Funny Anecdotes

This is a broadening of the Unusual Facts thread (which I enjoyed very much).

Everybody has a couple good stories to tell, let's hear them!

When I was a Junior in High School (~16), I was chatting with friends in our first class of the day before the bell. It was a Current Literature class and my friends Rob, Sylvia, Myra, Lisa, and I were sitting at our desks talking to each across the aisle. Lisa was across from me, and as we talked she would rub her leg with a bemused expression on her face. Finally she said, "What...?", reached up her pant leg and pulled out: a pair of underwear! The look of total shock on her face, followed by a mortified shriek, was priceless. Naturally the rest of us were crying with laughter. We joked about it at the 5 year reunion.

Senior year was fun. Senior pranks were a small tradition at our school, though I bet most of them were myths passed on year to year. But we actually did a couple that I was proud of. I was on the swim team and one evening a couple of the guys took up a collection and bought 120 goldfish. We had taped one of the outside doors for the pool open before we left practice that night, and the next morning they released them into the pool about 7:30 am. The chlorine and lack of oxygen in the pool killed them quickly, so that by the time the morning swimming class arrived, most of them were floating. I saw the Principal a couple hours later (my friend's Dad) and he had a huge grin on his face as he remarked on this astounding occurance, wondering if I had heard about it. I did my best to look astonished.

Well the best prank I pulled recently was on a good friend of mine. He is a contractor who does landscaping. One Sunday morning I called him up for lunch and he was actually at a site. They were behind schedule and had a lot of work to do. Anyways he asked if I could swing by the site and bring him lunch and if I could stop off somewhere before hand and pick up some industrial strength weed killer. I said sure, then I went to straight to the Home Depot down the street and bought 2 one gallon containers of weed killer. I then went back home and emptied the the containers out and rinsed them out with clean water and filled them up with Miracle Grow.....

A few days later the weeds were 10 ft tall.

The best prank ever pulled on me was by my wife. This was when we first started dating and getting serious. It happend the first time we slept together. After I undressed her for the first time I wanted to go down and take a look at the "goods"....well what I saw make me go limp and want to crap my pants! She inserted some fake halloween vampire teeth in her vagina! I looked up at her and she had this real evil smile on. Till this day I still haven't been able to get her back good enough for that one.

HtB: That's it - I'm calling PETA!

RL: You're MARRIED? To a WOMAN?

I have no amusing anecdotes. At least none that I'd like to share with the class, for fear of a sudden knock on the door from a nice civil servant with a warrant for my arrest.

Are these supposed to be funny ha-ha, or funny queer?

I would say either - whichever you would like to share. However, you may want to verify the statute of limitations on any crimes committed before posting.
