1. I've noticed a propensity for punning that seems to have lately, surfaced at the Shave Den. In the spirit of things, I've decided to launch a thread entirely devoted to the fine art of the pun. I read that Freud considered punning the lowest form of wit. I don't know about that, but they sure can be fun. So I invite you ladies and gentleman to load up your puns, take aim and fire. You can make up your own or post ready made ones. And..comments, articles, tags, links..anything that has to do with the humble pun. Just to get the ball rolling, here's a few favorites..:D
    *I used to be addicted to soap, but I'm clean now.
    *I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. Then it hit me..
    *Einstein developed a theory about space, and it was about time too..
    *Smaller babies may be delivered by stork but the heavier ones need a crane..
    *I was going to look for my missing watch, but I could never find the time.
    *Sleeping comes so naturally to me, I could do it with my eyes closed..
    *To write with a broken pencil is pointless..
    *A hole has been found in the nudist camp wall. The police are looking into it..
    *Need an ark to save two of every animal? I noah guy.
    *A bicycle can't stand on its own because it is two-tired...
    *I'm reading a book about anti-gravity. It's impossible to put down...

    You might have done better in a hair conditioned barber shop...

  6. I was expecting some of these to look familiar, but no pun in ten did....
  7. Great thread, I love puns!

    A couple of years ago our local newspaper held a pun contest. I was fired up. I love puns and I love coming up with them. I immediately sat down and come up with a half dozen clever puns. With some more thought and effort, I came up with 4 more and mailed them off the next day..

    I was pretty proud of what I came up with and was confident one of my puns would take 1st place, but unfortunately, no pun in ten did.
  8. You stole my thunder!

  13. According to Wikipedia, Shakespeare was reputed to have included more than 3000 puns into his works..Here is an example from Shakespeare's Richard III:
    "Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer by this son of York" (Son/sun)..do you get it..eh..?...

  15. I make puns that are corny, but the ones from my ophthalmologist are cornea.
