Friday Funnies
#Igotbusted
Jimmy Fallon asked his viewers to tweet #IGotBusted and share the most embarrassing times they got caught.
“I was on Facebook at work, and my boss walked up. I slammed down what I thought was my laptop screen, but it was actually my desktop monitor.”
“I lied and told my dad school was cancelled. He said, ‘Let’s go see a movie.’ We got in the car, and he dropped me off at school.”
“I was Facebooking in church, and the usher passed by and whispered, ‘You better be texting Jesus.’”
Total @mateur
A client called my help desk saying she couldn’t send an e-mail. When I was done troubleshooting the problem, she interrupted me to ask, “Wait a minute, do I type @ in lower- or uppercase?”
Flash Drive Failure
I’m at the library, and for some reason, when I plug my flash drive into the computer, it doesn’t show up. I keep trying, but nothing happens. As an IT major, I know I can figure this out. So I spend 15 minutes changing settings and inserting and removing the flash drive. Then a girl sitting next to me taps my shoulder and says, “You’re plugging into my computer, not yours.”
Mum says WHAT?
Texting acronyms can stump even the best parents:
Mum: Your great-aunt just passed away. LOL.
Son: Why is that funny?
Mum: It’s not funny, David! What do you mean?
Son: Mum, LOL means Laughing Out Loud.
Mum: I thought it meant Lots of Love. I have to call everyone back.

Daughter: I got an A in Chemistry.
Mum: WTF!
Daughter: Mum, what do you think WTF means?
Mum: Well That’s Fantastic.

Mum: What do IDK, LY & TTYL mean?
Son: I don’t know, love you, talk to you later.
Mum: OK, I will ask your sister.
What are my options?
Scene: Me using the Siri app on my iPhone.
Me: Siri, call my wife.
Siri: Samantha McLaughlin is not in your contacts.
Me: Samantha Gibbs is my wife.
Siri: I’ve added Samantha Gibbs as your wife.
Me: Call my wife.
Siri: Which wife?
You need a shorter password
While he was visiting, my father asked for the password to our Wi-Fi.
“It’s taped under the modem,” I told him.
After three failed attempts to log on, he asked, “Am I spelling this right? T-A-P-E-D-U-N-D-E-R-T-H-E-M-O-D-E-M?”
Love Lost on Craigslist
The ad for the 14k white gold engagement ring in “like-new condition” included a warning: It was worn “by Satan herself.” The ad then warned, “Ring may be cursed, as it tends to leave a path of destruction behind it. Possible events associated with this ring include but are not limited to: damage sustained to house, vehicle, heart, downed power lines, fallen trees, and swarms of locusts.” The upside: “Other than that, a very nice piece of jewellery.”
