I love that ice pond one. Every once in a while I'll just yell "GIVE HIM THE STICK! DON'T GIVE HIM THE STICK!" and someone will reply with a ghostly "OOOOOoOooooOooooooOHHH!"
YES! YOU UNDERSTAND! That's exactly the part I was talking about. I can be in a room - as I was after my firends' wedding this Saturday, in the after-party hotel room - and say "Give him the {whatever noun we want to use at the time}, DON'T give him the {aforementioned noun}..........OooohhHHhhhooooOOOooohhhhHH.
It works every time. It's frightening. And fantastic.
The whole cognitive dissonance of that line makes me giggle. Every time. I haven't spoken the "Give him the {noun}...DON'T GIVE HIM THE {NOUN}!" bit in a while, but reading this I knew exactly where y'all were going.

Speaking of...Give him the key...DON'T GIVE HIM THE KEY!
