I have a work acquaintance who does this in the most unfunny way. You could say you injured your Achilles tendon, and he'd reply he has an Achilles elevendon, and it's made out of steel and never hurts..

This sounds like a joke I have with two of my work acquaintances
All both of em eh?
You're not going to believe this but a third one joined us at my work.
The elevendon was funny the rest wasn't :(
Brevity is the soul of wit
Yes but it wouldn't be funny if they just said "Heh, elevendon". It need a delivery sandwich. Maybe there's a funnier sandwich though.
"You should get the latest upgrade. (Point down. Pause for effect).... Elevendon."
idk i might find that pretty funny
I'd lol
This sounds like a joke I'd make. Most of the time, I'm only making myself chuckle.
That joke reminds me of a full-length Netflix comedy special I did with my whole family…
...the Aristocrats?
That's pretty good, but I prefer The Aristocratter
are you kidding this is hilarious.
anyway back to practice with my band, teradeth
I'm a big fan! My favorite song of yours is Sweating Magazines.
They're alright. Leadalica are better, tho. "Two" is a masterpiece.
We call that banter (also a personality trait) "Topper".
Me and my cousin have 2 ongoing bits.
Me and my three cousins have four ongoing bits.
Amongst my cousins and bits ongoing are fear, surprise, and an almost fanatic support of Pope Tim Minchin
Tim Minchin rules.
Your cousin's a classy lady.
I prefer to be more realistic, like House of 999 Corpses and Medium Speed Car.
Yeah, that's pretty good, but my film House of 998 Corpses and 1 Live Orange Cat is sure to be a hit
I have a couple of friends who do the exact same thing .... but it isn't funny or humorous
It's funnier during the millisecond it's in my head.
Story of my life..
Knowing your audience is important
I've given up in telling them any new information at this point.
The funny thing is that they're imagination had dried up and they can't give to share anything new anymore. We're older so as the years go by, it's getting to the point where they start recommending things they already recommended years ago.
I have three friends who do the same thing but it's funny and humorous!
My favourite actor is Alan Threedyk.
