For example, “what’s the difference
between snowmen and snow women?”
Brian told us JoHoLo and some other
team was making jokes about David Hepting’s full, beautiful beard.
David is a skinny Canadian who is one of the most spiritual men I
know. He is also one of the funniest, especially when he shocks you
by telling one of the many dirty jokes he’s memorized. Groaners (ie
jokes which are so bad they’re good) are his specialty though.
“Snow balls.” (NOTE: my friend told
me he invented this joke, but I now think he was lying to me. I’d
find it strange if it passed all the way to Sasqatchuan, Canada from
Carpinteria, CA).
Lately, he’s been sharing Christian
pick-up lines, too. Here’s my favorite:
“Hi, I’m Will,” says sleezy male
with smooth voice, extending his hand to a female.
“God’s will for your life.”
It’s best if this is said as the female is shaking the sleezy male’s
hand, and the sleezy male holds onto her hand for a little bit too
long.
This one’s good
too:
“First Peter says
to greet each other with a kiss of peace,” says sleezy male to
poor, uncomfortable Christian female. Then, after a few seconds, “Do
you believe in tongues?”
Anyway, David has a
big, brown beard he’s been growing out. The other day, everyone was
sitting around after dinner making beard jokes. First, they were
making the jokes they knew. Then, they took lines from movies and
switched a word for beard. Finally, they just did it with movie
titles. After Brian told us this, we picked up the rules of the game
immediately.
“Beard and Prejudice,”
said Lindsay.
“Nice!
How about Sense and Beardability,”
I said.
“Indiana Jones and the Raiders of
the Lost Beard.”
“Which
is better, Beard Gun or
Top Beard?”
“Top Beard definitely.”
“There was one
that got everyone busting up,” said Brian. “Shoot. What was it?”
“Bravebeard.”
“No,
Beardhart.”
“Beard and Bearder.”
“The Princess Beard.”
“Oh,
I remember,” said Brian, “How Stella Got Her Beard
Back.“
