The Stoic Puns

We were taking a tour of a national park, where you drive around in your car and look at all the fauna from a distance. (Think safari, but in the US instead of the Savanna)

My grandfather, who is very stoic and usually pretty quiet, asked us if we wanted to hear his deer call. We of course said yes, so he takes his time rolling up a magazine to use as a megaphone.

He rolls his window down, puts the makeshift megaphone to his mouth...takes a deep breath...and shouts "HERE DEER, HERE DEER!!"

Grandpa was usually pretty stoic, but he had one joke that he never got tired of. Whenever we sat at the table and were about to take a sip of a drink or a spoonful of soup a loud "SSSSSLLUUUUUURRRRRP" would come from Grandpa, who then told us with all seriousness that we were being too noisy with our meals
