This week was a little slow on the pun front but those bastards still snuck a few in there. If you are not familiar with the post...check out the first installment from last week. We will be adding to the pun list once per week with the loveliest puns from the previous week. The end of the year will feature a march madness style tourney to see which puns sucks the hardest. As always, if you read or hear a candidate for a decent/awful pun, please leave it in the comments.
6. Lovin' it (1)
Lifted from a McDonald's commercial, you have to respect this. Any time a writer has a chance to go with in' instead of "ing" I say bravo. This goes back to the urban thing we talked about last week.
7. Summer of love (1)
Considering the summer is long over I appreciate the fact that someone found a way to slip this one in there. Bonus points are also awarded for the fact that the the whole tone of the article is a little homoerotic.
* And although not eligible for the pun tourney(because they do not include Love), the puns that I mentioned on Monday deserve a dishonorable mention.
They are - "Looking to Roll" I like this pun because it has nothing to do with the content of the piece other than it is about Michael Roll.
and - "Mbah a Moute moves forward" This pun makes a little too much sense as it deals with the prince changing positions to....wait for it...forward. If it makes sense, I don't hate it, and thus it is not a good pun.
That is it for this week, lets hope for some more pun action in the coming week.
Lets go Bruins.
*Reader Clements found a nice little pun here:
"before righting the Shipp in the second half"
