A woman walks up to an old man sitting in a chair on his porch. "I couldn't help but notice how happy you look," she said. "What's your secret for a long, happy life?" "I'm a hubber. I smoke three packs a day while I hub, drink a case of beer while I hub, I eat fatty foods while I hub, and never, ever exercise because I hub," he replied. "Wow, that's amazing," she said, "How old are you?" "Twenty-six."

Cris- Thanks for the mention. Btw as far as discussion is concerned politics is also as highly debated as religions and the most debates occur when these two are intermixed like the Gaza crisis. Another great thoughtful hub. Btw you won't ever get depressed since you get so many comments in every hub of yours..LOL

Pam Roberson  says:

LOL Cris! You know me too well already. :D

You're too funny for words today. First you're glad to make me roll all over the floor (laughing), then you're happy to make someone else choke on coffee (in a good way)! ROFL! :D I'm just teasing. ;)

I wouldn't change a thing you've done Cris. Although if Shirley wants to do a switcheroo, I'm flexible...in a good way...I mean, um, not the bendy way, but...oh, you know what I mean! lol! :D

Before, I read any of the comments, I have to say, I was eating a breakfast sandwich and almost choked on it while reading. And you know when some of it sometimes gets coughed it up, it goes up the nasal shaft, well that my friend is what you did to me. I had to go get a glass of water and take a moment before I came back. But they didn't stop and I had to get my asthma inhaler out because my lungs couldn't keep up with the laughter. Ya killin' me man! Now I'm going to go back and read some of these comments.

Really gave me a lift and some laughs reading this and some of the comments. My farm boy husband says, "Shut the hub off," now when he means it's time to go to bed and shut the computer off. He's convinced it's a mental "hub-affliction."

This is a pretty good one, Cris.  A day job?  I would have laughed... but the yawning stifled it! ;-)

Hey, try this!  I just made some coffee and put a dark chocolate truffle Kiss in the cup before pouring in the coffee, then a teaspoon (heaping) of brown sugar and some Tiramisu flavored creamer  ...I think my taste buds had an orgasm!

Stir WELL to make sure the Kiss melts.

Jerillee

Glad to hear you had a good one. I wish you'd introduce the hubby to hubbing so next time he could have a laugh too! No more shutting the hub off! LOL :D

Drink more coffee...you shouldn't yawn while hubbing or everybody who reads it might think you're in rehab! :D 

LOL that's a good one....I shoudl try it...tongue orgasm, huh? I have muscovado sugar, would it be okay using it instead of brown sugar? Thanks for sharing! :D

PS have you tried looking for the coffee I told you about? and what about the music genre - any breakthrough as to  whait might be called? Keep me posted :D

Constant Walker profile image

Constant Walker  says:
11 months ago

Muscovado sugar would be more than OK. I've been meaning to try that. It's like dark brown sugar (which is the only sweetener I use) but purer, darker and sweeter! Sounds incredible!

I'm not doing any gourmet shopping at the moment. And yeah, had a breakthrough: I'm going to stay with "Gothic Classical." It describes the genre better than enything else I've come across.

Yes, it has an altogether different texture. Yep definitely sweeter, so be careful with how much you use. Half a teaspoon is fine by me, anything sweeter I shun! ;D

Okay, let's settle for the Gothic Classical for the meantime, but I will continue the hunt - i've obssessive compulsive behaviour in things like that! LOL :D

You two had us all fooled until the most boring hub contest. That was coordinated just a little too smoothly, through supposedly different time zones -- and on New Years Eve, to boot!

Cindy,

Honestly I don;t have a sliver of an idea what's that supposed to mean but it got me curious nonetheless after reading your reply to the comment she (it was a she, right?) made about this "mikey" person. And after reading rockinjoe's comment about a rumour, well, I just supposed it somehow has a connection. Sorry if this troubled you, but there;s nothing like a good "gossip" - or even a hint at one - to stir HubPages up! :D

I have been one to leave "nice hub" as a comment from time to time, but I do read the hub. Sometimes i just don't know what else to say. Writer'r block- that's a great quality in a hubber, right? LOL

This hub was awesome and the funniest thing about the whole thing was that I could not figure out which was funnier- the hub or some of the replies you gave to your comments. I laughed all the way through!

LOL, Misty. You have already posted more than sufficient proof of your feminine charms. But you gotta admit you and Rockinjoe seem to think at the same speed in the same warped direction:-). How do we know that RJ isn't just another user name you have cleverly created:-)?

This could be a fun exercise. Pair up the male hubber with his female counterpart. Example: CW and CW -- Constant Walker and Countrywomen

Oh my God, Cris, this is great.  Mostly because it's all TRUE!  I'm not sure I can pick a favourite, but I did shudder a bit when I saw the word, 'Rehab'.  There were so many funny ones.

When I read what you had me saying, my first thought was, "Did I tell Cris about that??"  I don't remember telling you that I spilled beer into my laptop keyboard.  It all happened so fast that I didn't get a chance to suck it up off the keys before it ran down inside.  Now, funny things happen sometimes when I type.

Also, I was out half a beer!

Alas, the divine Ms Shirley has arrived! I was beginning to think Pam's crotchety laptop's bug hopped on to yours!

No, you've never told me about that incident but I can tell as much from the exchanges that we've had that it's not something that would neva eva happen to you! Talk about personality reading! And you tried to suck it up, huh? I could just imagine - you running after the spilt beer! LOL

Chris Hilarious hub and funny comments. thanks for the mention. About multiple identities I have my suspicions too. I recently asked Joe if he was the alter ego to Shades but he denied it vehemently. So another link to Joe.  Another possibility is BT and Mighty Hunter and so on. See I can start a rumour too!

Yes the comments are hilarious, I might do a hub featuring these comments as I'm sure they'd make up for a pretty funny hub! You asked rockinjoe what?!

I considered asking toady for help, but he's a busy man. Besides he wouldn't have choked on his sandwich had he known about this - and that would have taken half the fun for me!

Great comments all round, and someone should do a hub of the funniest comments ever made on Hub pages, although there would be thousands to choose from. :)

Cris A profile image

Cris A  says:
11 months ago

I concur, and to think you'd have to look at thousands of hubs as well! But it's a great idea nonetheless... I'll see what I can do :D

mistyhorizon2003 profile image

mistyhorizon2003  says:
11 months ago

That would be great. Perhaps people could email you some of their favourite comments received and the context in which they were written.

Cris A profile image

Cris A  says:
11 months ago

I have an idea already working! Put the title and afterwhich the funny comment/s. But I hit a snag rightaway, what if it was a running exchange of comments? And this does happen quite often! What do you think?

mistyhorizon2003 profile image

mistyhorizon2003  says:
11 months ago

True, but if the context is included in brief, then all the previous comments won't be necessary. e.g. Title, "so'n'so said ............., to which the response was ..........".

People can always copy and paste a couple of posts to make their point.

Even in a running exchange certain comments will stand out as being the funniest.

mistyhorizon2003 profile image

mistyhorizon2003  says:

A hub that had loads of truly funny comments was written by "Brainstormer". You truly should read both the hub and the comments:

Cris A profile image

Cris A  says:
11 months ago

Okay that sounds good enough! But i'm having second thoughts about having hubbers email me of their "nominations" i don't think I can handle the pressure of being expected to include everything that was sent. We do have differences on what we think is funny or not (but this does not apply to us, apparently! *wink*).

Nonetheless I will start scouring the hubs and the comments - so see ya in 10 years? LOL

mistyhorizon2003 profile image

mistyhorizon2003  says:

Another hub written by Brainstormer, and also full of hilarious comments was:

Thanks for the mention Cris, "We are amused"

I admit to using the "Nice hub!" comment without great shame. I've read the hub,admired it, but it's not on a subject that I'm greatly concerned with. It's fair to acknowledge it but superfluous to write more.

And yeah, I got a kick out of this hub. Reading the comments my past life flashed before my eyes, or the last five months of it anyway. Sorry for the late reply. I only got the HubPage notification an hour ago.

Cheers, TOF

About the "nice hub" - it's generally the unspoken rule, but of course there is alway an exception. no offense meant :D

Thanks for dropping by and say hi to the rest of gang (wink)

The Old Firm profile image

The Old Firm  says:
11 months ago

No offence assumed Chris, either from you or the person who brought it up. It just seemed a nice neutral hub to clear up the point, and I doubt I was the target either.

I have noticed on some other hubs one or two have made comments on this phrase with a distinct air of superiority, which I don't believe that they had a right to assume, (definitely not the case here- that sounds ambiguous, I mean that it didn't occur here) although like all overused comments it can be trite, lazy and annoying.

BTW, some other forums or what have you complain bitterly about much used abbreviations like "BTW & LOL"

LOL,  TOF

Cris A profile image

Cris A  says:
11 months ago

No problem, I totally get what you mean but I still thank you for clearing the air just the same.

As for the use of abbreviations - i guess it has something to do with... no, i'd rather not say it! but you know what I meanm right? the times they are a'changin!

Wow! You managed to get a couple of comments, Cris. :)

I didn't want anything, just passing through, seeing what's going on. Looks like you have everything under control and people have the alternate ego of a couple of hubbers really wrong, which is good for maintaining anonymity but gets some good, juicy gossip going.

I'll throw a couple of names into the mix. BT is actually Spryte and Joe is obviously Mistyhorizons. :) :) :)

Juicy (erroneous) gossip is good for the soul.

Cris A profile image

Cris A  says:
11 months ago

Shirley,

Why yes, I think I did manage quite a lot of comments - and funny ones too! And as for the gossip, they add more to the fun as there's nothing spicier than a healthy dose of intrigue. I can imagine the small talks behind the Forums! (i'll delete this in 5 minutes and delete your replpy in 5 - no evidence! LOL)

Is BT rmr? I read it somewhere but I'm not so sure anymore! LOL

Thanks for dropping by to check :D

mistyhorizon2003 profile image

mistyhorizon2003  says:
11 months ago

LOL Cris, if I am Joe it really is worrying, as you will see from comments I have left on other Hubs (including Brainstormers), how I donated my first Vibrator to the OXFAM shop in a sack of other stuff. Plus some of my hubs are about things like my desire to get pregnant. I sure hope I am not a bloke on this basis alone :)

Cris A profile image

Cris A  says:

Very funny Cris and very true. I have to say that sometimes I just great hub too even after I have read them because I am not sure what else to say. BTW I think Spryte and Shades might be the same person. They both seem to be missing in action or maybe they are having an affair who knows, but thats my guess.

mistyhorizon2003 profile image

mistyhorizon2003  says:

LOL, Oh well, if people want to think I am Joe then it is a compliment, although not sure Joe will be too thrilled about people thinking he uses vibrators etc. :)

Hi Gwendy, I miss Spryte and Shades too, wish they would hurry up and return to the clan :)

Cris A profile image

Cris A  says:
11 months ago

Hey Gwendy,

I'm glad you finally made it here! I think The Old Firm made the same "argument" regarding the "nice/great hub" comment too. But people who have been in HP long enough to have a few observations know exactly what I mean - as I'm sure you do. And hubbers are an intelligent lot that they know who skim reads and who does not - so I won't worry about that if i were you! (wink)

An affair?! Now that's the kind of gossip I likes! LOL Better head on to Shirley and pass on this juicy bit! LOL

Thanks for dropping by :D
