The last thing that made you laugh

Well, here's something hopefully better:

When someone steals your spot on the sofa.

When you have homework over the holidays.

Here you go: Woman shot in butt after sliding into MRI machine with loaded firearm

On the one hand I do feel bad, but on the other I'm thinking "What were you thinking? Why did you think it necessary to bring a gun to an MRI scan? Also, staff usually ask you if you have anything metal on you so why didn't you say anything?!"

I am digressing but is your screen name from Microsoft Flight Simulator? I love the game.

Nope, but I have played a bit of Microsoft Flight Simulator in the past.
A neat game, but ultimately not my cup of tea.

I was watching re-caps on Jimmy Carter, and I'm still chuckling days later. He took David Letterman's joke and turned it into a perfect straight line.

5:25 Ever the gentleman, he leaves it open for David to decide that Jimmy just didn't get jokes.

I told my husband about the news story you posted. He said that one day at work, an off-duty, undercover cop took a concealed gun in an MRI machine, after being specially asked if he had any metal on or inside him, and the cop lied and denied he had anything like that. Per hubby, the techs can usually spot on the monitor the magnetic pull on something metal like that and quickly stop the machine. Nothing happened in his case due to the vigilance of the technicians who stopped the machine.

You just have to wonder about why some people are so ignorant!

Your screen name is exactly the same as on an airplane in the game except for Starseed. When I saw it I thought of you.

Good grief! My husband is a radiologist and has recounted stories about things like gurneys and oxygen tanks left in MRI rooms but never a gun! And a loaded gun, at that! I guess some patients are too dimwitted to understand how an MRI machine works.

Or too dim-witted to understand how a gun works.

Remember the Doonesbury cartoons with the Chinese woman translating for the American politician?

There are many things I understand and other people do not and the opposite is true. I do not think I am dimwitted when I do not understand or think that about them. There are a lot of things to know and be good at.

My comment was a bit of a joke.

There are many people carrying guns who do not know how to be safe with them. Considering the amount of damage a gun can do, a person should know how to be safe when carrying guns.

I got confused, I did not know you were making a joke. I agree with you about gun safety. I used to meet people who wanted to have them or had them and did not know anything about gun safety. It bothered me.

I’m not that good at jokes or the use of emojis, but I think that when you see a winking emoji like this: after a sentence that means it is a joke.

If I’m wrong, I hope someone will correct me, because that’s how I was signaling it was a joke.
