If Two Snakes Marry, What Will Their Towels Say?

Riddle: If two snakes marry, what will their towels say?

Answer: Hiss and hers.

Why this answer works
It’s a pun on “his and hers.” Snakes “hiss,” so swapping his → hiss makes a silly, sibilant twist that fits the snake theme.

Fun fact
In English wordplay, adding an extra s can turn everyday phrases into snake jokes—because the sound of /s/ mimics a hiss.

FAQ
Why is “hiss and hers” the answer?
Because it plays on the phrase “his and hers,” replacing his with the snake sound hiss.

Can the answer just be “his and hers”?
Some versions say that, but the joke lands because of the pun—hiss and hers is the classic punchline.

Is there a deeper meaning?
Nope—pure wordplay. The humor comes from the sound-alike swap that matches the snake theme.
