This is a question Real-life slapstick

Fact: When someone walks into a lamp-post it makes a very satisfying and hugely hilarious "Ding!" noise. However, it is not quite so funny when the post is in the middle of town and you are the victim. Tell us about hilarious prat-falls.

Thanks to Bob Todd for the suggestion

Stevie Wonder
My mate sent me a jpeg on email at work. It was of a smiling Stevie Wonder wearing a t-shirt, emblazoned with the words "I am a cunt". I thought it was quite funny - but being fairly new at work I din't want to get into any sort of bother by forwarding it on. So I printed it out instead and showed my workmates down the pub that night. They, like me, also found much mirth in the said picture of old Stevie.

Fast forward a couple of weeks. I was walking down the street with my wife and rummaging around in my pockets for god knows what. I come across this piece of paper, open it up and realise it's only the picture of Stevie Wonder that I must have stuffed into my jeans and completely forgotten about. I took another look and started to giggle. Yup - still as funny as before.

My wife leans over and asks me what I'm laughing at.

"You won't like it," I tell her, guffawing away. Quick as a flash she grabs it off me and looks at the picture of our hero, Mr Wonder. She doesn't smile - not once. She just tuts, shakes her head and hands it back to me.

"I'm just really disappointed you find things like that funny, you know. You shouldn't laugh at the blind," she tells me very seriously.

This makes me start laughing even more. So much in fact, that I sort of double-over laughing as I'm walking along, and continue to "ha ha" my way down the street. It's only after about 5 yards of more hee-heeing that I straighten up and ***SMASH** walk fully into a lamppost, knocking myself over and out for a few seconds.

As I come to, the picture of Stevie is flapping about in the wind like a mysterious omen, my wife is now doubled-over laughing herself, and some strangers are pointing at me from the other side of the street with tears running down their faces.

Stevie had it wrong. Clearly, I was the cunt that day. And I haven't laughed at him since*

I like this
and clicked accordingly. I laughed out loud picturing Stevie Wonder before a large group wearing that t-shirt proclaiming to all "I am a cunt"

Laughing at the expense of the handicapped can brighten up any day.
