I love parodies, and this one is a goodie.
Safenow.org takes disaster preparation graphics by our lovely federal government and adds some pretty hilarious (and made up) captions.
Here’s a few of my faves,
If a door is closed, karate chop it open.
If you are trapped under falling debris, conserve oxygen by not farting.
If you spot terrorism, blow your anti-terrorism whistle. If you are Vin Diesel, yell really loud.
They’re ALL hilarious though, so you really must click through and view the rest.
Here’s the deal if you want to join in.
Write about something funny. It can be an anecdote, a joke, a picture, or a link to something funny… whatever. This is a NO PRESSURE scenario. If it makes you chuckle, it’s good enough. I don’t mean to create a stressful IS IT FUNNY ENOUGH type situation, if you know what I’m sayin’. Anyone can participate.
So you write the post. Then come and link it here so that we can all enjoy the funniness.
If you participate, here’s the code to get the fabulous donkey graphic shown above;
And I should think it goes without saying but JUST IN CASE… any links that don’t go to a Make Me Laugh post on your blog will be deleted, promptly.
And one more thing… several of us read these entries with a child sitting in our lap. Please use an exclamation point at the beginning of your link title if it’s not suitable for young eyes. Happy Monday!

Those are hilarious! The hubby is thinking of taking some of those and printing them out and placing them around *appropriate* places in his office.

You’ve got to love these! I like not driving the station wagon with a utility pole protruding out of it.
It’s good advice!

That was really hilarious… had to pass it on to my parents and husband. Speaking of, DH works for the Gov’t… so anything that makes fun is doubly great for me.

I am going to print these out and post them at the store. I doubt my employees will get it. But Hubs and my GM will which will be for some priceless laughs at our weekly “meetings” at the sushi bar!
