I posted this on a thread a few months ago, but I thought I'd add it to this thread:
I'm sure you've all been at a typical boring meeting and started laughing uncontrollably. Well, this topic made me thing of a time we were studying the Greatest Man book. The reader was supposed to read "a manger-fed bull" but instead he said "a manager-fed bull". My husband (Little Drummer Boy) started innocently chuckling (he was picturing a young McDonald's manager being fed right into a bull's mouth)then his laugh became contagious. Within a minute, several people were desperately trying to stifle their laughter. LDB couldn't control it, and had to leave the hall. He got to the back of the hall and let out a high pitched yelp with his hand over his mouth, instantly stirring up the laughter. The book study conductor had to stop in the middle of the study to ask what was so funny. It was one of the few times we actually had fun at a meeting.
Here's another one:
When LDB and I were newly married, I tried (and failed miserably) to make a crock pot of ham and beans. It was awful!!! We came to the bookstudy hungry, because we didn't have time to make anything else. The book study conductor (who was also "of the annointed") asked how we were, so we briefly related our awful dinner story. Well, part way through the study, there was a minute where it was really quiet because we were all trying to look up a scripture or something, and a baby sitting near us in his car seat let out a HUGE bubbly fart. The bookstudy conductor laughed and said "Well put that in the crock pot!" We laughed, but no one else knew what he was talking about.
