I have discovered a fun new game. You take the word “Shumway” and you splice it into other words. My family and I have played a crude form of the game for years, telling each other to “Shum up” or “Shum it up, you.”
Here are some fun ones:
- Shumday Bloody Shumday
- Shumcle Buck
- Shumrock (for St. Patrick’s Day)
- Shumdog Millionaire (ok, Levi came up with that)
- Shumpelstiltskin
- Crime and Shumishment
- Shumwhere over the rainbow
- Here comes the Shum
- Good Day Shumshine
- Shumse and Shumsibility (not the best, but you knew what I was talking about!)
- Fort Shumter
- The Shum will come out tomorrow (no she won’t)
- Shum and Shummer
- Shumpty Dumpty
- Shumdon Bridge is falling down
- Shumby (that was supposed to be Gumby. I hated him, and this pun is not good. bummer. Or should I say “Shummer”. No. Don’t use my name as a negative interjection.)
- Shummer. (That’s an army-style car.)
- Shum’s the word
- Get thee to a Shummery!
- Band on the Shum
- Shum away Ralph
- Forrest Shump
- Shum of a gun
- Shum of Sam
- Shumdiddlyumptious
- 500 Days of Shummer
So many more! Also, you can just kind of put Shum in front of anything and it sounds cool. I used to call my room the “Shum-Lair.” That was fun!
Anyway, I hope you enjoy trying your hand at ShumPun! All the kids are doing it!
Hysterical!!!!!! Wish I had a last name that would work… Curses
I mean dang shum-it!
Looks like Shumone was having Shum fun! Your house should be the Shum House or something like that…or your car the Shum-mobile! Would your life Bucket List (if you have one) be called the Shumbucket?
