“How did the Eskimo build his house?”/“Igloo-d it together.”

“Igloo” can sound like the words “he glue.” A joke was printed in the book The Father Christmas: It’s a Blooming Terrible Joke Book (1994):
 
“Have you heard about the eskimo who found a way to keep the roof on his house? Iglood it.”
 
“How did the Eskimo build his house? Igloo-d it together” was posted on Twitter by Consumer Law Expert on July 19, 2011.
