A list of puns related to "Sires"
...so he called in his court wizard to devise a means of defense. The wizard set to work at once. First, he wove a net, tightly so that nothing could escape. Then he traveled to the nearby lake.
For three days, he went to the edge of a dock, and cast his net into the water. Each time, he collected many small fish, until he had gathered thousands.
He then took the fish to his study, and carefully processed them, crushing them into a sticky paste. Warming the paste, he began to lather it across the walls of the maze.
When the king learned of this, he was very angry.
"How dare you cover my walls with fish paste!" he said.
The wizard replied, "But sire, everyone knows to protect a labyrinth, one must use a minnow tar."
There once was a princess named Emily, but the royal family called her Em for short. One day the king posed a riddle in order to choose a suitor for his eldest daughter, Elizabeth. The riddle was as follows:
Elizabeth has two apples, and Emily has one apple. Emily gives Elizabeth her apple as a wedding gift. How might you calculate the total amount of apples Elizabeth has presently?
Many days passed and no one could figure out the answer. Of course, on the first day a man came and answered, βSire, to calculate the amount of apples Elizabeth has, you must add Emilyβs apple.β He was promptly executed.
After this, the kingdom was stumped. Nobody knew how to calculate Elizabethβs apples if the answer was not to simply to add Emilyβs apple, and none dared to try and answer unless they were absolutely sure of it.
One night, a young man, determined to find the answer, climbed up the palace walls to watch the royal family as they ate.
βFather,β said Emily, βhave you made the riddle too hard? No one has been able to guess it yet.β
βNo worries Em,β responded the king, I have confidence that the time will come soon.β
The young man descended the wall, having learned the secret to the riddle.
The next day, dressed In his finest clothes, the young man approached the king with the answer to the riddle.
βWhat is your answer, young man?β declared the king.
The young man replied, βIn order to calculate Elizabethβs apples, you must ADD EMβS APPLE.β
The king answered βlol get it?β
One made a messiah and the other "made a mess, sire".
Sitting at the table for Father's Day, my 16 year old daughter decided to be grand in her wishing me a happy father's day.

My mother in law glared. Everyone else laughed.
