“Eau de Humanity” – That is quite possibly the funniest thing I have ever seen on this site. Possibly. Can’t say for sure, you know, but pretty sure. I might be able to dig round and find something funnier, but I don’t have the time right now, so we’ll leave it as originally stated.
“Eau de humanity”
“Oh the Humanity!”…the reporter’s cry during the Hindenburg disaster.
It’s practically standing still now. They’ve dropped ropes out of the nose of the ship, and it has been taken ahold of down on the field by a number of men. It’s starting to rain again; the rain had, uh, slacked up a little bit. The back motors of the ship are just holding it, uh, just enough to keep it from—
It’s burst into flames! It’s burst into flames and it’s falling, it’s crashing. (unintelligible) Get out of the way, get out of the way! Get this, Charlie, get this, Charlie! (unintelligible) It’s crashing! It’s crashing, terrible! Oh, my! Get out of the way, please! It’s burning, bursting into flames and it’s falling on the mooring mast, and all the folks between. Oh, this is terrible. This is the worst of the worst catastrophes in the world! (unintelligible) Oh, four to five hundred feet into the sky. It’s a terrific crash, ladies and gentlemen, it’s smoke and it’s flames, now, and the frame is crashing to the ground, not quite to the mooring mast. > Oh, the humanity> , and all the passengers screaming around here! I told you, I can’t even talk to people (unintelligible) I can’t talk, ladies and gentlemen.
Yes, I got that bit. It was the “Light, Smoldering, etc.” stuff that didn’t mean anything to me. I guess it just didn’t strike me as being as funny as FC thought. Missy’s post, on the other hand, was great.
really, someone thought it was the funniest thing ever? Then again i can be in a room when the funniest video show is on and not laugh once-well maybe once. The funniest thing I’ve heard here , and possibly period, is the one Dubhlinn told last week about Bono at the concert in Glasgow.
