This, of course, does nothing to dissuade me from proffering a few timely Swifties, inundated as we've been by the political dog-and-ponying of the seemingly endless presidential election.

You've been warned.

  • "Let's make a film about global warming," Tom said allegorically.
  • "Those fanatics blew up the abortion clinic!" said Tom prolifically.
  • "Can you believe the price of fuel these days?" winced Tom in gastronomic pain.

If you have a punny itch that needs relief and release, feel free to unload it here.
