Lots and lots of groaners today. And I refuse to grow up.

Mike said...

Sue - Why start now?!

River said...

That last one describes me.

Bilbo said...

The difference between Texas and the Titanic. Classic!

Kathy G said...

"Drinking a zero-sugar soda gives you permission to have that candy bar. It's the law." Or a huge hunk of cake.

John A Hill said...

Quite a few good ones today.
Btw, I read them while looking out over the ocean 🌊

jenny_o said...

An excellent crop - so many good ones I had a hard time picking a favourite, but I think it might be the Worcestershire/Saskatoon/Saskatchewan/etc. one :) Thanks for the smiles.

Kathy - Not a piece but a hunk? I like it! I'm a pie guy. I could eat a hunk of pie anytime.

Funny thing - I wondered about that when I read it, but way back in my brain I thought careers was also correct. So after your reply I checked and yes, they can both be used, although careens is more used in North America. Careen originally meant tipping over, and later came to mean the lurching motion as a vehicle sways side to side, while careers means rushing headlong. If you care to read more, it's here:

allenwoodhaven said...

Many smiles and old ones to jog my memory to tell them again. Thanks!

Mike said...

Jenny - I've never heard of career being used that way. The only way I've ever known is in regard to work. I wonder if spell check changed it and I failed to notice. I try to reread everything several times but you know how that goes.

Allen - I'm glad you have the memory to do that. I usually forget them right after I type them. I only remember them when I read them again. It would be interesting to go back and see how many I've repeated. ... Na...
