A guy i work with loves the play on words wind-ups. such as this;

(To one of the larger guys in work) "Hey Dave your good at english aren't you?

Dave: yeah i'm not bad

work mate: ok then can you use the word facinate in a sentence?

Dave: um.... I was facinated by te football on telly last night

work mate: no i said fascinate not facinated

fave: Ok then lets see you use it!!

work mate: ok Dave has bought a new jacket and it has nine buttons but he's so big he can only fascinate!


I thought it was brilliant! anyone else know any ones like this i wanna try catch my mate out with one of them

This has wound you up, hasn't it dave??

Don't worry about it mate, just get down the gym and show him who's boss in a couple of months.

Your best bet would be to get a few old cassettes of those dreadfully corny old comics like Ken Dodd, or Arthur Askey, a large part of their acts were made up of such stuff.

...not quite the same but a mate at work couldn't remember what horrible thing he'd seen recently, i told him it was mirror...he wasn't amused...

The gay guy who told me I was a bit anal got told to take a look at himself once...

The really funny bit was that I didn't know he was gay until then.
