  • History Report

    So I am at the library browsing the DVD's and there is a 10 year old kids with his mom browsing also, the kid squeaks excitedly and grabs a DVD off the rack and holds it up to his mom and says "Can we rent this pleeeeeease! It'll help with my history report!" the clueless mom takes the DVD from him and looks it over, the DVD was "History of the World, Part 1", mom having no idea it's a Mel Brooks movie says "Ok, I guess it looks ok" I did Facepalms sister, the Nosepinch "Ma'am?" I say "That movie is not appropiet for children." the lady looks at me with a mixture of confusion and annoyance (As if I was telling her that so I could get the DVD) "What are you talking about? It's a educational DVD" she says "No, it's not, that is a Mel Brooks movie" I replied, with the look on her face I may as well have been speaking Swahili. "I'll just go ask someone who works here" she said rather smugly. I watch as she goes to the check out desk and asks the guy a couple of questions about the movie and after here basically what I told her she storms back to the DVD shelves and reshleves it, in the wrong place too, I might add. She throws me an evil look and turns and storms off..

    I'm like, really? Gonna give me the stink eye for trying to help you?

    If you hadn't said anything I would have loved to have read the resulting report.
    Fiancee: We're going to need to do laundry. I'm out of clean pants.
    Me: Sounds like a job for Gravekeeper!
    Fiancee: What?!
    Me: Nevermind.

      After she threw me the "You go to Hell, You go to Hell and you die" look I regretted telling her.

        I watched that several times as a child and loved it. Just didn't understand the naughty parts.

          I was never sensored as a child (save for porn) it always amused me that the older I got the more and more I understood and got alot of the jokes and gags in movies.

            That would've been an awesome end result if it had gotten home, put on to play for 'family time: the educational edition' and the frantic scramble for the remote/dvd player to turn it off once realizing what's going on.

            Personally I grew up on Benny Hill and Monty Python and all it did to me was give me a very dry and odd sense of humor, more power to the old comedies!
            Okay everyone, lets all point and laugh at him right about....

                  That is one history report I would have loved to have read.

                    As an aside, Blazing Saddles is ideal for a report on the old West.

                          This is a very educational movie. It showed employment in Roman Times: "Oh, a bullshit artist. Did you try to bullshit last week?"

                          The Spanish Inquisition: "The inquisition, let's begin, the inquisiton, look out sin. We have our mission to convert the Jews."

                          Plumbing in Rome: "Yes, citizens, plumbing! It's the latest invention to hit Rome! It moves water from one place to another! It's astounding, it's amazing! Get on the bandwagon! Pipe the shit right out of your house!"

                          Moses: "The Lord Jehovah has given unto you these 15....ten, these ten commandments."

                          Why yes, I have seen this movie. Once or twice. I first watched it when I was about 7 or 8, and every time I watch it I catch more of the jokes that went way over my head.
