I was reading one of the other posts and just got to thinking, what would happen if we had a post of funny phrases taken out of context?

So we need some rules:

Don't try and set up or explain the phrase

Try to keep other comments to a minimum (I've found it's impossible to cut them out completely).

Other than that all I have to say is:

"He has a wife, you know."
 
Physics news on Phys.org
"Double charge??!"
 
"They're on Double Secret Probation"
 
"I say: This is NOT funny!"
 
"Do birds eat beans to fly faster?"

(by the way comics, literary sources, etc. are okay too)
 
"I heard the jury's still out on science."
 
Is it twue what they say about how you people are...gifted?
 
"Emanuel Kant was a real piss-ant. who was very rarely stable,"
 
Heidegger, Heidegger was a woozy beggar who could drink you under the table (oops, that wasn't out of context, was it?)
