Quick-Fire Quips

Playing a short word in Scrabble or Words With Friends is sometimes the most rewarding. The same can often be true of the shortest joke. A clever play on words can catch any listener or reader by surprise. Once they process what they’ve heard, you can sit back and see if their reaction is to be giddy or shoot a glare. Either way, you got what you wanted.

Jokes With a Pun-chline
