I bought an armchair a while back, but one day when I got home from work I saw that it had somehow turned itself into an ottoman. I called the furniture store to complain and was told "Oh, you must have bought an occasional chair."
Janis, don't let your fellow Americans disparage your wonderful joke. To an Englishman your joke is the height of sophisticated humour. A pun that would have them rolling in the aisles at any English comedy club.
That's terrible. Truly terrible. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt could easily be the worst.
ReplyDelete"It could easily be the worst."
ReplyDeleteTrue that.
Oh! Nevertheless, great 'toon, MP!
ReplyDeleteYes, Ellie! Very funny 'toon!!
ReplyDeleteThe whole thing is truly groanworthy. I hereby award this post the Golden Groaner Award of the month!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tracie. That means so much coming from someone with such an incredibly low brow taste in humour as yourself. I am honoured.
ReplyDeleteI AM blaming you for the Shoppe.
ReplyDeleteIt's a fair cop, JCF.
ReplyDeleteHey, don't take my Groaner Award, Jonathan!
ReplyDeleteIt's all yours, Janis.
ReplyDeleteHey, I get so little appreciation that I'll take any crumb, no matter how lame. :)
ReplyDeleteJanis, don't let your fellow Americans disparage your wonderful joke. To an Englishman your joke is the height of sophisticated humour. A pun that would have them rolling in the aisles at any English comedy club.
ReplyDeleteI consider it my duty as an American to groan at this pun. It is the highest honor we can bestow on such humour.
ReplyDeleteYou are quite right, Susan. Saying it's terrible is truly the highest of compliments! :-)
