Cinnamon Puns
Customer: “Our daughter is looking for a book called Antonyms and Cinnamons.”
(I type it into our search system, but no dice.)
Me: “Would you know the author’s name?”
Customer: “No, I forget. It was something weird though. She wrote it down, but I forget.”
Me: “Might you mean Antonyms and Synonyms?”
Customer: “Yes! That’s it!”
(I search again.)
Me: “Nothing with that exact title is coming up. Was there more to it?”
Customer: “The author’s name. It was something funny. Sounded like a dinosaur. Wait, I think I might have it here.”
(She searches through her pockets and fishes out a little folded piece of paper.)
Customer: “Here it is. Antonyms and Cinnamons by Theo Saurus!'”
