I was still in bed this morning, and .....well, it doesn't matter what I was doing.
I had an idea for a new thread of Tom Swifties. For those who are unfamiliar, the Tom Swift books were a series of adventure books in which the author had fun with dialogue.
Tom would speak a line and it would be followed by 'he said' and an adverb (usually an 'ly' word) that punned off the dialogue. Sometimes a verb replaced 'he said' to make the pun.
So all you need to do is "go and do thou likewise"
Here are a few examples, all naughty, although yours can be PG if you wish (see the Wikipedia link for some original examples).
To begin:
"What's your favourite type of lube?" he asked slickly.
