Each month they would revise the percen... |

| Sometimes I also think of things that strike me as funny, like a song title, or a mixed up song title and want to share the joke with others. Here on Wrongplanet sometimes people take things literally and don’t get when someone is joking. You can add a smilie or emoji to help people know when you ar... |

| It is also somewhat amusing that the words seem to be misspelled, as OP pointed out, especially when you are a school student and so much emphasis is put on “correct” spelling. As a young student it is funny to point to adults who “can’t spell”. Sometimes understanding what is funny requires perspec... |

| Curtis Armstrong disco dancing in a 1970s “the slobs vs the snobs” film about social classes and college education. In case anyone cares: I imagine a hypothetical prequel to this dog: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revenge_of_the_Nerds https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/54/Revengeofthener... |

It's a 70s disco song. Did you post this because you actually thought that that was the actual title of the song? Or did you knowingly distort the title of the song on purpose in a lame bid for laughs?

| Perhaps the spelling was correct but some words were repeated for musical effect. The title of the song is sometimes given as “Rag Mop” and sometimes as “Ragg Mopp” but the former (with the correct spelling) is the usual title. If you are having trouble finding it try adding “Ames” to your search. T... |
