Like Wordless Wednesday, but different


My mom has this cactus on her back porch.
I saw it recently and was a tad scandalized.
I said, "Mom, that cactus is obscene"
and she said, "I know, but it's a living thing."

That's just funny right?

I'm not just wordless, I'm speechless. But it's because I'm laughing so hard! And I really needed a good laugh today too.

thanks for sharing it.

Tammy said...

OK -- I totally just had water come out of my nose - that was just the medicine I needed after a crappy day.

Thanks for sharing that.

Amy said...

That cactus appears to have peyronies disease! Seriously! Look it up!

I have had a hard time commenting because I'm speechless...
There's gotta be some bizarre plant contest somewhere- you could win big. Like free fertilizer for a year or something.

Mamaof3 said...

OK...Thanks for the laugh! What a great way to start the day!

jt said...

Ahhh... so glad you're back.
I'm going to discipline myself to start commenting again.

Thanks, I really needed a good laugh. Jared has caused me to be beyond annoyed and sad about his behavior during the girls memorial day program at school. I had to walk out during Lindsey's part because he was so awful. I really shouldn't be crying about that, but I am.

I've been waiting to see the photo since you told me about it, and it did not disappoint -- too funny!

And I'm dying over Claudia's comment...

Amy said...

So funny! Great illustrative picture!

Melinda said...

That is so funny! That was the first thing I thought when I saw the picture and then thought I was so gross for thinking that first, unitl I read your post. I am glad I am not the only one with a dirty mind!

stefanie said...

Obscene indeed. I laughed out loud when the photo popped onto my screen before I read on.

crystal said...

Bwwwwaaaaahahahahaha! (if I were there in person, you'd be treated to my uncontrollable honk-laugh)

How dare that cactus wave his private parts so indiscriminately??!!??

crystal said...

Oh, I'm giggling now from Claudia's & Patsy's comments!

Claudia has a point: as long as that cactus stays in the pot where he belongs, there should be no objections!

And Patsy's remark about winning free "fertilizer" made me double over in laughter!!! Get it..."fertilize?!" Oh my goodness! And let me tell YOU! Making a very-pregnant woman double over is no small task!!! Oh geez, I love those funny women!

Laurie said...

Now we've all been scandalized! That's hilarious.

Lene said...

I can't stop laughing. That is way too funny.
I must agree with Claudia. No harm in the pot.

melanie said...

Your mom' comment is a crack up. The photo is hilarious. And Claudia is one of a kind!

Tiffany said...

That is too funny! Thanks for the giggle!!!

becca said...

Yes...that is HILARIOUS!!!

Kristin said...

I think that is hilarious!! I also think your mom should put that on her front porch. It might drive away all the solicitors and those nice but annoying people from church who stop by without calling!!

Hailey said...

that cactus is radical. . .

Amanda :-) said...

What a sorry-looking cactus! It'd serve you right, though, if it bloomed a huuuuuge, enormous, exotic-looking flower out of the top. Just to prove your mum right!

I think this picture is a MUST for Good Mail, Jill! Hilarious.

Bond Girl 007 said...

this has reminded me of a photo my parents took on some hwy going to rocky point....I need to research the files, it might just might be his father!

Erin said...

Now that is Gross Anatomy!

(And can I say ouch! My gyno should have that picture next to his nametag! He is not very gentle. TMI?)

I so needed that laugh today! I adore you so!

Amie said...

Oh my.
