Re: My right arm

Post by Swatcat27 »

I have had shooting pains in my shoulder for a week now...Basically, when I circle my arm, I have excruciating pain at one particular angle. My wife just got off the hospital & Im staring at a mammooth bill, so I'm trying to fight my way thru the pain..its sad.

Yeah, but they'd only get half the beating from you that they would have normally.
Unless she used the amputated arm to beat us with.

I've heard the expression "I'm going to tear your arm of and beat you to death with it," but I think tearing your OWN arm off is way more bad[explicative].

Nah, he's with the joke. He was making a reference to an inside joke from high school (presumably for me to chuckle at) that I was going to make (for him to chuckle at) if he didn't.

No, TFG, I got the joke. Wasn't exactly an Oscar Wilde witticism (1/2 the arms --> 1/2 the beating). I chose a different take on having only one arm to set up a different joke. Since it followed the general idea of having one arm, I quoted the first joke.

Would it have worked better if I started with "what if she used the amputated arm to beat us with?" Probably, but I didn't think I needed that level of joke refinement to get the point across.

JC, I wasn't specifically trying to make an "in-reference," but I'm glad you remember.
