Closed City Puns

Minneapolis?

We were staying in a hotel room that had a balcony door that didn’t fully close which causes a lot of city noise to come in.

It’s the morning and we are still in bed when she says, “I can’t stand this room!”

I reply, “Well, it’s a good thing you’re lying down!”

I was then pummeled with pillows.

My wife and I were sitting by one of the canals in my city when a duck came flying towards us. I shouted "Duck" as it flew close over our heads and was really please with myself. My wife doesn't even smile so I ask if she didn't think it was funny. Her reply: "I guess it went over my head"

When I was a wee lad, about 5 or 6 , my dad and I went to the beach on a vacation. I, having never seen the ocean, learned many new things, like how tides work, and how there's seemingly billions of white flying rats that the world calls Seagulls.

Fast forward a few weeks to us being back home in Kansas City, MO where no beaches or seagulls are to be found. My dad and I were running errands and found ourselves at the local Target, where in the parking lot I spotted dozens of white birds that looked eerily similar to the Seagulls I had learned about weeks before.

"Dad, what're those?" I inquired

"Oh, son those are called Parkinglotgulls. Yeah they're close cousins of the seagull!"

And that's how I came to call those white birds that flock around parking lots worldwide "Parkinglotgulls" even to this day.

I work in the recreation facility run by my local city government. (Side note, it's an awesome job for a college student)

Anyways, this evening I had an elderly couple (74 & 70) come in to sign up for one of the programs we offer here. I looked up the wife's name in the computer and saw her husband in the same household. I said to the husband,

"Are you Kent?"

"Last I checked."

Got a smile from me and a groan from his wife.

Closing our conversation, I told them both that the event was being held inside Gym 2, tomorrow at 12:00.

"Poor Jim."

I love this guy, haha.

So I was getting ready to take a trip to Africa and needed some immunizations before leaving. My dad and I get to the city health center, a two story building, and ask the security person how to get to the office we're looking for. We chat about the trip and all that, and she points us to the elevator. We get on, and she calls out "have a great trip!" As the doors are closing my dad says back

"What? We're just going to the second floor!" Thanks dad.
