Torrential Puns

Female co-worker: "Awww. Poor Santa! He's getting drenched!" Me: "It's okay. Santa likes rain, dear."

Make it reign

I recently went with a bunch of friends to see a hockey game at the University of Michigan. If you don't know, everyone who goes to that school is obsessed with their fight song which is titled "Hail to the Victors".

Anyway, we get outside the arena and then a torrential downpour starts. Our group runs underneath a bus stop awning thing to wait out the storm.

Then loud cracks start to be heard. Frozen rain has started to fall everywhere.

We look around at each other.

"Hey guys..." I say.

Everyone tenses up. I see the disappointment on their faces. They know what is about to come out of my mouth.

"Hail to the Victors!"

I was changing on my way out of work and a co-worker said (in regards to the torrential downpour outside), "I should have brought my toed shoes!" The chef, who was nearby, butted in and said "You have toad shoes?! How many toads does it take to make a shoe?" Needless to say he gained some more of my respect

My dad walks up to me and says, "It's supposed to rain spiders tonight."

Mildly terrified by this imagery, I furrow my eyebrows and respond, "huh?"

He explains, "We're supposed to get torrential rains tonight. Tarantula downpours. Get it?"

Hah.
