It’s Friday, and regular readers of the Kitchen know what that means. It’s time for a little humor! (emphasis on “little”) However instead of exploring the world of puns, I thought we’d hit the bars today, along with the Grammar nazis:

• Past, Present, and Future walked into a bar. It was tense.
• A comma splice walks into a bar, it has a drink and then leaves.
• An intransitive verb walk into a bar. He sits. He drinks. He leaves.
• A dangling modifier walks into a bar. After finishing a drink, the bartender asks it to leave.
• A question mark walks into a bar?
• The bar was walked into by the passive voice.
• Two quotation marks walk into a “bar.”
• A spoonerism balks into a war.
• A gerund and an infinitive walk into a bar, drinking to drink.
• A sentence fragment that walks into a bar.
• A subject and a verb disagrees about which bar to walk into.
• An Oxford comma hops, skips, and jumps into a bar.
• The subjunctive would walk into a bar, were it in the mood.
• A prescriptivist walks into a tavern, because of course ‘bar’ means the counter at which drink is served rather than the establishment itself. He wonders why nobody else is there.

Giving credit where credit is due: Some of these were created by Eric K. Auld.
