right.
A while back, myself and a few others decided to hold up the post office. Not in the same way people cashing a giro when they've forgotten their ID hold up the post-office. No, proper burst in, shout a lot, take cash, jump in van, fuck off at high speed.

I was in charge, Baz had to load the bags, Shaun was the getaway driver and we had four others for support.

So, in the back of the van, I dug out some disguises. Father Xmas masks if truth be told. I told Shaun he didn't get one, because if he put one on, he'd only crash into a lamppost because he won't be able to see.

So, I said, "Everyone ready?"

"Six Yule masks on, 'cept Shaun".

Length? Immeasurable.

It is the art of QOTW punnery
The more long and convuluted before the final sentence, the better. Like this.

I love a good pun
Alas, most of the wordplay that crops in qotw is so godawful it makes me want to reach through the monitor and strangle the writer.

This, however, was damn well done.

good attempt...
But 'yule' and the elaborate father xmas shoehorning is not needed seeing as the QOTW is My Sex Misconceptions...


What ?

well...
a bit of artistic licence with the addition of a syllable is acceptible, surely?
