Instead she just made me falafel.

I can't help but falafel.

But I’d falafel if I offended anyone.

I have to remind him what Israel.

They call him Iran Man

Iran and tripped on Iraq

...It was fal-awful

I said "Yemen!"

I was fine earlier, but now I falafel.

It was due to the bounty on his head

I thought hmmm.... that’s bazaar.

He subsequently falafel.

I say Middle Eastern cuz I honestly forget if he's Iraqi or Iranian. We were getting to know each other, and I asked him to tell me a fable from his country of origin. It went like this:

Ali: In (the town he grew up in), there is a tower. A very very tall tower, many stories high, with only stairs. And legend says that if you climb all the way to the very top...

(pause)

Me: What happens?

Ali: completely straight face You will get very dizzy.

That was it. I thought it was hilarious.

I falafel.

.....cause now I falafel.

Every time I eat it I falafel.

and he told me it was stupid. He was right and I falafel about it.

(Original joke was "You know how I feel after I eat middle eastern food? I falafel." He was not amused and just shook his head at me.)

My husband is the punniest person in the world, a sample of his humor:

I was eating in a Middle Eastern restaurant when I heard a loud noise, "kabob, kabob", I falafel my chair, there was a double hummus side at the next table. I didn't try to be a gyro, then a shawarma police rushed in.

My dad and I were standing in front of the fridge looking for something to eat. After staring for a few seconds my dad found some week old home-made hummus behind the milk. I asked if he wanted to eat it and he replied:

"Eating this will only make me want to commit hummus-cide."

Groaning ensued.

I falafel.
