Jammed Up

Paid Nick a visit the other day.

Nick's brother, Kit, offered to make me a jam sandwich.

He laid the jam on thick. So thick that the sugariness almost stung going down.

I coughed while swallowing the ultra-heavy filling.

Got a feeling like a blocked nose. Distant, dull pain around my left eye.

Had to retire to the bathroom to blow my nose.

Nothing came out.

Blew harder.

Nothing came out.

Blew harder still.

Small tube of jam comes out.

Kit is bewildered, perplexed.

Nick is horrified, disgusted.

Nick says "you've got some fucked up sinuses right there."

"I thought my nose felt jammed-up." I say.

Nick dismisses me as less-than-human.

Why do people hate puns?
