Methinks Poly’s going to get a Mr. Potatoe Head in his stocking this year.

You do that on purpose?
Even better - “Pollies going to get a Mr. Potatoe Head in his stalking this year.”
This reminds me of the time I tried to come up with a joke that could have the punchline “A Santa Without a Clause.”
To my dismay, the only one that made my husband laugh went like this:
“Knock knock.”
“Who’s there?”
“A Santa Without a Clause.”

One of my own favorite puns I committed on this board had to do with sloppy cooks who “wear their roux with a difference.”
[/QUOTE]
I’ve said that aloud at least ten times, and I still don’t get it. It is pronounced “roo”, correct?
Yes, “roux” is pronounced “roo” and so is “rue”–the word you are probably missing.
I received a note that said “Marry Christmas.”
Why would I want to do that?
[QUOTE=Polycarp]
It is a shitty pun.

At least it’s better than the Rose Suchic Ladder Company.

…pilots a flying 8-RDP sleigh…
[/QUOTE]
If this means “eight reindeer-powered sleigh”, then shouldn’t it be abbreviated “8-RP sleigh”?* 
- I am taking this opportunity to state that I deplore the requirement of placing punctuation within the trailing quote of a quoted-word/phrase that ends a sentence.
