Creepy Dude... My Wife Hates My Humor

I'm not really a creep dude. Really. I'm not.

...

Don't look at me like that! Seriously, though, that's just something my niece started calling me because I like to do funny voices and impressions. At least, I think they are funny. Babies certainly laugh. Not my wife, though.

I can make my voice sound like I just sucked in some helium. Then there's my tickle me Elmo impression. I also do a bit of Sean Connery from some of his various roles.. Oh, an my personal favorite (the babies really love this one) crying baby.

You see, my wife thought they were funny, too, at first. Unfortunately, I like to do these voices/impressions in public... which is what my wife really hates. I guess I might be a tad bit embarrassing to her.

The thing is, I like seeing people laugh. When I was growing up, it was my brother who was always the joker. I was the serious one. The straight man. Hardy to his Laurel; Abbot to his Costello; et cetera, et cetera. I was NEVER the 'funny one'.

Now, I can make people laugh on my own. If that means I have to be a little bit silly, from time to time... so be it. What's the worse thing that can happen? I'll get laughed at?

...

Been there, done that, got the t-shirt.

  1. Nobody should hate a man who can make babies laugh. It's worth hearing some silly voices in order to hear the best sound in the world.

    1. Yeah. She doesn't really hate me. It's just a little joke between us. ;)
      BTW, one time at work there was this little boy who was having a crying fit about his daddy (the child was with his grandmother at the time), and I got down with him and got him laughing and giggling.

      The grandmother told me I was great with kids, and should have 10 of them! o_O I love kids, but I don't think I'd be able to handle 10 of them!

      Thanks for the comment! I really appreciate it!

  2. Hahaha! I love it. I enjoy bursting out in random songs whenever the mood strikes. You can imagine how much my coworkers love me. My 5 year old son yells at me "enough with it! " I can't wait to embarrass him when he is a teenager.

    1. Hey, Enjoy Freebie!

      Yeah, I used to be in choir when I was in elementary school, so I love to sing. I used to sing at work all the time. Drove everybody nuts!

      Great comment! Thanks for sharing!
