MeyerFittings Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 Couldn't resist sharing this one:. 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 a super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.
Jim Bress Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 pun. the humorous use of a word or phrase so as to emphasize or suggest its different meanings or applications, or the use of words that are alike or nearly alike in sound but different in meaning; a play on words. the word or phrase used in this way.
Rue Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 ...hmm...I find that one a little pundantic...

Addie Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 Q: Why are puns the lowest form of humour? A: They're puny.
Stephen Faulk Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 I think the dirty limerick is the lowest from of humor, but who am I to crowd my way into the gutter.
Stephen Faulk Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 There once was boy from Bengal, 'who's puns were laden with gall, Said a man from Burundi, who refrained puns on Sunday, if his puns were his balls, Kareem Abdul Jabbar would seem small.
palousian Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 ...um, not a limerick... For a lim'rick to follow the plan Only five lines are used, my good man The two in the middle in clear tune like my fiddle, but puns are still king in my land
Roger Hargrave Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 There was an artist who built himself a log cabin. Understandably he built his outside toilet a considerable way off to the east. Unfortunately the wind kept changing direction, so he built another way off to the west. His name was 'Two-loos-long-trek'.
Doug Cotterill Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 I'm going to refrain from joining in the toilet humour this time, Roger. I'm learning, I hope I can do you proud.

For a lim'rick to follow the plan Only five lines are used, my good man The two in the middle in clear tune like my fiddle, but puns are still king in my land I follow the asymmetrical Petrarcan Limerick not the orthodox Shakesperian limerick.
Michael Doran Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 Puns may be the lowest form of humor, but plateaus are the hignest form of flattery. :)oo
CarloBartolini Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 These are worse than "knock-knock" jokes. You deserve the "no-bell" prize.
Stephen Faulk Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 There was an artist who built himself a log cabin. Understandably he built his outside toilet a considerable way off to the east. Unfortunately the wind kept changing direction, so he built another way off to the west. His name was 'Two-loos-long-trek'. There was a board meeting at the Museum of Modern Art. One board member proposed some renovations to the bathrooms of the museum saying he favored having the toilets made of marble. Aonther board member stood up and shouted at him: "This is an outrage! Marble toilets? Why we already have several expensive Jasper Johns!"
Roger Hargrave Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 Jasper John's are my favourits especially those painted with the US flag.

Craig Tucker Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 Ahh, Duchamp, finally something worth discussing...
Craig Tucker Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 Nude Descending a Staircase, one of my very, all time, favorites.
