You think he took them?????

Have you reported this to a de-toe-ctive?

he was an obvious kleptoemaniac from the start, so perhaps the CID will have him on file...

Didn't Alexis De Toecqueville write about this problem?

no, it was Phalanges, the famous greek poet.

Groooooooaaaaaannnnnnn

That was baaaad, Kvetch.

did he write the one about the mi-no-toe-r?

the no-toe-rious son of King Minos?


(these terribly stretched puns are beginning to make me feel ill now, but I'll go toe-to-toe with you for as long as it takes )

I will draw up an agreement to stop, if you will agree to get it no-toe-rized.

send me a digit-al copy, and I'll have a look.

How about something like this:

We the undersigned, do hereby agree to a toetal end to these untoeward pun posts.

Toetally acceptable. Digital Signature with PGP ok?

Mind you, this move may be the nail in the coffin of the pun industry, however, I suppose we will have to be callous about it, and go with the best interests of what is a near toetality of the general public.

Corny jokes aside, my only regret is that I couldn't get a pun on metoetarsal in.

Did the last one go toe far?

AARRRGHHH must stoep before I go toetally mad.

oh good lord, enough already.... I can't even take a sip of my diet coke for fear of spraying it all over the bloody place! evil! I'm going home.

My apologies, everyone. Yesterday Kvetch and I were afflicted with a strange new variation on Toerettes syndrome. I think it has now passed, and everything should be back to normal. Sorry!

I got a toerible shock when I noticed that you had ressurrected this. My nerves wil not long take it clong.

Kvetch, perhaps you should consider moving this entire OT (off toepic) discussion over to the pun thread?

Since we had this discussion [Mod alert: off-line link de-activated. --Brad], I've been on a trip than included some time in Brussels.

Now, I got there by sleeper train, so you will not be suprised that, stumbling off the train at about five in the morning, I thought I was hallucinating when confronted with this dreadful vision:







Then, while site-seeing I saw this as well:

Done ... and not toe shabby a job, I might add.

I'm surprised the Lotto sign (in the 2nd photo) doesn't say "Lottoe."

Maybe that would be toe much?

What's up with the toe-rrent of puns?

umm...I have ten toes.

Brad has nine toes (his goat ate one in toe-ture, because he ignored the goat is favor of Mrs. Brad).

My toes are toely.

I keep using the word toe too often.

Am I toe-turing myself by talking about too many toes?

Kvetch, I had no idea that Brussels was such a hot destination for toerists (or should I say toe-errists?).

or should I say toe-errists ?

I'd only say that if I had toe-rettes syndrome.

Should I take that to mean you're not a tea toetaller, Brad?

It damn well isn't at six in the morning let me tell you. Everywhere was shut, including the organisation that regulates the EU's used road-surface selling buisnesses.

But then they were in charge of meta-tar-sells...


I've been trying to work in a pun on metatarsals since the thread started - and that was the best I could come up with. I apologise (for the low quality, not for the pun itself)
