OOOO Pab…a DOUBLE pun. Much more subtle than calling it a Wii phone…but then I guess the sales on that would be …wait for it………………………………………….micro soft!
badaboom
i was once asked if i was using the royal “we” or the editorial “we” during a conversation. my brother interrupted to say “plural” and, when i stopped laughing, i stopped saying “we” instead of “i” too.
I was going to quote Twain, but Dmajor beat me to the punchline.
“The only people that should use the editorial ‘we’ are royalty and people with tapeworm.”
yyyguy (well, yyy not?)
If you were my brother I’d have asked if you had a mouse in your pocket.
I’m also reminded of this old one:
the Lone Ranger and Tonto are surrounded by angry Indians.
“Well, it looks we are really in for it this time.”
“What you mean, ‘We’ white man?”
i was young and foolish at the time. as i said above, i stopped doing that a long time ago. don’t know why i brought it up, it just flashed into my brain when i read the strip.

Lol. Of course my mind jumps to that goofy Nintendo game system (which I own!). Do you have to shake the phone to answer it?

Royal “we” or editorial “we”? You left out the third alternative: tapeworms.
