    I’m dieing to know why this is funny.

  2. mah boi says:

    YES!!

  3. Pizzle says:

    FIRST!!

  4. idemidov says:

    Why red is so dangerous in East LA?
    And what about scouting party in Star Trek?

    • amethyst says:

      Only if you’re from the original Trek. By TNG the Security staff wore yellow. And have you not heard of gang colors?

  5. sane person says:

    Wow another Star Trek red shirt joke. Original.

  6. Yorkshyr says:

    You could also add the Balboa area of San Francisco where you can get stabbed wearing red.

  7. kg333 says:

    Also add the student section at a University of Kentucky game…I would /not/ want to be a Louisville fan anywhere near there.

  8. GROROHAPIUDHOAIL says:

    “Where you are at?”
    Never end your sentences in a preposition!

    • Andromache says:

      THANK YOU! That irks me like nothing else.

      An English professor once told us about a kid looking for the library:
      Student, “Where’s the library at?”
      Prof, “Never end a sentence with a preposition! We’re the kind of institution that encourages proper grammar.”
      Student, “Where’s the library at, a-hole?”
      Ha! I love geeky jokes.

    • meow says:

      That is a rule up with which I’d rather not have to put.

  9. fish eye no miko says:

    Bulls are colorblind. It’s not the movement of the cape that they charge at, not the color. You could wear red out in the arena, and you’d be… well, as safe as you’d be wearing any other color.
    In fact, do they even use exclusively red capes anymore? Heck, did they ever?

  10. drumrobot says:

    Bulls actually aren’t attracted/aggravated by red any more than they are by any other color. Movement is what counts.
    On a 100% unrelated note, Macs are better than Windows PCs.

  11. Kit says:

    For some reason I thought it said Cartman on South Park instead of Scouting on Star Trek. My mind is weird.

  12. Carson says:

    Ya know, the myth busters proved that wearing red in a bull fight isn’t going to make the bulls want to attack you more.

    • AceDevil says:

      I was going to mention that as well. It doesn’t matter what color it is. As long as you are provoking the animal, chances are it will charge at you.

  13. Muffin says:

    The Village. Don’t forget the dangers of red in The Village.

  14. IllusiveMan says:

    The only good red shirt joke I’ve heard in a LONG time was on Lost. “The crew guys that would go down to the planet with the main guys, the captain and the guy with the pointy ears, they always wore red shirts. And they always got killed.” “Sounds like a piss poor Captain.”

    • Starcat says:

      Uh, no…. Captain Kirk tended to wear gold, and the pointy-eared guy always wore blue. SCOTTY was the one who wore read, but he was always safely on the ship.

      • voice_of_reason says:

        The crew guys that would go down to the planet with the main guys, the captain and the guy with the pointy ears–they [referring to the crew guys] always wore red shirts. And they [the crew guys] always got killed.

  15. Crip#1 says:

    Red? What’s all this talk about red? Here’s a joke. What’s red and looks like blue cloth? Red cloth XD

    • Endarkened says:


      Possibly the WORST joke ever recorded on the internet. A monkey on LSD banging its head on the keyboard could make a better joke.

      Hehe, Monkey on LSD…

  16. strayers says:

    More important is to avoid red in Target, unless you already know where to find toe fungus remover.

    • somebody says:

      You beat me to it.

      I was going to say something like “Target on Christmas Eve” should be included at the level of “Mortal Danger”.

      Those customers looking for last-minute crap can be vicious.

  17. Alex says:

    Bulls are colour-blind, so it doesn’t matter what colour you wear.

  18. SkullCemetery says:

    This is so true. The guy in red in Star Trek usually dies( how did I know That?).

  19. TBone says:

    ummm…isnt it yellow that always died…damn guys check out the new star trek episodes

    • kg333 says:

      They changed the color of Security from red in the original series to yellow later on. However, the meme about “red-shirts” stuck from TOS.

  20. California Dave says:

    Wearing red at Angels Stadium – none.

  21. Parker. says:

    You do realize that he never says anything about dying or being injured for bullfighting and east L.A. Just saying you’ll survive doesn’t give the impression that you will be hurt but maybe that he is implying on current beliefs that red is a “dangerous color.”

    • RS says:

      Nice graph reading skills. It’s on the scale between Slight Danger and Mortal Danger, so you should have an idea of what the “You’ll Survive” here implies.

  22. Haruhi Suzumiya says:

    You forgot wearing red when the Raiders’ opponents wear red. Raider fans are natural-born killers.

  23. Amy says:

    secretly everybody is a nerd but nobody wants to admit it
