  • This first one is from @msshawn80.

  • Shh! Shh!

  • -You can't handle the tooth. -It never happened.

  • [ Laughter ]

  • This one's from @sarahbeezie. She says...

  • My uncle got so drunk that he was cutting his turkey with the knife handle.

  • [ Laughter ] Oh, there you go.

  • Oh, a lot of blood coming out of the turkey.

  • -It's your hand, Uncle Bill! -My fingers came off!

  • [ Laughter ]

  • -Cutting with the knife handle. -Yeah.

  • Oh, this one's good. This one's from @lachute9.
