I heard a stand up comedian (possibly Lewis Black) talking about hearing things that not only make no sense whatsoever, but also make your brain come to a screeching halt. His example was a conversation he overheard when one lady said to another "If it wasn't for my horse, I wouldn't have finished my last year of college."
Of course his delivery was great and got a nice big laugh.
Today I was watching Judge Judy (maybe that alone belongs in the confessions thread) and a lady was suing the person who had been house sitting for her. The house sitter brought a cat in, and the cat did a lot of damage; and damage to things that were hard to replace. There was a vase, antique curtains, and also a toilet seat. And this is what she said that brought my brain to a screeching halt:
"I am an underwater photographer, so I have a specialty toilet seat."
Ok, first of all does that make sense to anybody else? And does anybody have any brain screeching examples of their own to share?
