Lexophilia

Do you know the definintion of Lexophilia?  Sounds naughty doesn’t it. Winking smile  Actually, for those of you who don’t know, it means ‘the love of words’.

Here are a few fun examples…
  • Who on earth dreams these up?
  • Venison for dinner again? Oh deer!
  • How does Moses make tea? Hebrews it.
  • England has no kidney bank, but it does have a Liverpool.
  • I tried to catch some fog, but I mist.
  • They told me I had type-A blood, but it was a typ-o.
  • I changed my iPod's name to Titanic. It's syncing now.
  • Jokes about German sausage are the wurst.
  • I stayed up all night to see where the sun went, and then it dawned on me.
  • When chemists die, they barium.
  • Why were the Indians here first? They had reservations.
  • I didn't like my beard at first. Then it grew on me.
  • Did you hear about the cross-eyed teacher who lost her job because she couldn't control her pupils?
  • When you get a bladder infection, urine trouble.
  • Broken pencils are pointless.
  • What do you call a dinosaur with an extensive vocabulary? A thesaurus.
  • I dropped out of communism class because of lousy Marx.
  • I got a job at a bakery because I kneaded dough.
  • Velcro - what a rip off!
  • Don't worry about old age; it doesn't last.
