You have to transfer it out of your head! Record yourself singing it and share the video here. It’s the only way.

Look, man, I just wanted to borrow some figs. I didn't know I'd have to jump through all these hoops.
Partial transcript from a spam voicemail that says it's an important alert about my loan from the fig lending verification department.

I hadn't heard that one so I looked it up. Crazy story! But at least it was a nice round number.

My 85 friends who came to IKEA with me: All this shopping is making us hungry! Me: You’re not gonna believe this
Inside IKEA, a big red banner advertises hot dogs, in quantities of 1, 3, 10, 25, or 86.

If there’s one thing we know about Charlie Brown, it’s that he loves coffee and margaritas.

Hello mortals! Here on your Prime world, the land is on fire, the air is full of smoke, there is heat so hot it kills you, the water is too much or not enough, and the food makes your bowels explode. Why did no one tell Xanxost how wonderful this world is??

Greetings from Gen Con mortals! The spellslingers on the beach forgot to announce that they are teaming up with Xanxost to make books about Xanxost! The reason they forgot is they do not know it yet. But Xanxost will show them it is a good idea! Xanxost just needs to get some rocks first.

Hello mortals! It is Gen Con time in your famous city Indianapolisburg! Xanxost will be there to research what mortals are saying about the planes. If you see Xanxost, please come up and say "Hello Xanxost!" Try not to look like food when you do it.

Hello mortals! Did you know the Outer Planes also have a famous story called The Odyssey? It is the story of a man who takes a crew and sets out to travel the entire Great Ring but they go to Limbo first and a red slaad eats them. It is a short story.

There are ways to trim your videogame development budget, and then there are *ways* to trim your videogame development budget.

Elf fingers work best when prepared with surprise. You sneak up to the elf while they are busy thinking about barmy elf things and rip their fingers off. Sometimes the hand or arm comes off too and that is okay. Just keep practicing!

Hello mortals! Xanxost hears there is a Prime Material Plane lettuce that makes your butt explode. Oho! All glory to your graybeards for creating the perfect snack and/or weapon of war. Xanxost is coming with two bags of holding! Do you take elf fingers in trade?

Hello mortals! Xanxost was asked how to stay cool when it is very hot outside. The answer is simple! Dig a big hole and fill it with cold liquid like high elf blood or wood elf blood or dark elf blood or sea elf blood. Then leave it and go on a vacation to the Ice Wastes of the Abyss.

Hello mortals! Xanxost met a new dretch in the Abyss who says his name is Linseed. His new job is licking Juiblex clean and he will be good at it because he did the same thing for a big smelly blob in his mortal life. The lesson is experience counts! Prepare for the afterlife you want!
