Who did the ghost take to the dance?
October 18, 2014Answer: Her boo
This is an alternate version of the Frankenstein's Ghoul Friend pun. We thought of this one while watching Turbo Fast on Netflix. The female snail Burn always calls Turbo's brother Chet her "boo".
Explanation for the kids (and bad puns)
The original term "beau" comes from the French word for beautiful. It was later used as a term for a boyfriend or male admirer. The pronunciation later morphed into sounding like "Boo", something a ghost would say.
