Puns, Dad Jokes, & assorted serious thoughts.
Goal: Light & fun b/c we need a LOT of that.

All my jokes are original. I personally wrote or stole every one.

I do not shamelessly borrow others' humor. I feel shame, but I lay down until it goes away.

Fortunately, I already figured out the plots of the next several Toy Story films
ΤΟΥ STORY The purpose of a toy is to bring happiness to a child ΤΟΥ STORY 2 Toys must accept that their child will someday outgrow them ΤΟΥ STORY 3 Toys can find new purpose with a new child ΤΟΥ STORY 4 Toys can abandon children, create their own purpose, and pursue relationships with other toys ΤΟΥ STORY 5 Toys can learn how to create new toys without the involvement of a child ΤΟΥ STORY 6 Toys construct a secret, self sustaining society parallel to human civilization ΤΟΥ STORY 7 The great human/toy wars begin THOUSANDS OF YEARS LATER Cars 1-3
