More Info:
  • Note: A "Tom Swifty" is a one-line pun, consisting of two parts. The first part is a short quote, the second part an attribution to "Tom" using either a verb, adverb, or other phrase that relates humorously back to the quote itself. Examples: "I didn't look at all!" Tom peeped. "My parents are called Billy and Nanny, Tom kidded. "What are these berries?" Tom rasped. In this quiz, all the answers are verbs ending in "-ed".
