Fergie and Jesus

Jul 29 2008

Yesterday I went with a group of guys to what one might call a “guy comedy” type movie.  Please forgive me for stereotyping this way, but really it was the exact opposite of a “chick flick” so this is the best way to express what I was seeing.  I barrelled over in laughter more than a few times during the film, and though I would not recommend it (not because it wasn’t funny), I must say it did stimulate  “an audible expression or appearance of merriment” within me.

MY FAVE LINE IN THE MOVIE:  One of the characters was singing (not very good) to the other character, and afterwards, the one who was listening says with tears in his eyes,”Your voice is the combination of Fergie and Jesus.”  The way he said it made me laugh so hard I thought something was going to pop inside of me.  I now have this as a flair on my facebook account.  Thanks Neil.

So the whole point of this post is this:  Afterwards the four guys (including me) who saw the film stepped out of the theater laughing mildly and kind of calm.  Then one of us reminds us of one of the parts of the movie, then another of us, makes a quote from the movie, and we were off!  On our way back to the car, we started laughing.  I mean rolling.  Uncontrollable laughter.  We all jumped in the car, and there was more laughter.  I couldn’t even move the car because I was afraid of getting in an accident due to the tears rolling down my face.  And when we were about to stop, we would start laughing again. 

For five full minutes, four adult men in a car parked at the local movie theater laughed loud without being able to stop. It was one of the most hilarious things that have happened to me in a long time, and I’d like to thank Brandon, Brandon, and Neil for making it all possible.

I’ve never laughed so hard in all of my life.

  1. I love that kind of gut-splitting, face-hurting, I-am-sore-afterwards kind of laughing – the kind where all it takes is one line or even a look to get it all started again – That is AWESOME!! If we all had that kind of laughter in each of our days – we’d probably extend our life span by 100 years :)

  2. Good call Tina. It was hilarious! One of the greatest things ever would be to see this with Tom. I think I’ll watch it again with him.

  3. So why wouldn’t you recommend it if it was so funny? I might have to go see the Step Brothers, now, myself just based on your story.

  4. marty – you TOTALLY have to take Tom – he will love watching that with u… hearing him laugh hysterically would be worth the price of admission!

  5. ha! great story! and you’re welcome for the flair, I though you’d like that! I’m still kind of laughing now??? is that a bad thing, or maybe just a little disturbing??? lol…
