My daughter, a regular contributor to, and encourager of, this blog, and definitely a verbally fluent person, was struggling to screw the cap onto a bottle of S. Pellegrino sparkling water. A few inches away from the S. Pellegrino bottle, there was a bottle of Refreshe Raspberry-Acai flavored sparkling water on the table because Claire likes to have some of both waters with dinner.
You'll need to have an image of the dining room table in your mind as you contemplate the following words.

As the cap spun uselessly in her hand, she said: “It's fruitless.”
This seems a little different from the multi-modal puns we discussed a few months ago, since it includes different senses. What do you think?
