Bad Jokes = Hazardous to your Health

clipper's remarks: "The chimney joke made it into 207 conversations. An astonishing 44 percent of the reactions were classified as "impolite," intended to deeply embarrass the joke teller."

There's a reason comedians call it "dying on stage."

Research by a Washington State University linguist found that people who tell bad jokes often endure an astonishing outpouring of hostility from the listeners.

"These were basically attacks intended to result in the social exclusion or humiliation of the speaker, punctuated on occasion with profanity, a nasty glare or even a solid punch to the arm,"

We're not talking about jokes that contain offensive material, or the type of slurs unleashed by former "Seinfeld" star Michael Richards. The joke that Bell used in her research was:

"What did the big chimney say to the little chimney?

"Nothing, chimneys can't talk."

The responses to this childish riddle included insults, glares, silence or even blows.

Talk about a tough crowd.

There are several reasons for the strong responses.

First, such canned humor often disrupts the natural flow of conversation.

jokes that fail to deliver humor are a violation of a social contract

Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii

A New Zealand judge has made a 9-year-old girl a ward of the court so that her name can be changed from Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii

Family Court Judge Rob Murfitt listed a series of unusual names that New Zealand parents had given their children, and said he was concerned that such strange monikers would create hurdles for them as they grew up.

"It makes a fool of the child and sets her up with a social disability and handicap," the New Zealand Press Association quoted the judge as saying.

Among the names Murfitt cited: twins named Benson and Hedges -- after a brand of cigarettes; Violence; and Number 16 Bus Shelter.

The Registrar General of Births, Deaths and Marriages said in a statement that it had rejected names including Fish and Chips, Yeah Detroit, Stallion, Twisty Poi -- a staple food in Polynesian cuisine -- and Sex Fruit.

StalinWorld Amusement Park

StalinWorld

an unlikely theme park provoking laughter—and outrage—in Lithuania.

The facility—part amusement park, part open air museum—is circled by barbed wire and guard towers, and dotted with some 65 bronze and granite statues of former Soviet leaders Vladimir Lenin and Josef Stalin

“It combines the charms of a Disneyland with the worst of the Soviet gulag prison camp,” Malinauskas told assembled journalists

Malinauskas, considered one of the wealthiest men in Lithuania, launched his Stalin World project after he won a nationwide competition three years ago for rights to use Soviet-era statues that had been taken down from city squares following Lithuanian independence, and then mothballed.

Malinauskas argued that the fun-loving atmosphere around the park demonstrated Lithuanians had a healthy view of history and were finally putting the tragic Soviet past behind them.

The Wilhelm Scream

Clip Source: en.wikipedia.org

The Wilhelm scream is a near famous stock sound effect first used in 1951 for the film Distant Drums

The Wilhelm's revival came from Star Wars series sound designer Ben Burtt, who tracked down the original recording (which he found as a studio reel labeled "Man being eaten by alligator"). Although Distant Drums was the first known use of the sound, Burtt named it after "Pvt. Wilhelm", a minor character who emitted the same scream in the 1953 film The Charge at Feather River.

Since then, it's been used in over 130 movies; Spielberg and Lucas use it an awful lot (and are responsible for the popularization of the kinda-cheesey scream).

Here's a compilation of many (but not nearly all) of its uses:

Singing, Pooping Tigers Teach Japan's Youth

[Video]

There are some things about Japan that just don't translate: capsule hotels, Pepsi Ice Cucumber and sadistic game shows, to name a few.

Now we can add the following video designed to help Japanese kids learn to use the toilet. It's not that I object to anthropomorphic jungle cats instructing big boys and girls to dump out, it's the oddly communal, musical way they do it.

Honestly, if I had just managed not to wet myself for the first time, the last thing I'd want is a big show-stopping, Patti LuPone number with my parents flanking either side of me, capped by a confetti flourish.

is it really necessary to have both the cartoon baby tiger and a real Japanese boy (at the cartoon's end) grunting and straining in an effort to pinch a loaf?
