Ooh nice! 2000 is awesome! And I thought 1000 was good! :D

and YESS BAD PUNS HOW'D I FORGET THAT?!? My dad is one of those stereotypical punny dads who just makes up split second puns that are pretty funny (but only to me for some reason) and amazingly bad (my only pun I made up I'm proud of btw: sleeping's so easy I can do it with my eyes closed! Which is also literally my only pun. Except sometimes I'm CelineBurninQuestion when I have, well, a burning question, if that counts... Ik, I'm remarkably unfunny I'll stop talking now) and who grew up reading books FULL of puns (and fantasy! and dragons! wahoo!), like Piers Anthony and Xanth, so I kinda grew up surrounded by puns and love them...

however my mom and brother somehow still don't??

anyways, I think I stumbled on some punny threads you or Peri or someone made once... oh yep here we are yay I saved them! :D
