1970s/80s: You are about to lie or make an excuse.

mid90s onwards: You are in bit of a soup and you have a semi-valid excuse. So you just say "funny story" and its understood that you are not going to hold your end of the bargain.

Friend1: Did I see you driving my car yesterday ?
Friend2: Funny story... I was looking for _my_ car keys and ...

Manager: How are we placed on the back order from Big Company ?
You: Funny Story.

Funny Story Bro.

The way you begin your story when you are about to lie to your friend or make an excuse.

Example1:

Christian: So Philip told me that he saw you watch a movie with my sister last Friday night.

DJ: Haha, Funny Story Bro....

Example2:

Jordan: So I heard you slept over my girlfriend's house last Friday night.

DJ: Haha, Funny Story Bro...
