Funny post titles, add yours too!
 
If anyone is truly bored, how about thinking up a few post titles to get the party started? Here's a couple from me..

Should people with hairy toes wear sandals to Sedona?

Will you gain weight from drinking at 30,000 feet?

If I share my corn nuts with a stranger, will I catch a virus?

Okay, so it's a rainy Alaskan Saturday, but I know there are some good laughs to be had.

Well the Nudist Colony Trip Report is certainly up there for me.

Scarlett May 21st, 2005 06:11 PM

How about...
<i>Where can I find the best babysitter in Borneo?</i>


(that has a story to it actually)


jetset1 May 21st, 2005 06:21 PM

too funny. Makes me think of that awful thing in Australia where the woman said a dingo killed her baby.
Remember Elaine on Seinfeld using an accent and telling someone that a dingo ate the baby?

This one is actual: &quot; HELP! Should we go to California, Nova Scotia or Turks &amp; Caicos????&quot;

This one is made-up: &quot;On airplanes, why does the seat sign say 'Wear seat belt while seated'&quot;??? ( cld you wear your seat belt while standing???) ;;)

Hi jetset1. Loved &quot;weight restrictions in Europe?&quot; Knew what it meant but it still made me laugh, the thought of the custom agents weighing each passenger before allowing them into Europe.

jetset1 May 21st, 2005 07:20 PM

LoveItaly, that's a riot!
Yes, we only permit women under 97 lbs., a speedo is required for all men poolside, and waxing is highly advisable!

I always like the titles that ask &quot;What is there to do in NY city?&quot;.

emd May 22nd, 2005 02:08 AM

My all time favorite real true post title on this forum is:

&quot;Utah Quickie&quot;

(I can't recall if utahtea answered that one ASAP or not.)

Always makes me chuckle when I see it.

&quot;what to do on my honeymoon&quot;

bamakelly May 22nd, 2005 04:12 AM

The one about tipping the wheel chair person still makes me giggle.

&quot;Any good hostiles?&quot; http://www.fodors.com/forums/threads...p;tid=34426139

&quot;HELP!&quot;

&quot;Travel advice&quot;

Is_____worth it?&quot;

Though I can't find it, I think once there was a thread title something like &quot;Chow, everybody,&quot; and it was NOT meant as a joke (was on Europe forum, and was meant to be &quot;ciao.&quot;)

Byrd May 22nd, 2005 05:10 AM

These were on the Europe forum:

&quot;Bath on Saturday or midweek?&quot;

&quot;Virgin with baby question&quot;

&quot;I'm heaving on a jet plane.&quot; This was about a woman with air sickness.

&quot;Don't want to get arrested at the airport.&quot; This classic has now been deleted, but it was written by someone with outstanding warrants. He was asking if they look for arrest warrants when you check in for an international flight. It was a hoot, I wish they could bring it back.

I think jetset was looking for posters to make up funny or outrageous post titles. But as other posters have proven, we can't top some of the real ones that have appeared here.

Tess_Durberville May 24th, 2005 02:13 PM

One of the classic threads on this forum was &quot;I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison&quot;. However, I'm unable to pull it up; maybe it was jettisoned into cyberspace by Fodor's editors.

Another amusing title is &quot;BRAS--Do European women wear them?&quot; which can be found at http://www.fodors.com/forums/threads...&amp;tid=70465

As a &quot;dinky di&quot; Aussie, I too love that Seinfeld episode - &quot;Maybe a dingo ate your baby&quot; !!!

I think Bart Simpson made that comment too - it was hilarious.

Tess Durberville, I just looked at the BRAS thread and it's a hoot!! Or should I say, a hooter.

matnikstym May 24th, 2005 06:40 PM

will the guides on our kilimanjaro climb be able to push grampa up the hill in his wheelchair? or should we just leave him in the car?

elizabeth_reed May 25th, 2005 03:59 AM

I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison is a classic of the European thread, as is &quot;how much should I tip the pilot?&quot;

[A little history about the drunk momma. The late Steve Goodman (1948-1984) wrote what he thought was the perfect country song: &quot;You Never Even Call Me By My Name.&quot; David Alan Coe told him it was great, but he'd left out a few things like trains, momma, getting drunk, pickup trucks, prison, good dogs like old Shep, etc. So Steve added another verse that starts: &quot;I was drunk the day that momma got out of prison....&quot;]
