4.0 out of 5 stars
If you like humor based on wordplay, then this is a book you will enjoy,
By Charles Ashbacher (Marion, Iowa United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: Unexplained Sniglets of the Universe (Paperback)
Wordplay, specifically creating words from syllables that have the right sounds, is a form of humor like no other. No person or group is the butt of the joke and many of them require a bit of thought. Done right, they can amuse and impress you, as they are often the result of a very creative imagination. Some examples are:*) Peepola - the gap in the dressing room curtain that can never be completely closed. *) Pastaplegic - person who's eaten so much spaghetti he can't move. *) Garbpaction - the act of cramming just one more item into a garbage can to avoid emptying it. *) Choctasy - the joy of discovering a second layer of chocolates under the first. If you like humor based on wordplay, then this is a book you will enjoy. No side-splitters, just a series of humorous phrases. |
