the movies. Life imitates art.

[–]kipz0r 0 points1 point ago

It reminds me of a cartoon in the 90's in Holland, made by Hein de Kort. It's very crude, but that is how he draws.

caption sais "Taxi!", "Fat woman!". Somehow it makes it funnier if the woman is fat.
