So Carolyn finally got me down in the basement to clean up the basement (read: throw out all the crap). I did manage to save a few things, and I wanted to blog a couple of them before I threw them out. Here’s one I found from I believe 1994 (12th grade). It’s a piece of paper ripped out of a notebook that starts out:<\/p>\n
Trampus,<\/p>\n
Fill in the blank with the word you feel is best.<\/p>\n
I wish the court would issue an indicavit, I also want a_________<\/p>\n
and then Trampus wrote in “an affadavit”. This came from a rhyming book we found where one of the pairs listed was affadavit \/ indicavit. We found this especially funny, mostly because we didn’t know what an indicavit was. I bet you don’t either<\/a>.<\/p>\n Anyway, after Trampus wrote the answer to that one, we passed this back and forth, I believe in Shack’s English class. With each one, one person would write the beginning and the other person would write the punch-line. Here they are, just as they are written:<\/p>\n (T) I wish my coffee was decaffinatit.
(D) If I had a valuable painting, I would save it.
(T) You know if I wanted some land, yo I would survey it.
(D) If I had a perilous undertaking, I’d brave it.
(T) If there was a dirt road, yo I’d pave it.
(D) If I had a flag, yo I’d wave it
(T) If I were a cop and one of my other cop friend (sic) gave my dad a $73.22 traffic ticket yo, I’d waive it.
(T) If there was some food I really wanted but couldn’t have it, yo I’d crave it.
(D) If there was something I wanted under my control, yo I’d enslave it.
(T) If I had a really long beard with lice growing in it, yo I’d shave it.
(T) If there was an Alden, yo I’d Dave it. Jeees! (reference to Dave Alden who was a kid in our high school and always said “Jeeeez” long and drawn-out)
(D) If there was a word I know is a word but don’t know what it means, yo stave’s it (this is crossed out apparently by Trampus sheesh not like some of his aren’t just as bad! \ud83d\ude42 )
(T) If I wanted a rapper from Public Enemy, you (sic) I’d Flav’ it
(T) If I was a Jew in the holocaust, yo I’d wear the star of Dave it (sic)
(T) If I lived in a tunnel in a mountain, Yo!, I’d cave it.
(T) If I was one of Donald Duck’s nephews, yo I’d say I quave it (also crossed out)
(D) If someone asked me for something I had given away, I’d say I gave it ………………AWAY!!! (reference to the classic Joe….MAMA jokes prevalent at the time – at least by us)
(T) If my last name was McDaniel, yo I’d Xave<\/a> it!
(D) If I were a Regoarrarr, yo I’d wazoo it (again with the censorship – crossed out. I think it’s wazoo, it’s kind of hard to read)
(D) If I surrounded something with a barbed wire fence, yo I’d enclave it.
(D) If I had an unruly child, yo I’d behave it.
(D) If I were to make a telescopic lense (sic), yo I’d concave it
(D) If I had to bury someone, yo I’d grave it.<\/p>\n
