You might be right.

Lemme guess, you didn't say "You may be right" in order to avoid triggering Uruk.

It is a shame that “Too Many Dicks (On the Dance Floor)” by Flight of the Conchords is not eligible.

Ben Folds' Wikipedia page says he's been married 5 times. Huh. That's weird.

*puts on chorus of Song for the Dumped*

Give me my money back
Give me my money back
Give me my money back
You *****

Oh, that makes sense now.

He has a lot of stuff that sounds like angry break-ups, but then again he also has "The Luckiest."

The first line might be an indicator, though it needs to be updated to "first, second, third or fourth" time.

I don't get many things right the first time
In fact, I am told that a lot
Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls
Brought me here

And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face?
Now I see it everyday

And I know
That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest

He's definitely a complex dude.

 

[Chaos34]

He's definitely a complex dude.

The first divorce was about irreconcilable religious differences. He thought he was god, and she didn't.

He was on his third marriage when that song came out. At 7 years, it was the longest of his marriages, so I guess there's that.

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

it needs to be in a form where we can all listen to it

You sure you want to leave it this wide open?

I'm counting on people not to be ********.

You are the eternal optimist.

 

[Raging weasel]

At first I was going to just do my favorite 31 covers.
Then I thought about doing favorite Beatles covers.
Going with covers by hard rock/metal bands

You could still do #2, combined with #3.

 

[rockaction]

Doesn't "let's get married" cause trepidation at some point upon reflection when you know the person is on their third or fourth? Like you might become the subject of an angry anecdote really quickly?

Asking for a friend.

 

[Yankee23Fan]

WHOA.

I see your powers have grown.

You’ll make it work this time.

Oh yes you will.

I had typed personal info. here, but thought better of it. Suffice to say, I'm SMDH over a family member.

Probably not by me.

In. Especially for dad jokes.

I accidentally handed my wife a glue stick instead of lipstick! She’s still not talking to me!

Not in but passing along a related dad joke.

I think my wife is putting glue on my antique weapons collection. She denies it but I'm sticking to my guns.

If you see a group of cows laying down is it pasture bedtime?

I didn't think orthopedic shoes would help, but I stand corrected.

If you're ever attacked by a circus troupe, go for the juggler.

Some folks from the British Isles countdown who haven't checked in yet. I'll check the other two countdowns for any others shortly.

I doubt it, but with actual winter starting this weekend I'll reassess as I spend more time indoors. I've had very little time available for music since starting a new job. The last time I looked ahead and thought time would start to free up that empty space was quickly filled, so now I'm wondering if that's the norm. Not a bad thing, but I'll need to re-think how to keep music in my life.

Speaking of the circus, I drove past one the other day and it was on fire! It was in tents!

I appreciate the invite but 1. I'm totally swamped at work and have no time and 2. I would suck at this exercise and would just google a list. I'll follow along though.

Good luck, we're all counting on you.

Everyone was excited at the Autopsy Club.

It was open Mike night.

 

[Galileo]

My wife asked me to stop singing “I’m a Believer” by the Monkees because she found it annoying. At first I thought she was kidding, but then I saw her face…

 

[Galileo]

If you suck at playing the trumpet, that's probably why.

I was addicted to the Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around.

I used to play the trombone, but lately I’ve been letting it slide

I wanted to be an organ donor, but I only own a piano

 

[Galileo]

My neighbor was banging on my door and yelling at 3 am last night. Luckily, I was still up playing music. He shouted “can we get a little respect, please!” I shouted back, “OK, but I am not really a big Aretha Franklin fan”

 

[Galileo]

I started a rock cover band called Paper

 

[Galileo]

Did you hear Sting was kidnaped? The Police don't have a lead.

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

Krista, I blame you.

 

[higgins]

@Galileo I’m totally hearing those jokes in Steven Wright’s voice.

Krista, I blame you.

You're welcome!

I was trying to think of some jokes to post here.
Given the stiff competition so far, it had better be a good one
Finally worked on some puns. I had about 80.
Got it down to my best 10.
Which one of those qualified to post here?
Unfortunately no pun in 10 did

 

[Andy Dufresne]

If anyone wants some, I have leftover candy canes from Christmas. They're in mint condition.

René Descartes walked into a bar and was asked if he wanted a drink.

He said, "I think not"... and vanished.

Can we limit these to 1 per day per person please?

Okay, Hans

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

Just blame it on Krista. I did.

Draft really crappy Beatles covers.
