Surely you've all seen this series of commercials for NASCAR where "Normal People" are such Race-Fans that they do Irrational things related to their love for Racing.
I Have to share my own personal moment....
My wife would KILL me if she knew...

We got "Re-Married" Yesterday.
Since she's now Greek Orthodox, and while the Church recognized our "Legal" Marriage, they didn't recognize our "Spiritual" Marriage, so we did a Renewal of Vows/Blessing of the Marriage Ceremony.
As part of the Service, my wife and I had our right hands joined, and at a point, the Priest led me, leading my wife, leading my wife's Godmother around an Altar for THREE Clock-wise Go-Rounds while singing hymns in Greek and English.
(Three, symbolizing the Trinity.)
As we completed the Second Go-Round, and commenced on the Third, (I had been counting them to myself), I had THIS Thought to myself...
"White Flag Lap...THIS Time By!!!"

If I told her, she'd be Furious, but it wasn't a Conscious thought, it just popped into my head....

The hard part was not laughing out Loud!
I cracked a grin to myself, but I doubt anyone noticed...

 

[Ozmotear]

I want to laught too. Anyone have a clip of these commercials?

 

[Hooked Again]

I would say you've got it pretty bad. At least you didn't try to put someone into the wall ala Tom Cruse!

 

[MichaelXi]

And the Priest Spins Into the Baptismal!!!
They're Stacking up behind him!!
Looks like 4 Involved in the Carnage!!!

 

[Auto-X-ZTS]

ROFL!

 

[OmniFocus]

BWAHAHAHA!!!

Your mind is in the right place.

Any woman that can stand me is going to have to live with stuff like that... but I'd probably say it all out loud.

 

[Smurf]

yeah, mine laughs when i make turbo sounds or "screech" my shoes when slowing down....or any kind of car noise. I even do the tire warming thing (this: _ -_-_- ) when behind slow traffic. She finds it funny. I do it whenever i'm pushing a shopping cart, or playing with a toy, even when driving the gladiator.

I've got it bad.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">i do that. i make blow off sounds in the company vehicles, and screeching sounds when in other peoples cars. i also get my lines in gear while walking / running / etc.

Shopping at Wally world I had my 4 year old in one cart and my wife had our 3 year old in the other. She stopped to look at something and I went around to the right and said "Matchett passes on the outside...clear low". My wife gave me the "grow up" look and this lady with a Kellogs t shirt on just started laughing...

Michael take that idea and make the commercial.It'd be the best one yet.

But wait,you watch the races and your wife would see the commercials put 2&2 together and your dead.

Seriously funny.
