Bad puns and tea

“So I tried tea the other day,” says Rissa.

“Really?  How was it?” asks David.

“Bad.”

“How so?”

“Well it held promise – it was cherry something berry something and it smelled delicious, but then it was all BLAH…”

Reading a book, I’m fairly distracticated and don’t hear David’s response.

“See she didn’t even hear that.”

“What did I not hear? ” I ask.

“We were talking about how I tried tea…”

“I heard the tea part.”

“And how the tea tasted like butt…”

“You didn’t say that the tea tasted like butt – I know that for sure.”

“No, but I did say it was very bland and disappointing – given what it smelled like. And then Daddy said… “

David is grinning ridiculously.  “It was TEA-SING you.”

“Oh Jesus,” I say, groaning.

“TEA-SUS,” says David.

I groan again.  “If you had a happy pun dance what would it look like?”

He barely pauses before doing a mashup of the Locomotion combined with the gopher dance from Caddyshack.
