Christmas Group Puns

“Because if there’s one thing I can’t stand, it’s chess nuts boasting in an open foyer”

“The Humbugs”

Roommate (who for reference is gay) is putting up the reusable artificial Christmas tree with a group of friends. He steps back to look at his work, then turns around and asks “maybe it’s me, but this tree doesn’t look straight”

Me: “probably because it just came out of the closet”

A group of bar regulars walk into a bar for their annual day-after-Christmas gift exchange. As they are opening their gifts, one completely bald man opens his box to discover a lovely comb. "Ah, thanks guys," the bald man says. "I'll never part with this."

I was asked to help chauffeur a carload of youth around town for a Christmas caroling activity last night. One of the names on the list was Jack, who lost his wife earlier this year. Jack is in his early 90's, stands about 5'2, and is quite possibly the king of all dad jokes.

So, the group of about 25 kids and 5 adults sneak up to his doorstep and begin singing a few short Christmas carols. Eventually, he opens the door and is thrilled to have visitors.

After we are finished singing and the kids are all running back to the vehicles to get out of the 15 degree weather, jack steps out of his doorway and on to his porch. He is wearing a light t-shirt and pajama pants... he was setting us up, and we took the bait, hook, line, and sinker.

Woman: Are you freezing?

Jack: No, I'm not freezing, I'm Jack (pause for laughter)

Jack: but if you hang on for just a minute, I can get freezing for you.

and then he just stood there smiling at us. It was precious. Come to find out, Jack is entering a retirement home in a few days because he is getting to the point that it is hard to take care of himself anymore.

Oh boy, those nurses are in for a treat once Jack gets settled in.

Today at work, my co-worker and I are decorating the group home we are working in for Christmas. As she finishes decorating the tree, she asks;

Her: The tree looks nice. I don't want to put the rest of the ornaments on it though, cause it'll look clutter. What should we do?

Me: Well... we can always deck the halls?

Followed by lots of laughing while she face palmed and walked out the room.
