Since many of you enjoyed the puns last week, I thought I’d send some more to you. The first collection is from Tyrannosaurus Lex: The Marvelous Book of Palindromes, Anagrams, & Other Delightful & Outrageous Wordplay, by Rod L. Evans, Ph.D. The second set is from one of our co-workers. Thanks, Rich!
From Tyrannosaurus:
· If you don’t pay your exorcise, you get repossessed.
· A bicycle can’t stand alone; it is two tired.
· Police were called to a daycare where a three-year-old was resisting a rest.
· A chicken crossing the road: poultry in motion.
· A boiled egg is hard to beat.
· The guy who fell into an upholstery machine was fully recovered.
· Show me a piano falling down a mineshaft, and I’ll show you A-flat miner.
And from Richard:
· A tied piece of cord with a worn end walks into a bar. The bar tender says “We don’t serve cords in this bar and you’re a cord aren’t you?” To which the cord replies, “I’m a frayed knot.”
· I like my pasta the way I like my Italian literature: All Dante.
· Two fish swim into a concrete wall. One turns to the other and says “dam.”
· I have to stop talking to my friends about mitosis since it is such a divisive topic.
· One atom says to the other, “I think I lost an electron.” The other asks, “Are you sure?” To which the other replies, “I’m positive!”
· Why doesn’t Karl Marx drink Earl Grey? Because all proper tea is theft.
· You hear about the band that calls themselves 1023MB? Probably not since they haven’t had any gigs yet.
