How to use pronunciation to liven up bland food!
 
Sometimes the things I cook just aren't worth eating. For instance the other
day I made ribs that were really bland.

But to make up for it I told my friends they were 'ribbbbbbs' (in a Southern
drawl). And it seemed to work pretty well. They only threw a few of them
out.

I think today I'll make some bland pudding. But I'll pronounce it 'put-ting'
like the Brits do.

Years ago I knew a man who named his boat 'porcina mare' ("sea pig"). It was
hilarious at the time.

Remember how Michael Jackson used to bring little boys into his bed, but he
insisted that there was nothing sexual, just affectioate? I believed him.
Christopher reminds me of Michael Jackson.

Yeah, but just imagine how exciting it would be to someone with the
mentality of a 5 year old.

The point is that a prolonged b is physically impossible.
