Doesn't Everyone Get Busted By Someone When They're Secretly Miming? Fool.



I got totally busted by my wife yesterday.

You know this post that I put up the other week with David Armand doing mime to the song Torn?

Well I was cooking and the song came on. So of course I started to act out the video. Then the next song on the radio was Billy Joel's "It's Still Rock and Roll to Me". So I started acting it out in the same mime style. Trying to see if I could mime the lyrics.

Well, I thought my wife was in the other room when all of a sudden she appears. I of course stop mid-mime and have a look of horror on my face. It's something I would have done in front of her but just to get busted like that...

My wife started laughing her ass off and can barely get out the words, "What...hahaha...What...hahaha...hahaha...are...hahahaa...you doing"???

Busted! I never get embarrassed in front of my wife but it was a combo of embarrassment and shock that she was standing there.

What a fool.

Really? THIS is the embarrassing thing from yesterday? Pfftt...that's nothing. I get caught doing that all the time and just keep on going. In the kitchen, in the car, working out. I don't care. Embrace your inner musical mime.

At least you weren't doing it Red Hot Chili Pepper style, wearing only a tube sock!

Wait....you weren't were you?

Stacey - it's just the totally getting busted

A better question is who secretly mimes Billy Joel songs? Dude!

At least you didn't get caught miming Lady Gaga's Love Game song.

"...i wanna take a ride on ya disco stick..."

That would be embarrassing/awesome.

So...
Is there video of this?
People make a lot of money off of stuff like this. I know cuz I watch AFV.

oh honey!!
Me and my hubs cracked up with tears when we watched the video you posted, and to think of you doing this "under the radar" and getting busted makes me laugh!!

BE EARL - I agree. It's sad that it was a Billy Joel song. The radio in my kitchen has only been picking up a few channels.

LOVE that you're a "mimer of lyrics!" I'm guessing your wife does, too! Just curious, are you taking requests? I, for one, would love to see "We Didn't Start the Fire" by Billy Joel. Video next week? Yes?

Thanks for the laugh!

There's your mistake. Instead of pausing, mid-mime, you should have cranked it up to 11. Then it wouldn't have counted as getting busted.

The same doesn't work for that thing you do in the shower.

Anything Naked - Thanks for calling me a mimer. I'm going to introduce myself with that term.

As for taking requests. I will take it but I can't promise I'll fulfill it.

If I get into an accident or something and I'm bed ridden and have lots of time on my hands I will record it.

That usually happens to me, but with Prince songs.



If I wasn't embarrassed before, I certainly am now.

At least you didn't have bagel & cream cheese stuck in your teeth.
I'm sure your wife thought you looked adorable, and loves you more than ever.

It's so stupid that I have to type in the word "nerpho" in this box below here.
