I was treated to a really poor pun on Tuesday, courtesy of David Mitchell and Robert Webb.

There was the one with the secret society bent on ensuring that everyone in the world was mildly drunk. The populous knew them as the Inebriati (a pun on the Illuminati, I presume) but they preferred to call themselves the Knights Tippler.

The worst one, however, was the one where someone discussed the souvenir shop at Auschwitz and the hotdog stand. "It was only a little hotdog stand in the car park. It's not as if there was a drive through with a huge sign saying 'Arbeit macht Fries'."

Any one care to share some other really dire puns with us?

[Dizzy]

That last one was a good one.

As for pun sharing, the best ones seem to happen to me on the fly.
Unfortunately for the reader, it also involves backstory:

Spoiler

A good friend of mine was walking home from a bar one night, and unfortunately for him, he was struck by a vehicle as he tried to cross the street.
One thing led to another and he somehow wound up getting beaten up by the passengers in said vehicle.



They wounded him so badly, that he was picked up by EMS with a broken jaw and a broken cheek.



Thankfully, it just took a bit of re-constructive surgery and a many hospital stays for him to be right as rain.

But while he was there, he was looking for condolences, and we all prayed for him.

However I did accidentally let slip this comment, despite my best interests:



"I'm so sorry this happened to you, {insert name here}. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers; but you'll be out in no time!
Keep your chin up, dude."

I met a man who had been caught in a housefire when I worked at a bar. His burns, on one half of his body, while noticeable, were minimal, and he remarked that while it sucks, it could have been worse.

My response was (unintentionally) "Yeah, you don't look half bad!"

I'm always quick with a pun. They're only really good while on the spot, and I usually don't go to great lengths to remember my own work. XD

Just now on Facebook:


WomanOnMyFriendsList: Okay, here's a spanner in the works. What's the difference between self-centered and selfish?

Me: Selfish comes from the sea.




Bad, I know, but that's what it's all about.

[Sir Deimos]

At least share the picture that was related...

[Twinrova]

Posting it still doesn't make it bursting at the seems.

This seems like all the times that people want to post rants on Facebook and CONSTANTLY say "Your so stupid. Your such a liar."

I get so annoyed I feel like I might split at the seams.

I fucking hate you.










So, the other day my brother and I were discussing Joe Abercrombie's First Law trilogy (which is awesome, by the way), and I commented that I need to get his other book Best Served Cold someday. This started a stupid conversation about what the title could refer to -- Dara suggested revenge salad, I preferred a book about nothing more than gazpacho soup. (C'mon, it'd rock!) He kept trying to push that stupid revenge plot though, so I thought a compromise was in order. Dispatcho soup, anyone?

^Your sig is a pun too isn't it? Walken to Mordor?



Ever since my friend had all the digits amputated from his feet, I find him very annoying.
I think I might be lack-toes intolerant.

I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure...

My friend Max hates going up steep hills.
He's always been a bit of an anti-climb Max

I always wondered why the ball was getting bigger as it came at me..... then it hit me!

Bovine actors should be scene and not herd.

He had won every award and received every possible accolade: he was simply the best scarecrow ever. He truly was out standing in his field

So... Toan's nefarious plans have been revealed to us.

[wisp]

I love bad puns... but there's a fine line between funny bad puns and puns that are just lame. XD

[Showsni]

My thought process: How's that a pun? It's a goldfish in... oh, it's a goldfish in a tank.

So today I was watching some old videos we'd recorded off the TV, and one contained this song. It has a few puns in it.
