This is not just another post-anesthesia video. Those are funny, but they’re also often pretty predictable.
This, this is a whole new level of funny.
From the description…
This hilarious video is of my son Cameron after getting his wisdom teeth removed. Although he’s 18, I had NEVER heard my son say a swear nor say the “N” word in my presence until this day!
And boy did he bring it all out!
He starts out talking about his “shaky, stanky, wanky leg” and it just gets better from there…

In the ongoing and increasingly successful social-linguistic campaign against the use of the word retarded, the folks at Military Special Needs Network have put together this helpful flowchart for figuring out when it’s an appropriate choice of vocabulary…

For one year, 23-year-old Yale grad Greg Hindy didn’t utter a single word. Not when he became lost in a snowstorm in Zion National Park, or even when he collapsed of food poisoning in Salt Lake City and was brought to the hospital.
Hindy had taken on a vow of silence: for 365 days, he would trek across the United States without using any technology, relying on the kindness of strangers…
When this contestant was asked about the idiom “Guilt trip” on a recent episode of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, he got it right. Because it’s a really easy question.
But it’s too bad that the other options are “wrong.” They’re all incredible and we should start using them. Because, really, who hasn’t been on a shamecation?
As the narrator for a BBC documentary about the South Pacific, Benedict Cumberbatch was expected from time to time to mention penguins. Despite his assignment, he just couldn’t do it.
Pengwings and penglings were discussed, yes. But not penguins…
If you’re angry at your coworker, but are at a loss for words, let Shakespeare be your guide. Follow his lead and your words will definitely cut them to the quick…
