Love them all but Capricorn, Intersect and Pumpkin may be my faves. They inspired eye rolling grins. Grazie!
Are these original? Or did you find them somewhere?
In any event ... clever, clever, clever. And funny! Lot of imagination in play.
Donna: We aim to please.....
Nan: There's more where these came from -- see the link at the end. Yep, they're all original with me, except for a few in one of the earlier posts (I always give credit).
You owe me! I spewed ice tea all over the screen at "pumpkin."
The Carrot one is my favorite of this bunch. These were all good though.
Apparently the vegetable references are a hit -- I'll remember that when I do the next compilation.
Thanks everyone!
English is certainly a unique language not like many others
Actually, Japanese would have even more potential for this kind of thing -- but I agree, most languages wouldn't.
Post a Comment
Please be on-topic and read the comments policy. Spam, trolls, and fight-pickers will be deleted. If you don't have a Blogspot account and aren't sure how to comment, please see here. Fair warning -- I reject all comments containing any of the following:
1. Support for transgenderism
2. Negativity about Brexit
3. Support for a military draft or compulsory national service
I am not obligated to provide a platform for views I find morally abhorrent. And obviously I'm going to delete anything which is just quoting what an "AI" said. I want to hear from you, not from the always-wrong hallucination machine.
No comments advocating violence against any specific identifiable individual, even jokingly.
Please be considerate -- no political or politics-tinged comments on non-political posts, and no performative cynicism. Finally, please remember that this is a personal blog whose main purpose is to encourage contact from people with similar interests and world-views to mine. I really don't much care for arguing and debating; if arguing and debating is what you want, there are plenty of other places on the internet which welcome that.
From now until the finalization of the election results, no comments claiming the Republicans (or Democrats) will or can "steal" the election. It's pointless to engage with such stuff, and it promotes defeatism, which makes people less likely to vote or otherwise be politically active.
