The Bouncy Puns

The entry is quite expensive, mostly due to inflation.

I said, “That’s outrageous!”

He just shrugged and said, “That’s inflation for you.”

That's inflation for you

Due to inflation

That’s inflation for you.

Between an Bouncy Australian Marsupial and a Geordie stuck in a coal mine? . . . . ...one's a Kangaroo the other is a Kangeroot.

When we were Christmas shopping for our kids, we went to target. After walking around for a while I got bored and eventually found a bouncy ball. It was a small inflatable basketball about tennis ball sized and being inflated instead of solid rubber, it made a louder noise when it hit the ground.

We were walking around and I was bouncing the ball. My wife got visibly irritated at the constant noise following her around and told me to please put it down. I bounced it again and said "I'm trying, but every time I do, it comes back up into my hand"

Que the groan.

My brother and I were told we'd become lords of castles when my father passed. The mischievous old git was true to his word: my brother is now lord of a bouncy castle, and I rule a fairy-tale castle.

He feels let down, but I'm made up!

Today, I went out to lunch with some fellas from my office, Dave and Mike.

We all opted for the "beer and sandwich deal": any beer < $6 and any sandwich from the lunch menu for $10. Can't beat that in Hoboken, NJ.

One of my coworkers ordered a Sam Adams something-or-other and our bouncy little waitress pranced off to fetch our beverages. When the waitress returned with our potables she placed a beer, amber in color, 1/2" or so foamy head, in front of my coworker and said:

"Sam?"

To which I immediately announced "No, that's Dave."

Laughs were had all around. I cringed at myself but I couldn't help it.

"This bouncy castle is twice the price of last year" Dad no "That's.." Please no dad "..Inflation for you" kids start crying

My young daughter really used to like that cartoon character "Dora the Explorer" and one day my wife bought her a bouncy ball with the Dora motif on it. She showed it to me and I said "That's adorable". Because it was a Dora ball. Apparently 4yo is too young for puns.

We were watching the news and some story about a bouncy house the flew up into the air with kids still inside came on and my dad said "Well, that's quite a bang for your buck."
