My dad never met a pun he could resist, so he came to mind yesterday morning.I was catching up on the news online when the following thought occurred to me: Most of the students I teach are around age 12 or younger -- which means, at their next birthdays, they might accurately be referred to as quarantine-agers.
Some rites of passage we choose, and others choose us.
There's been a few good puns floating around thanks to COVID-19: quarantainment, quarantinis (martinis imbibed while self-isolating), and now quarantinagers! Thanks for the spot of humor in this weird, weird week.
ReplyDeleteI read something yesterday that described the newborns nine months from now as they age will be known as the quaranteens.
ReplyDeleteThank you for that. I laughed out loud. I don’t want to know what it says about me that I love puns.
ReplyDeleteI definitely think you should try that out on them. Love how your mind works.
ReplyDeleteVery punny! Thank you for making me laugh!
ReplyDeleteHa, oh my. My daughter will be 13 in six days. I think that term will likely stick!
ReplyDeleteGROAN. I love/hate puns & I'm going to remember this one for sure.
