A picture of the store DrCurry and hippo are joking about. It's one of my favorite stores, ever; not just for the relatively low prices, wide selection, and reliable service, but for the amazing transportation system that spans the ceiling, and for the employees dressed about 1/3rd in full Hasidic garb. On Jewish holidays, even their *website* closes. [jutta, Nov 26 2006]

Ah. I was hoping this had to do with cameras. - |

Players (on words) Please + |
|

in fairness to idea, is it not a bit more
interesting than just a list of puns,
although it does contain this, and some
of them are not bad? The idea of
opening each advent window, then
smoking the indicated cigarette is
original - come on - defend your idea
like a man/mouse/woman [theleopard] |
|
| |
is the smoke puffed out at you or do you poke the cigarette out of the window to smoke it? can't picture this one at all. |
|
| |
[jutta] This is more than the puns, although since the tiny fragment of idea is to combine two widely available products this may not help it much. Still, + for making me laugh. |
|
| |
My apologies for not explaining the idea fully, it's simply an advent calendar which contains cigarettes rather than chocolates. I know a great many smokers that would appreciate a festive smoke in the morning rather than a low-quality sub standard choccy bite. |
|
| |
The puns came naturally afterwards as I pondered the various Tobacco companies and the names they might don to their respective calendars. |
|

//Ah. I was hoping this had to do with

Same here - and I
was all ready with some retort to the
effect that B&H would be fairly unlikely
people to celebrate Christmas very
enthusiastically. |
|
| |
So not about my local football team then? Oh. |
|
| |
[hippo], why not? Can't camera manufacturers celebrate the birth of baby J as much as the next company? |

Glad to hear it, [theleopard]. I have recently been born again as a Spaz and and I'm looking for other Spaz's to worship with. |
|
| |
Do we believe in some kind of afterlife? |
|
| |
When five or six of you die, the leftover bits get stuck together to form a new person? |
|
| |
Just in case I'm not the only one. I had no idea what both B&H and Advent Calender were. (+ after I figured it out.) |
|
| |
I hate it when I can't come up with puns
because english is not my mother tongue :

Yeah....I'm an anti-smoker..... But it is kinda funny. I think of a person, smoking the month's fancy cigar/cigarette, looking at their nifty calendar, and grimly counting down the days of their existence. They don't care, they've got a cigar! Yaay! Did I say grimly? I meant cheerfully! And chokingly.... Well, I'll change to neutral, then I'll become Emperor of the World and outlaw smoking. Merry Christmas! |
