Anytime. I'm happy to break all the bones in the world if it helps people learn all the various ways you can break a bone.

I once called a rabbit a duck, so you were just trying to correct my mistake, I suppose.

I bet it's a subconscious reaction to that optical illusion. Have either of you seen it recently? Might have been that.

All is good as long as I keep quiet after a funny moment, but as soon as I start to speak, I just crack up again and really have difficulty to get myself together. And it's really embarrassing:
Once my quite respected art professor called me at home, regarding some important issues we had discussed earlier. Well, I had had a laugh with my sister right before he called, and as I answered, I literally didn't even manage to say "Hello" before I just totally, hysterically cracked up right there on the phone. And I couldn't stop. After some 45 seconds or so I just had to hang up, as I weren't able to utter any (coherent) words.
So I guess that is the stupidest (and most embarrassing) thing I've ever done

Oh boy. At least I didn't fall off the table I was standing on!

lol That reminds of something from school. I can't remember why exactly we were doing it, but we were saying opposites. I thought of one and raised my hand. When the teacher called on me, I smiled and confidently said . . .
"Jason is a girl and Liana is a boy."
Everyone started laughing. lol I didn't even realise what was so funny and why they were looking shocked at me until someone repeated what I had said. XD The two friends mentioned were not as amused as everyone else. ha!

Helen was telling this story once before and I did not understand that by bush she meant a bush. I thought it was one of those strange nicknames British people have for things, like a police officer or a maintenance man or something. Everyone laughed.
