These keep getting better. Dickinson just about had me on the floor!
I did an LOL at Dickinson. Shame on me.
Oooh Dickinson is wickedly funny but sad too.
I think you must have to have a certain kind of brain to do this. I don't have it, but you sure do. I liked "incur" and "substance" especially.
Dickinson almost made me spit out the gum I'm chewing!
They're all great!

Very comical (the guy named Al you share a microphone with) and ʷ (witty, a very tiny W).

I love tgis feature. These are always so amazing.
