Inferno! Puns

...it was Hell.

• It's too deep
• It's the pits
• The places made me go "What the Hell"
• It took an eternity for anything to happen
• I didn't get a lot of it , because the devil was in the details
• The so-called "smart" people in Hell use too much circular reasoning
• The main character is too down-to-earth
• Lucifer is unlikable, even though he is a central character
• It uses too much inflammatory language
• A lot of the action is too sin-tilating for me

Ok, that last one was pretty bad. I should be punished. I'll go die in a fire now.

"Inferno," he replied.

"OK," I added, "what about just in regular clothes?"

A real Al dente’s inferno

Last Saturday, I took a tour of a small private college with my mom and a friend who is considering going there. At one point in the tour, the tour guide begins to discuss her humanities classes that she took. One of them in particular was a class on Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, and she then began to mention her favorite part of the class was studying Inferno.

I then responded with, "Gee, I bet that was a hell of a class."

Groans and laughter then proceeded to consume the tour group, and the tour guide herself began to giggle.
