So at work today the crew is discussing movies. Grumpy Old Men gets mentioned as a favorite and everyone agrees, then I try to be clever by saying "I don't need to watch the movie because I'm living it!", which gets a laugh.

My twenty-year younger coworker, without a pause, says "Well, I'm living Groundhog Day so I think I have you beat."

Needless to say, jaws dropped and howls erupted, that was a good comeback.

Cracking up watching a really stupid comedy, Norm McDonald and Artie Lange in 'Dirty Work' (1998)

*love interest* You two are brothers?

*Norm* Yeah, it's a long story.
*Artie* My dad boned his mom.
*Norm* OK, it's a short story.

^,^^ To be fair, it was simple once I recovered from my brainfart and could think clearly...

But, yeah, I can be acerbic when frustrated. @PackRat PM'd me with the subject title "rest of the tiger", we had a good chuckle about it.

His response to my apology for not thinking it through is quote-worthy...

Could easily go in the Jokes/One-Liners thread, but as the village idiot, I feel that thread is beneath me (*smug face*) so I'm posting here. Don't know who first said it, but it's stayed in my head throughout most of my life.

The first organ a human fetus develops is the anus. We all begin life as tiny little assholes.

If a monkey hoarded more bananas than it could eat, while most of the other monkeys starved, scientists would study that monkey to figure out what the heck was wrong with it. When humans do it, we put them on the cover of Forbes.

^ According to this article by Forbes, a monkey can do better in the stock market than the professionals...

I bet they then studied the simulated monkeys who had more bananas, didn't they?
