I'm pretty sure it's been shown on the forum before, but it's still worth a watch/listen:

This is not a parody, a comedy, or anything that would, at first glance, fit my stated purpose for this thread... but I did find it amusing and somewhat entertaining. In this video, the husband, a professional saxophone player, gives saxophone lessons to his wife, a professional recorder player.

And here, she gives her husband a recorder lesson. He's pretty good at it, I say...

Are videos liable towards the pun jar as well?

In the College Roomies From Hell forums (CRFH!!! - the three exclamation points stand for quality!), we had a sub-forum for games of all sorts. One thread was dedicated to putting sentences through Google Translate through several languages and back to English. Some of those resulting sentences were quite hilarious.

This is similar, but used on song lyrics:


















I better stop, before I get carried away...
English -> Spanish: Mejor me detengo, antes de dejarme llevar ...
Spanish -> Dutch: Ik kan beter stoppen, voordat ik mezelf laat gaan ...
Dutch -> French: Je ferais mieux de m'arrêter avant de me laisser aller ...
French -> Lithuanian: Geriau sustok, kol nepaleisiu ...
Lithuanian -> English: You better stop before I run ...

Nothing says "humour" * like a chicken getting slapped into submission cooked-iness... :lol:





* I'm allowed that extra 'u', seeing as I'm Canadian... :P

As amusing as the previous video was, these guys call shenanigans on the final result for the chicken (but do not contest the steak...)

Don't jump to conclusions... take time to watch the whole video! :mrgreen:
Yeah, I know, there was no humour involved in this one... But it was neat anyway...





From the comments below the video:
"Don't try this at home." Good advice. My mum would kill me if she caught me driving a minivan and trailer through the kitchen after she's just washed the floor!

There are a number of barbershop quartet videos that are quite amusing, on YouTube. This, is one of them.
