A Home For Puns

richardshagrin 🚫

There needs to be a home on SOL for puns. Maybe this "Topic" will do, if pungents decide to post here. So live in Pungary or join nuns in a punnery but make puns. Just go on line and share what you want others to see.

"Puns
Raise eyebrows with these clever puns.
Read up on our best puns ever including our word puns and you'll be punstoppable. (Sorry.)

I have no idea if it's true, but it was in a movie about Abe Lincoln's early life (I think played by Henry Fonda). Lincoln was an attorney questioning a witness.

"What's your name?" Lincoln asks.
"John Cass."
"Do people call you Jack?"
"Some do."
"Then you're a Jack Cass."

If they are going to torture you on a rack, they need to Start rack. (This is supposed to be a pun about startrack except it is star trek.) Punners who can spell probably are magicians.

Online definition:
"punner

pun·​ner | ˈpənə(r)
plural -s
Definition of punner (Entry 1 of 2)
: one that rams, tamps, packs, or consolidates by ramming
specifically : a ramming tool
punner noun (2)
"
plural -s
Definition of punner (Entry 2 of 2)
: PUNSTER"

rhymes with Munster but not Monster. More than you want to know:
"The final Latin root for monster is monstrum, meaning "an omen, supernatural being or object that is an omen or warning of the will of the gods." Monstrum, as it turns out, is derived from monere, "to warn or to advise, particularly in a divine sense," and the same root as money."

Winning the lottery allowed me to pursue my ambition to be the most successful hunter ever.
I travelled the world in search of tropy specimens.My list was down to 6 when I heard rumours
of a beast called an EE, in fact a giant elk believed extinct for thousands of years.
It was rumoured to have an antler rack with a span of 4 metres.
I travelled and travelled all over the world in search.Eventually I focused the rumours to Eire.
Up , down and across I searched eventually narrowing sightings to Munster.
I hit paydirt, there was a small breeding colony there but because they were nearly extinct
there could be no killing, it was catch and release only!
The rules were I had to walk the countryside untill I sighted one and the I needed to creep up on it
and with a mighty heave upend it onto it's back. Because of it's mighty rack it would take it 20 minutes
to get back on it's feet, enough time to take photos as proof.
Months I spent walking the countyside of Munster, I must have walked thousands of miles
but then success I successfully bagged the rarest beast in the world.
I almost crawled into the nearest town,where they took me to St Vincents Health Centre
They had doubts of my sanity, I kept saying "It's a Long Way to Tip a rare EE"

State Puns. (Not all or even most are original with me.)

How much does your laundry weigh? A Washington.

What does Dela wear? Her New Jersey.

Wa is the abbreviation for the State of Washington. Pedestrians out for a stroll pronounce their activity Wa King. Those who pronounce it Wall King are King of the wall. The rest are Kings of Wa.

Iowa means I owe Wa. For pedestrians Wa is King of Iowa. Wa King because Iowa owes Wa. Maybe Wa is just the mortgage holder on Iowa. Dela Ware owns her New Jersey, it is hers.

When the Long Ranger leaves he says Ohio, Silver! He is telling his horse Silver where he wants to go. Both the Lone Ranger and his horse are intelligent. Hi O doesn't mean anything. Ohio tells Silver where to go.

This is probably not a pun but how should we make a nickname for Valentines Day? Christmas is Xmas, even though X rated material does better on SOL than in general public use.

I am pretty sure it would not be helpful to abbreviate Valentines Day as VD. Tines is not very helpful. "A prong or sharp point, such as that on a fork or antler."

There is already a VE day for Victory in Europe, world war two. Maybe S Day for Sweetheart Day.

However it is already an acronym that isn't very appropriate for Valentines Day.

Why Latin teachers are often single.

They decline to love. amo, amas, amat

No wait, that is conjugation. They don't get married, they just conjugate. "Become temporarily united in order to exchange genetic material."

Some Latin teachers are fond of shooting firearms and need to buy a lot of ammunition. They put it on a mat so it is easier to move the load of ammunition around. So when they amass ammo a mat is what they plan. So they can also conjugate to love. But is in the wrong order, it can be hard to remember ammo comes before amass and then a mat. So it becomes harder for them to love.

It has been a while, but every once in a while, maybe a month, I think of a pun that might amuse the forum, or at least help those who respond do better. Some porn stars have piercings, little metal pieces that go through nipples and other body parts. And I wondered how do they make a pier sing? Seattle has a lot of piers, most of them have numbers, like pier 69 where you can get the boat to British Columbia. Not sure why 69 and Canada are linked. SOL is from Canada, but not British Columba. Which is abbreviated BC, so it is fairly old. So it makes a little sense that SOL and stories that include 69 are linked.

That is my pun for today, if you know how to make a pier sing you should say something. Perhaps if you stick a needle in a sensitive part it will sing. Or sting.

The letters M and R have punning utility. I may have mentioned they need a period after the R so that MRE (meals readyto eat, which no one in the armed services thinks are) should be pronounced Mr. E (mystery) as the mystery is why anyone wants to eat them.

MR by itself is a form of the verb, to be. Am are, as in I am, you are. And can be understood as a female horse, amare. a mare.

"holy water sprinkler".

"Holy water sprinkler
Another weapon, the holy water sprinkler (from its resemblance to the aspergillum used in the Catholic Mass), was a morning star used by the English army in the sixteenth century and made in series by professional smiths. One such weapon can be found in the Royal Armouries and has an all-steel head with six flanges forming three spikes each, reminiscent of a mace but with a short thick spike of square cross section extending from the top. The wooden shaft is reinforced with four langets and the overall length of the weapon is 74.5 inches (189 cm).[5]

The term holy water sprinkler is also used to describe a type of military flail, this being the name for the weapon in French (goupillon).[6] It was (according to popular legend) the favored weapon of King John of Bohemia, who was blind, and used to simply lay about himself on all sides.[citation needed]"

True, but they were mainly for ceremonial purposes rather than practical use. Most 'maces' without spikes or ridges were basically clubs rather than maces.

The ridges wouldn't have points.

Most did, look at the collection of maces at The Royal Armouries (Leeds, UK)I point them out because they are 'actual' maces made for a specific practical use rather than the stylised props used for decorative means. The whole 'point' of a mace was as an effective weapon against an armoured foe.

@Dominions Son

This is true, but the point was to crush the armor, not (just) penetrate it.

Unless you were on horseback with a long shafted haft for leverage/momentum, then you wouldn't actually do much damage. Most of the concussive blow would be lost on the target simply falling over/taking a step back with the blow. That's why you needed a point or edge to puncture or crease the armour. When you crease armour, you tighten the joins restricting further movement (therefore giving you an advantage)or break the straps holding the armour together,creating a weak spot. Two armoured combatants with plain non-edged maces would simply stand (or sit if on horseback) there and bang away at each other ineffectually till they got tired. A modern day equivalent would be walking up to a shipping container and trying to break through with a 0.5 kg hand hammer, apart from a lot of noise and a sore shoulder/elbow/wrist through shock, you're not going to achieve much until you reverse the hammer so that you use the two prongs normally used to pull nails.

The chances of 'crushing' armour are also fairly slim. Ye olde armour wasn't made to the thin thickness of modern day plate armour used by LARPERS. In order to crush the armour or at least dent it severely to the detriment of the wearer, you need to trap the wearer against something solid and non-giving so the force of your blow was not wasted. Most deaths to knights in armour was caused by them being knocked off their horses and subsequently trampled to death by horses in the melee.

Maces were more effective when used against lightly or non armoured foes, (like bowmen). Even then, a sword was an easier to make and wield weapon, that required a lot less training to use (maces required the user to be methodical and skilled as you had to commit to long swings). Maces only really worked against joints and unprotected faces, whereas a sword/spear could pretty much be used successfully anywhere hence "Stick em, with the pointy end".

I suppose, the only time maces become truly effective, was when they were miniaturised and thrown at people via a long tubey thing...

It's a D&D - Dungeons and Dragons - joke.

A common feature of clerics across many games is that they may not equip pointed weapons such as swords or daggers, and must use blunt weapons such as maces, war-hammers, shields or wand instead.

Medically, an orchiectomy is the removal of one OR two testicles, not necessarily at the same time. An orchidectomy is the removal of both at the same time, is what I'm finding.

The minor detail that the physicians and surgeons that were part of the team that developed the cure for testicular cancer were at IU Medical Center in Indianapolis, and I know WAY too much about it, because I was their test patient #103 and I'm the second longest surviving testicular cancer patient in the world, means I call it orchiectomy.

Diet Coke is lite, so it's less dense, because light doesn't have rest mass.

I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes.

I only eat organic food, because I can't digest inorganic material.

At least 0.8 Franz Ferdinands.

Why do you have to "put your two cents in"... but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going? (taxes)

It's just that my thoughts are worth more than yours.

Once you're in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity?

No, they give you a bathrobe and a harp.

In Valhalla, on the other hand, yes. That's why I intend, if I die, to be buried in my armor.

Trichinosis, probably.

How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?

Putting wheels on luggage requires Plastics, and Plastics has Space Flight as a prereq.

Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up like every two hours?

They don't have kids.

If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?

It's the judge that does the hearing, not the judged. So, yes, unless you have a deaf judge.

Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV?

I'm not.

Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

So they can see down women's shirts.

Why do doctors leave the room while you change??? They're going to see you naked anyway.

They prefer to watch you through the hidden cameras.

Why is "bra" singular and "panties" plural?

Because pants, from which "panties" derive, were originally actually two paired garments, one for each leg, in the same way socks are — they didn't connect at the groin. The gap was covered by the codpiece, which, despite the name, was not made of fish. Single-boob support garments were only common among mythical Amazons.

Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?

For things like bagels, which take more toasting than ordinary bread.

Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane?

Only in a zombie apocalypse.

If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat?

The coconuts aren't big enough.

If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, what is baby oil made from?

Paraffinum liquidum or petrolatum, generally.

If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?

No; morons are the fundamental particle that carries Internet comments. Morels come from spores.

Why do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?

For the same reason there's like nine million songs that use the tune of "Greensleeves".

Why did you just try singing the two songs above?

I didn't; I tried humming "Greensleeves". "Tried" is the operative word here.

Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?

"Aspire to inspire before you expire.

International Pun Contest

The ability to make and understand puns is considered to be the highest level of language development. Here are the 10 first place winners in the International Pun Contest:

1. A vulture boards an airplane, carrying two dead raccoons. The stewardess looks at him and says, "I'm sorry, sir, only one carrion allowed per passenger."

2. Two fish swim into a concrete wall. One turns to the other and says, "Dam!"

3. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, so they lit a fire in the craft. Unsurprisingly, it sank, proving once again that you can't have your kayak and heat it too.

4. Two hydrogen atoms meet. One says, "I've lost my electron."

The other says, "Are you sure?" The first replies "Yes, I'm positive."

5. Did you hear about the Buddhist who refused Novocain during a root canal? His goal: transcend dental medication.

6. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in the lobby

discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. "But why?", they asked, as they moved off.

"Because," he said, "I can't stand chess-nuts boasting in an open foyer."

7. A woman has twins and gives them up for adoption. One of them

goes to a family in Egypt and is named "Ahmal." The other goes to a

family in Spain ; they name him "Juan." Years later, Juan sends a picture of

himself to his birth mother. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her

husband that she wishes she also had a picture of Ahmal. Her husband

responds, "They're twins! If you've seen Juan, you've seen Ahmal."

8. A group of friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise funds. Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the competition was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close. They ignored him. So, the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to "persuade" them to close. Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he'd be back if they didn't close up shop. Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that only

Hugh can prevent florist friars.

9. Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and, with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him (Oh, man, this is so bad, it's Good) a super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.

10. And finally, there was the person who sent ten different puns to friends, with the hope that at least one of the puns would make them laugh. No pun in ten did."

Number 9 may refer to supercalifagilisticexpialidosious even though the sound of it may be quite atrocious.

A future spelling bee champ offers to spell 'Supercalifragilistic' for Mary

Remember when we used to make up the big double-talk words, we could make a big obnoxious word up for the kids and that's where it started. "Obnoxious" is an ugly word so we said "atrocious," that's very British. We started with "atrocious" and then you can sound smart and be precocious. We had "precocious" and "atrocious" and we wanted something super colossal and that's corny, so we took "super" and did double-talk to get "califragilistic" which means nothing, it just came out that way.

Coincidentally, there was also a song called Supercalafajalistickespeealadojus that was written in 1949, and the authors of the song brought a suit against the Sherman brothers for copyright infringement. In the end, the court decided in the Shermans' favor because, among other things, affidavits were produced that claimed that variants of the word were known many years prior to 1949, making the plaintiffs' claim unfounded.

In fact, the earliest known written record of a variant is for supercaliflawjalisticexpialidoshus from an "A-muse-ings" column by Helen Herman in The Syracuse Daily Orange (Syracuse University), March 10, 1931. The columnist muses about her made-up word, describing it as including "all words in the category of something wonderful" and "though rather long and tiring before one reaches its conclusion, ... once you arrive at the end, you have said in one word what it would ordinarily take four paragraphs to explain."

The word supercalifragilisticexpialidocious in Mary Poppins is said to be simply a word used as "something to say when you have nothing to say," but the mouthful of nonsensical syllables certainly has brought cheer to audiences for decades. That cheer has inspired people to use it, like Helen Herman used her word, for things that are extraordinarily good or wonderful.

He crammed a generous chunk of the mix in his mouth and blew a bubble. The bubble rose, rose higher. It was a big beautiful bubble, … a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious bubble.
— Robert Hendrickson, Smithsonian, July 1990

People also began to use a shortened adjective form, supercalifragilistic, as well as the adverbial supercalifragilistically. These forms don't appear often, but when they do, they mean something along the lines of "wonderful" or "amazing,"

If Trump is going to start trade wars and raise tariffs, he should explain how his supercalifragilistic deals will both punish these countries and make goods cheaper for American consumers.
— David Harsanyi, Times Record News (Wichita Falls, Texas), 12 Mar. 2016

For a real good time, just tell your parents to take you to any one of the supercalifragilistically spectacular places listed below.
— Key, 7 Feb. 1987

Finally, what of the claim made in Mary Poppins that saying the word loud enough will cause the speaker to sound precocious? We do not have sufficient evidence to support that conclusion at this time."

There is an author named Uncle Jack.

Uncle Jack's last name is probably "Off".

She offers her honor, he honors her offer. Off her, On her, Offer, Honor. So maybe the last name is Offer.

When I was in ROTC the cadet captain commanding the Pershing Rifles was Captain Bader. When he couldn't tell who made the comment, he was called Master. He disliked being called Master Bader. Uncle Jack Off may be a Master Bader.

'Pho King' is a common name for Vietnamese noodle soup restaurants. Given the proper pronunciation of Pho, you have a cross-language pun. Notably, both are hot and wet and often involve meat.

Similarly, the old but good:

"Balls!" cried the Queen. "If I had to, I'd be King!"
(yes, I had to commit to one spelling or another of to/two, sadly).

Might one say that any king is therefore balking, as otherwise they would be a noble queen?

In a musical, a king might give one a sing-king feeling. Any king with lines in such a show shouldn't be short, as they are tall-king.

Or Spee-king, but that can be highly Graf-ic, if also Admiralible.

And, spee-king of matters oceanic, Triton might claim the throne of the Vatican, as he is the King of the See. Surely no one could claim it would be ungodly of him to try denting the current rule, though it might be highly unpopeular.

2. Then I worked in the woods as a Lumberjack, but just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the axe.

3. After that, I tried being a Tailor, but wasn't suited for it, mainly because it was a sew-sew job.

4. Next, I tried working in a Muffler Factory, but that was too exhausting.

5. Then, tried being a Chef - figured it would add a little spice to my life, but just didn't have the thyme.

6. Next, I attempted being a Deli Worker, but any way I sliced it.... I couldn't cut the mustard.

7. My best job was as a Musician, but eventually found I wasn't noteworthy.

8. I studied a long time to become a Doctor but didn't have any patience.

9. Next, was a job in a Shoe Factory. Tried hard but just didn't fit in.

10. I became a Professional Fisherman but discovered I couldn't live on my net income.

11. Managed to get a good job working for a Pool Maintenance Company, but the work was just too draining.

12. So then I got a job in a Workout Center, but they said I wasn't fit for the job.

13. After many years of trying to find steady work , I finally got a job as a Historian - until I realized there was no future in it.
14. My last job was working in Starbucks, but had to quit because it was always the same old grind.

I understand ff stories involve younger teenagers, not young girls, which use g, and so an ff story has two probably lesbian young ladies having sex. Of course Mff stories have a man in the story and so the ff girls are probably not lesbians.

Anyhow, Ban means prohibit, so Banff probably means stories about girls involved with each other are prohibited. Fortunately SOL is not headquartered in Banff so stories with ff characters are permitted. Although they have to be at least 14 years old. I wonder why Canadians needed to avoid ff stories so thoroughly they named a city after doing so.
