PRESENT ABSENCE
Dear Pun Gents, a pun for a mom replying to a kid when he complains about only four presents. ~Kate, Atlanta, GA
AS THE PUN GENTS SEE IT:
- Cad’oh! [if you are French]
- Don’t make me box your ears.
- Sorry, that’s a wrap!
- Look who’s stocking now.
- Don’t act Wise Man with me. (Hey, Jesus only got three.)
- Do I detect a note of Presentment?
