(LMAO) He had so much going on that it still is and is bound to continue...
I'm kind of glad that he liked pickles, too. While that was hilarious, threadwise, does it address why pickles are funny? |
Vlasic submarine slammed two gerkhins into our side, chief. It was comin' back, from the island of Oversized Picnic Foods, just delivered the mustard. The Hiroshima mustard. Eleven hundred men went into the water. Vessel went down in twelve minutes. Didn't see the first pickle for about a half an hour. Dill. Thirteen footer. You know how you know that when you're in the water, chief? You tell by lookin' from the stem to the other end. Well, we didn't know. `Cause our mustard mission had been so secret, no distress signal had been sent. They didn't even list us overdue for a week. Very first light, chief. The pickles come cruisin'. So we formed ourselves into tight groups. You know it's... kinda like `ol squares in battle like you see on a calendar, like the battle of Waterloo. And the idea was, the pickle would go for nearest man and then he'd start poundin' and hollerin' and screamin' and sometimes the pickle would go away. Sometimes he wouldn't go away. Sometimes that pickle, he looks right into you. Right into your eyes. You know the thing about a pickle, he's got...lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eye. When he comes at ya, doesn't seem to be livin'. Until he bites ya and those black eyes roll over white. And then, ah then you hear that terrible high pitch screamin' and the ocean turns red and spite of all the poundin' and the hollerin' they all come in and rip you to pieces.
Y'know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hundred men! I don't know how many pickles, maybe a thousand! I don't know how many men, they averaged six an hour. On Thursday mornin' chief, I bumped into a friend of mine, Herbie Robinson from Cleveland. Baseball player, Onion's mate. I thought he was asleep, reached over to wake him up. Bobbed up and down in the water, just like a kinda top. Up ended. Well... he'd been bitten in half below the waist. Noon the fifth day, Mr. Hooper, a Lockheed Ketchupa saw us, he swung in low and he saw us. He was a young pilot, a lot younger than Mr. Hooper, anyway he saw us and come in low. And three hours later a big fat PB&J comes down and start to pick us up. You know that was the time I was most frightened? Waitin' for my turn. I'll never put on mayo again. So, eleven hundred men went in the water, three hundred and sixteen men come out, the pickles took the rest, June the 29, 1945. Anyway, we delivered the mustard. |

I love pickles. They always make me laugh. But only the dill ones in all forms. Sweet pickles are enough to make my face turn inside out. Except the Sweet Pickles book series. Did anyone else have those as a kid? Nasty Nightengale and X-Rating Xerus were my favorites. http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/image...a9257010.L.jpg I used to have to have a pickle after dessert when I was a kid because I couldn't stand having the sweet taste left in my mouth. My family always laughed and hid the pickle jar from me. That was not nice. |

hahaha I almost posted that dancing pickle the other day but decided against it.. I crack up so much when I watch it.
|
fredweena! Your family hid the pickle jar from you?
that's just not nice at all. the humour of pickles was meant to be shared. i trust you had them liquidated for their insolence. |
|
Life was sweet for Pickleman. He seemed to relish his life as a harbinger of justice. That was until he met Dill. Getting mixed up in her embrace turned his whole life sour.
|
Chit, Charla, dill's a wonderful herb. I can't believe you even thought that.
Most pickles are only funny because of the dill they've absorbed. |
|
Just a reminder to fear the pickle... it is after your manhood.

Pickles are funny because they are neither raw nor cooked. Honest to god, that's what it is. Being neither, they are liminal, and liminal substances are either funny (Pickles, Playdough, sexual secretions) or revolting (vomit, feces, Balut) or both (mud, farts).
Now stick that in your Levi-Strauss and smoke it. |
mmm liminal goodness... now you can have it both ways.

Perhaps Giant Hamburgers issue with rats has started to leak into other threads...

Careful, my friends.
http://wwff.files.wordpress.com/2007/06/pickles.jpg\ Some girls really love their pickles. http://www.fyabulous.com/dollywood/pickle.jpg |
yeah yeah ...size matters
http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...cs2/pickle.jpg And I know this is not the "complaint thread" but I'm disappointed that all this talk of pickles is focusing on the cucumber and ignoring the vast variety of other very fine tasting pickled delicacies. So now I'm going out to have some pickled meat, pickled eggs, and other pickled vegetables. http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...f1bd3dd9b9.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...pics2/7150.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...vegetables.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...es-stall-0.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...d3d3a01e18.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...feet_combo.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...dPigsLips1.jpg |
For me it is the pickling of the humble cucumber that bring out the humour. But the fact is, you can pickle just about anything as long as you have the right spices...
http://www.fiery-foods.com/dave2/ima...ices_small.jpg But as you can see, the spices themselves have no humour. They are just dry ingredients. To be truly humourous you must add water to make a salty brine... |
Brine is the little known fifth humor.

I've been pickled a few times on very good Scotch.
|
Pickles are funny because they feel good.
|
I would like to feel a pickle ...or have some pickle juice
http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...JuiceSport.jpg |
How would you like to feel that pickle, BN? Tell us more about this fixation.
|
Bring on the sweet mixed!
|
close your eyes, run your fingers over that hard long green vegetable (I don't like soft pickles usually, unless they are chopped up and on a hotdog), feel the texture, taste it, the sour tanginess ...or if you prefer sweet pickles, that tangy sweetness; bite it, hear and feel the crisp break of the skin and the sudden penetration of your teeth into the meat of the matter, pickle that is; don't swallow it right away, chew it and roll it around in your mouth to enjoy every last bit of savory flavor and texture. How's that, jewels?
|
Mmmmmmmm yummmy! :p
Dill or half-sour for me, please ... |
Yeah, where is she?
Maybe someone should tell her that there are pickles here. And collages. And something else in French that means "joy in living" Maybe I'm talking out of my ass. Perhaps this is why pickles are funny... |

You know you need a powerful fork when you have a giant pickle...
http://www.moonmilk.com/images/cache...t__600x399.jpg I wonder if Giant Hamburger knows this giant pickle? I wonder if he knows the beauty holding the pickle? |
