It seemed like a good thing to say at the time

This is a hall of fame thread for sure. Everyone's making great contributions here, but a few are worth mentioning specifically (don't feel bad). Scoots, congratz on delivering The. Worst. Pickup. Line. Ever. I absolutely love it.

The Jimi Hendrix bit reminds me of a conversation an NT friend and I had about Johnny Mathis (yeah, I know, but this is funny).

Friend: "I know he has some kind of ethnicity to him, but...."
Me [taken aback slightly]: "Yeah, he's black."
Friend: "No way! He's black?!"

I haven't let him live it down yet.

that is great. Ill try and think up some of my own and let ya know.

"I have never drown myself before" or "I have never died before"

From way, way back in time. Logic filters hadn't developed quite yet, evidently.

heres a couple ive heard from some baseball guy:
"Nobody eats there, it too crowded."
"If you come to a fork in the road, then take it."

Yogi was good, but so was Casey Stengel. Here are a few [url=http://www.espn.go.com/classic/s/Stengelese.htm[url]Stengelisms[/url] from the other side of the bench.

-Your Sporting Zed

A few days ago my boss flew off her lid at a manager at another site on the other side of the country.

I told her she should send him a shoebox with a dead cat in it.

I really have no idea where that came from, but THAT comment got me some looks.

This is the only ridiculous statement I've made that I can recall at the moment, but I'm sure I've said thousands.

'Personal hygiene is just not important to me!' --when I was about 13, yelling at my parents (they'll never let me live it down).

When it comes to stupid quotes, though, George W. Bush wins.

Hmmm...this is a good topic...I'm sure there are more incidents than I can currently recall...

The first time I had to deal witha sinus problem, it felt like my nose was growing...honestly, so I said it... "It feels like my nose is growing" and for a week people kept looking at me and telling me I looked different...followed up by, "Is your nose bigger?" I was probably 15 at the time.

When my mom asked me if I wanted to go see the high school band perform (I was a part of the band program when I was in high school) I said, "I'v grown beyond that now." She thought I implied that she should get over it, too.
