Fun With Venn Diagrams

song chart memes

song chart memes

ADDENDUM: I'm getting comments that no one gets the humor in this. Let's try pie chart form instead of Venn diagram. Can you see the humor in this:

I saw this post this morning...then I had two cups of cofee.

I still don't get it...lol.

I'm a little dense sometimes though so if anyone wants to explain it I'm totally curious!

Suzanne Young said...

Purple, I just cracked up at your comment! haha.

And no, I don't get it either, but then again, I don't get most things. I just nod and laugh like I DO get it.

:-)

PurpleClover said...

Well no one was commenting which is unusual for Christy...so I figured I must not have been alone. lol.

That and I wanted to wait for someone to comment that would have helped me see the light so I could smile and laugh and say something that sounded like I had it all along too. ;)

Christy Raedeke said...

Really? I laughed my a** off at these. Maybe I spent too much time in corporate America looking at bad powerpoint slides?

C'mon people, does anyone find these remotely funny? Anyone?

StaffPicks said...

It.

Tyler said...

Haha, I had that Meatloaf one as a bumper sticker on facebook a while back. I love that.

Don't worry, Christy, you got a laugh out of me! But the addendum was definitely my favorite. I guess I'm just more of a pie guy.

PurpleClover said...

sigh...I admit I googled it all. Thank gawd for google. I get it now. No seriously, I do. lol.

The quote

The politics

I didn't have to google Meat Loaf...I got that. lol.

Suzanne Young said...

Um... I still don't get it. Oh, wait! MEATLOAF! haha. I got it just now. ahhahahahahhahahaha

Anne Spollen said...

Ok, I couldn't stop laughing -- maybe I'm a victim of one too many requests for chicken finger dinners, or maybe Christy and I share a similar sense of warpedness, but that is absolutely hysterical.

Christy Raedeke said...

Yay for your warpedness, Anne and Tyler!

as sad as I am - I still dont get it. :( whaaaaaaa! But then again, I can never find the pics when i stare at ink blots either. (Not that I needed to look through ink blots ;)

Deb Markanton said...

Initially I did the Scooby response..."hu-uh?" then I stared for awhile and then the meatloaf one kicked out the big laugh. Crazy.

PurpleClover said...

OMG I'm an idiot! I get the chicken fingers one now. When I googled it: chicken finger lies, the first thing that pops up was Obama so I was thinking maybe you were taking a stab?

But that was way too deep. chickens don't have fingers. Right?? (Light bulb)

No really I'm an idiot. You have to confirm I got it or I'll still wonder. :P

Christy Raedeke said...

No, had nothing at all to do with politics. I LOVE OBAMA!

In the world of chickens and the world of fingers, the smaller world in which they overlap is a world of lies. There is no such thing!

It really sounds stupid when I explain it...

Have to say I didn't really get any of them at first. Actually thought it was the "food" meatloaf! Now it's hilarious...embarassed to say I was a Meatloaf fan back in the day. The song should have instantly popped into my head. I'm gonna have to go dig out my CD.

Little Ms J said...

I got it - very funny! I stare at graphs all day long, but you wouldn't even want to see mine. Economical/Investment Management performance data. Bor-ing. I wonder if I should slip these in to a stack "The Professor", an older college professor at work with NO sense of humor, is presenting on Monday....? He'd probably start shaking.

My favorite? The Meatloaf. I can't stand that man. After all that crying, running and bleating in his video it is nice to see his dramatics broken down and reduced to data. Ha!

Christy Raedeke said...

Debbie - glad you finally got it, I'm surprised it took you a moment!

Miss J - I double dog dare you to slip one of these into The Professor's PP slide presentation. That would be spectacular!

Hardygirl said...

Hilarious!!!!

I wonder what the "that" is that Meatloaf just won't do???

Rebecca Anne said...

I shall not admit if I got them right away, or if I needed the addendum or if I read each and every comment looking for hints and clues.
I admit nothing, except I found myself smiling a lot along this little pie journey.
Rebecca :o)

My favorite is the Meatloaf diagram. I think the Chicken/Fingers one would be better if instead of 'lies' it said, 'marketing.'

Shelli (srjohannes) said...

Im back still wondering - i still dont get it :( i must be one fry short of a happy meal!
