Hooking up phrases and clauses that balance, like:
Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
He cut loose the sandbags,
But the balloon wouldn't go any higher.
Let's go up to the mountains,
Or down to the sea.
You should always say "thank you",
Or at least say "please".

Hooking up two boxcars and making 'em run right.
Milk and honey, bread and butter, peas and rice.
Hey that's nice!
Dirty but happy, digging and scratching,
Losing your shoe and a button or two.
He's poor but honest, sad but true,
Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
:D

Only if you add a comma and "Wanna Fvck?"

We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind.
'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance, well they're no friends of mine.

Generally, anything that could fit in "Snoopy flew ______ the cloud" is a preposition. That said, "though" is a conjunction or adverb depending on how you use it.

If it is used as a conjunction you need a comma...as with all conjunctions, but if you use it as an adverb there is no comma.
