- "These puns are not hip. While they might currently be on the rise, they

- members
- of the common,

- While it may mark me square, I will not run.
- Now, you may not unnerstand me, but I truss that you will be able to
- find a competent journeyman of the One True Trade to explain it to you.
- You may then soffit to me.
- Especially Kitten."
