"these are tearable puns"

[ Perhaps it feels like just any other day, at first... The sun is shining and there is-- something on their door? Every bedroom door has a page that's titled "THESE ARE TEARABLE PUNS" and contains ten of the below puns, in random selection (random, since it's up to each player).

Well... actually, no, it's not just the bedrooms; it's the refrigerator, the counter, the library...

These can be found everywhere, because no place is sacred, when it comes to these things. They're trying to go out and enjoy the hot tub? A sheet of paper. Trying to go out and enjoy the roof? A sheet of paper is there...

... waiting for them...

As said above, those who read these will find a page that has ten of the monstronsities below: ]
