A Snafu at the Comedy Club:
“So thanks for coming,”
“You’ve been a great crowd today”
..as three folks applaud.
*
A Neighbour Snafu:
“How’s your wife Pippa?”
“That is the name of our dog!”
“Nice weather today!”
*
A Dentist Snafu:
“It’s now been two hours,”
“Get your hands out of my mouth!!”
..the poor intern gasps.
*
An Unromantic Snafu:
🎵 “Why do birds ap-pear
ev-er-y time, you are near?”.. 🎵
then they shat on you! 😠
*
A Doctor Snafu:
“Too many questions!”
“but you are the physician”,
“I pay the big bucks!”
*
Notes: Most of these are inspired by myself or other people I know. The really embarrassing snafus are under lock and key - sorry!
Thanks for reading.

The day I hear someone ask about someone's spouse and use the household pet's name is the day I know I'm living in the right neighborhood.
Haha!! These were great, gave me cause for some giggles!! My favourite was the one with the neighbour being called their dog's name! 😂 Great work Grz!
LOL, how some of these were so easy to identify with! The bird one though...hahaha :) Aww come on, pop that lock and let us in! These were so much fun. Congrats on Top Story and Leaderboard recognition!
Haha! What a great list! The bird one made me lol! Great little collection here, Grz! I've experienced a couple of them! Meant to read them the other day when I was on your profile, but I got into your Wittle Frog story and just kept clicking the links to new stories that I hadn't read. Happy to be back today for some laughs! lol!
I never saw these on my notifications....did you unfriend me dude? These are so great. Frequentlygreatly great. Kudos TS

These are great, but I really want to see what under the lock and key. 🤔🤣
Lol very good!! You got a lot of snafu to share
What a wonderful fun set of Snafu Senryu. I got a big kick out of ".. as three folks applaud." I will forever hear the Karen Carpenter classic with different ears as I wipe the residue off my face!!! 🤪🤩🤣😆
