She blamed her morning sickness* on the mildew in her house

Instead of on her gag-inducing dumb fat toxic* spouse.

(Brenda Ware Jones, Jackson, Miss.)

  • First runner-up, winner of the Porky Pooper jelly bean-ejecting pig: [5096-5100] "An eraser's called a 'rubber,' "* wrote the lovely, lissome lass.
  • Her "British English" essay* just ran rings* around the class.

    But hear me, all good Christians,* that poor girl learned all too late

    As a pregnancy* preventer, her eraser wasn't great. (Brendan Beary)

  • And the winner of the Inker:
  • [1365-1368] Cross* your right arm over now!

    Get on your bottom,* mister!

    My mouth's so close, I'll eat* your foot!*

    (Don't freak. We're playing Twister.) (Michelle Stupak, Ellicott City)
