Laugh Out Loud - So I was saying...Unreasonable Slow

Writer's picture: Not Shellyfish🐚Not Shellyfish🐚

Here’s a joke to start us off:

Melody was talking on the phone while Cindy listened to her on the side.

“No. You don’t say! Really? You don’t say! Uh-huh. Ok. You don’t say! Wow. Ok, bye.”

She hung up.

“Who was that?” Cindy asked.

“He didn’t say.”


Dialogue from today!


“So I was saying—” T.K. began.

“I was saying—” Alven deliberately interrupted.

“Bro, you already said what you wanted to say. Now I was saying—you need to eat your food. So I was saying—oi, watch it. So I was saying—yes? ’Chu lookin’ at? So I was saying—oh man, now I forgot what I was saying.”

“I knew that was gonna happen!” I yelled as Cynthia and I laughed.


Traffic police incident from my parents


So, my parents were driving home with my little brother. They stopped for pedestrians at a crosswalk several yards before a traffic light and then got pulled over. The officer came over and asked them why they stopped at the crosswalk while the light was green. My dad was like uh, cuz there were people crossing? And the dude said they weren’t supposed to stop; they should’ve just kept going because there was a green light. So my dad asked if he should’ve gone ahead and run the people over.

THE OFFICER SAID YEAH, THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BECAUSE IT WAS GREEN AND THEY DIDN’T WANT TO MISS THE LIGHT.

He literally told them they were going “unreasonable slow” while they should’ve sped up, ignoring the people crossing, and rushed to beat the green light. (Btw he was obviously speaking in Swahili, so where “unreasonable slow” came from, I have no idea.)

After some more arguing, he saw my little brother in the back seat, and when he found out my parents had just come back from a doctor’s appointment where my brother got a shot, he changed his mind and decided to let them go. His excuse was that he felt sorry for my brother.

Yeah right. Like I’ll believe that.

Hujambo, Shelly! May I say that the "laws" of the Tanzanian police are quite odd sometimes. In the U.S., the pedestrian ALWAYS has the right-away.
