Wow... that's one to test if your brain is functional in the morning....

I would say we need to categorize the "time to comprehension" into a tiered system

0-1 seconds : You're just too slick and can probably out-pun Stephen Mercer

1-3 seconds : 1 coffee already down and you're just smart anyways.

3-5 seconds : you are still in la la land and need a "boot to the head"

5+ : go say 'Hi' to Abe Lincoln and Cindy Crawford cuz you're still asleep

for me..... Cindy is working out the kinks in my shoulders.

I can beat that one.

This is actually my Beetle and this is actually my plate. (use Norms "time to comprehension" scale)

It was that or "Y2K BUG" because it is a 2000.

We came up with that over Margaritas one night and still sounded like a good idea the next day.

This must be a US thing because when I was in Canada my kids would call "Punch Buggy, can't call it back". Then of course punch your neighbor in the shoulder. Same idea different call out.

In addition to slug bugs, we also watch for sting stangs (Mustangs) and cruiser bruisers (PT Cruisers). There's alot of hitting going on, needless to say.

Or else "Punch buggy! No punch back!". There must be many variations on the theme.

My son (who was 3 at the time) started calling PT Cruisers 'slugs' because "they kinda look like slug bugs".

So we call slug bugs, slugs, cons, and Ds. 'Con' is convertible. 'D' is Durango, which is what I drive.
