Julioteers--Planet Earth chapter

[Lheticus]

Well, I don't know about you all, but I did some major fangirl squeeing when Julio said he has/had a fanclub--and I'm a guy! This is too good an idea to not do on this forum, methinks. So, to join the Julioteers, post below and make a pun like he does! I'll start us off:

A lot of people think there's no such thing as a good pun, but those people really aren't my type.

[rgd20]

You should not pun for gain, remember:

A good pun is it's own reword

[ORione]

Remember to be careful punning around kleptomaniacs. They rarely understand, as they tend to take things literally.

[Gorbad Ironclaw]

{{scrubbed}}

[Asmayus]

Can OP (read quickly) update their original post suggesting new recruits branch out and make less wooden puns?

Thank yew for reading!

:smallcool:

[DiamondHooHaMan]

so to be clear, is it PUNdamentle that we make a joke if we want to join?

[astralmeson]

I believe the growth of such a group could hap-pun if given enough time.

[Ramien]

What would the rules for the Julioteers be? Are there punishments for people who don't follow them? Can someone be punt ed if their puns aren't good enough?

[thereaper]

Even if there is, I sink I'll go down with the ship.

[Goosefeather]

I, uh, I don't mean to boast, but I once actually wrote this entire theatrical piece based entirely around puns.

It was a play on words.

[astralmeson]

On a serious note, would Thog want to join?

"not-nale. not-nale. thog help nail not-nale, not-nale. and thog knot not-nale while nale nail not-nale. nale, not not-nale, now nail not-nale by leaving not-nale, not nale, in jail."

[Coinhunter]

This sounds like pun. Count me in.

[Tiiba]

Punny Mortal!

[Ted The Bug]

I'll stick around and see how this goes.

[sam79]

I think what this club needs is someone to offer running commentary and criticism on the jokes being told; a pundit.

[Icalasari]

Those puns are all elementary. I mean, seriously, the best puns are subtle, like a dagger in the dark. They sublimate, taking time to develop until they are pure

Cookies for whoever picks out the puns in this post

[spongkels]

Tsk tsk, what incorrigible punsters. Please stop incorriging them!

Cooking puns in a vacuum, eh?

[Timix]

I would make a statistics pun, but that would just be mean.

[Ramien]

I would make a statistics pun, but that would just be mean.

I'd rate that pun about average. Perhaps you should try a different mode if you want to get a better score?

[Sunken Valley]

I'd rate that pun about average. Perhaps you should try a different mode if you want to get a better score?

That mode doesn't have enough range. It would be better in its prime though.

[Liliet]

The condition was to make a pun that Julio would like. If I were him, I'd go and club all these punsters just out of mercy.

[Tvtyrant]

I don't fancy being a fanatic, and I will club anyone who calls me one.

[Vedhin]

The condition was to make a pun that Julio would like. If I were him, I'd go and club all these punsters just out of mercy.

Trying to make such a pun is like grasping at threads. Carpeting pun. Or rescue line pun. Or this thread.

[Lheticus]

That mode doesn't have enough range. It would be better in its prime though.

I may not believe that all puns are bad puns, but they do seem to be the median on this thread. I'll have to subtract a lot of you from the Julioteer member roster, and add some more members after so we don't get divided. Then, the fun should multiply and we'll get true power!

[mankekris]

I don't know if I've got what it takes to become a member, although I can be somewhat of a ****

Well, I'm going to plant my feet and grow a spine, so I don't get the boot.

[Liliet]

Was that an attempt at Russian pun, or am I seeing green imps now?

[Flame of Anor]

That mode doesn't have enough range. It would be better in its prime though.

I calculate a high expected value for this thread's humor. Those of you who are at variance with my opinion are nothing but standard deviants.

[konradknox]

It's natural that a bunch of nerds would end up punning about numbers, but I find it irrational.

[Snails]

It's natural that a bunch of nerds would end up punning about numbers, but I find it irrational.

Now, what exactly were the odds they would be rational? I measure it as vanishingly close to zero.

[Vedhin]

Now, what exactly were the odds they would be rational? I measure it as vanishingly close to zero.

There was never a real chance. Such a thing is wholly imaginary.

[Lettuce]

Maybe it's a sine we should stop...

[Ramien]

Maybe it's a sine we should stop...

Now, let's not go off on a tangent here... Se can't just up and stop the puns once they start flowing...

[BobTheDog]

Now, let's not go off on a tangent here... Se can't just up and stop the puns once they start flowing...

Yeah, that could definitely be seen as a faucet pas.

[konradknox]

Yeah, that could definitely be seen as a faucet pas.

Aw come on, that pun was too obviously derivative.

[BobTheDog]

Aw come on, that pun was too obviously derivative.

I don't think that should count as a negative factor.

[Demoman]

I don't think that should count as a negative factor.

I'm positive that it would.

[IthilanorStPete]

These mathematics puns are getting pretty complex. Let's keep it real here.

[Ninja_Grand]

What will all these puns add up to?

But a whole thread of puns? Yes, this is EXACTLY what the internet needs.

[Mordae]

I think these puns all great, upon my ears. Sweet merciful elven gods...

[John_Mandrake]

Now wait just one secant...

[Flame of Anor]

Can John_Mandrake stop the puns? Of cosecant!

[Snails]

Can John_Mandrake stop the puns? Of cosecant!

I guess this section of puns are all hyperbole.

[astralmeson]

I guess this section of puns are all hyperbole.

What is the function of this such an unholy blight?

[konradknox]

Can John_Mandrake stop the puns? Of cosecant!

Oh I'm sure at some point fatique will become a factor.

[JessmanCA]

Oh I'm sure at some point fatique will become a factor.

That does seem logical

[Ramien]

That does seem logical

It's only natural. But we're getting a good base of puns now.

[HeeJay]

This series of math puns is deriving me to the limit of my already fractional sanity.

[Ramien]

This series of math puns is deriving me to the limit of my already fractional sanity.

Well get you integrated into the club yet!

[snowblizz]

These math puns are going to lead to long division and the formation of numerous fractions.
So I'm going to chicken out to Kiev for some lunch.

[Kalrany]

The percentage of people using math puns is quite high -- it appears to be this threads mode-us operandi.

[astralmeson]

Eigenvalue such a conversation about math puns.

[konradknox]

These math puns are going to lead to long division and the formation of numerous fractions.

Make sure the angry Ukranians don't break your legs, or you'll have to learn how to floor function.

[Ramien]

The percentage of people using math puns is quite high -- it appears to be this threads mode-us operandi.

Well, you don't want to range too far afield when punning - better to stick in the current domain as long as possible.

[CrispyCriminal]

Now let's not drain Rich of a proper narrative resorece, this is practically a goldmind of puntential we are digging into.

[IthilanorStPete]

Now let's not drain Rich of a proper narrative resorece, this is practically a goldmind of puntential we are digging into.

So you're saying, don't embolden them?

[JessmanCA]

I think we, as a group, can form a perfectly normal subgroup of Julioteers, an extension if you will, which focuses on puns in the field of mathematics.

[JessmanCA]

The percentage of people using math puns is quite high -- it appears to be this threads mode-us operandi.

That sounds like just an educated Gauss. This thread may show signs of regression in the future.

[konradknox]

So you're saying, don't embolden them?

I think he's saying there's no need to underline our smooth transition from math to text decor topic.

[Ramien]

You are a veritable font of wisdom, sans exaggeration.

Well, let's not capitalize on the obvious.

[Ramien]

Well, let's not capitalize on the obvious.

I suppose you have a point. But sometimes the facts have to be faced.

[Mammal]

Let's not bicker-there's a new serif in town.

[The Fury]

Thank goodness. We've been sans-serif for quite some time!

[JessmanCA]

I hope this is not too bold, but in these times in the new roman empire, wouldn't a trebuchet make more of an impact?

[Flame of Anor]

I hope this is not too bold, but in these times in the new roman empire, wouldn't a trebuchet make more of an impact?

Eh, don't listen to this wingding.

[Lheticus]

When I created this thread, I had no idea it would become this popular, full stop.

[ImperatorV]

These math puns made me laugh so hard, I was afraid I would go into cardiac arrest and half to go to l'hopital. You guys are really on a Rolle. You're like well-Eulered punning machines.

[Mammal]

I'm an English major type, and I'm not getting any of these math puns-it's driving me Wilde.

[Vedhin]

Rielly mann, you need to do some research. You'll zero in on the points. The lines of reasoning aren't that complex.

[Mordae]

I consider myself well-rounded, liking literature and music in addition to math and science. As such, I feel Thoreau serenity no matter into what subject this thread might Faure.

[Giggling Ghast]

These literature puns have me re-Joyce-ing.

[AKA_Bait]

Do they have you Caroling or sewing Oates?

[Snails]

That crack is a Homer.

[Brisingry]

That crack is a Homer.

Oh, this? I say yes. (say it fast if you don't get it :smallbiggrin:)
Puns about ancient texts just make me wish Helen fire on the ones that make it... Hoping that it'll Achilles a good half of the punners. Ah, whatever, it's getting Hect-or-ic around here...

(And this is only the Priam-ble.)

[Mordae]

I wish we'd get Bach to some good music puns.

[Ramien]

I wish we'd get Bach to some good music puns.

You don't like the tone of the conversation? Sheet... I'll make a note of that.

[Lettuce]

I wish we'd get Bach to some good music puns.

You want us to just hip-hop from one genre of puns to the next?

[Mordae]

You don't like the tone of the conversation? Sheet... I'll make a note of that.

You misread the tenor of my comment. It's not like I'm going to pitch a fit. I'll probably just go down a fifth and resolve myself to better punning.

EDIT: *hic*

[Ramien]

EDIT: *hic*

Yes, your comment did throw me a little off bass. Just remember, the staff does try to conduct itself with your pleasure in mind. If there is any treble, please let us know.

[JessmanCA]

It looks like the posters above have got a Handel on it

[Lheticus]

Seeing so many pun lovers come together because of me...it makes me treble with joy! ^_^ Such a wonderful gathering of bass comedic instincts.

[RicB76]

You guys are debasing yourselves with these poor musical puns! I preferred the math ones myself, though I had to put my glasses on to help with division.

[konradknox]

Music or math? Hm, I find myself between rock and a chord place. Perhaps the two can be combined after all.

[Mordae]

Music or math? Hm, I find myself between rock and a chord place. Perhaps the two can be combined after all.

The prospect of such interdisciplinary harmony has me all a-quaver, a delightful counterpoint to so many other threads hereabouts.

[Timix]

Some of these are worse than the periodical chemistry puns I make.

[astralmeson]

I dunno, quasars are pretty far out too.

[Gil-Galad II]

Now, now, this is terrible, folks, we're jumping from maths to music and back again far too quickly. If we don't scale it down soon, the thread will put me into a bad mode.

[Mordae]

We could switch to physiology if you're looking for something in a lighter vein. It always puts me in a humerus mood.

[Ramien]

We could switch to physiology if you're looking for something in a lighter vein. It always puts me in a humerus mood.

Now you're getting to the heart of the matter... But really, shouldn't it be a goal for any member of the Julioteers to be able to sink their teeth into puns on any subject?

[Lheticus]

My, this thread is getting varicose to 100 posts! ^_^

[Mordae]

Now you're getting to the heart of the matter... But really, shouldn't it be a goal for any member of the Julioteers to be able to sink their teeth into puns on any subject?

Too true, but if it heads over to sports then in most cases I'd have to punt.

[AKA_Bait]

If this keeps up, it will be a major artery of discussion!

[Vedhin]

Too true, but if it heads over to sports then in most cases I'd have to punt.

If so, I'd have to chicken out. Most sports puns are a bit fowl.

[Canuck617]

If you don't think you can handle it, you could always just run the option of avoiding it, or if you feel like toeing the line, you could always just backcheck later once people post up to get more ideas. (I left one other pun out about points. Hopefully you can take the points where I did not.)

[konradknox]

If so, I'd have to chicken out. Most sports puns are a bit fowl.

Just because you can't score a good one, does not make them all bad.

[Jolnim]

Time out! Math to Music to Literature to Physiology to Sports? Kant we find a more enlightened subject for out puns?

[AKA_Bait]

I dunno, we need to be careful not to put Descartes before the horse. And if we go too much into this topic the thread might get Locked.

[eaglewingz]

"Stop suppressing our Russell, you egoresistive Nietzsche!"

[konradknox]

Time out! Math to Music to Literature to Physiology to Sports? Kant we find a more enlightened subject for out puns?

I'm sorry, but that agenda doesn't go towards my goal, so I'mma have to pass.

[ImperatorV]

"Stop suppressing our Russell, you egoresistive Nietzsche!"

That's really dense. I think you poisoned some of my brain cells. What's next? Plumbing jokes?

[AKA_Bait]

What's next? Plumbing jokes?

Those would be too draining, so I doubt that there are any in the pipeline. It would take a real snake to keep those flowing.

[eaglewingz]

I'm flush out at the moment, but I'll scour my memory and if any bowl me over I'll be sure to fill you in.

[Snails]

The nethermost end would be to seat if we can rift off of a crack used in OotS tail itself. I am a particular fanny of Elan's, with his plain-spoken cheekiness. Buttocks that could that be backsiding to the bottom. Anybun else want to get behind this base idea?

[Mordae]

I'm unseatlled by your assessment, which I find wholly inappropriate.

[konradknox]

I don't mean to be anal, but those are just indecent.

[Mammal]

Butt out of this discussion, we don't need your moralizing!

[ChowGuy]

As aspirant Juioteers, aren't all these math/literary/sports are missing the point of good sword-play?

:elan: Resist, resist, resist, resist the urge to make a randumb joke!

(Ohm migawd, did I really say that?)

[Lettuce]

Are we going to run the gauntlet of weapon-puns now? I axe you, does anyone really want that?

What we really need is to stop flailing around randomly from topic to topic and elect some officers to whip this thread into shape.

Sai. :smallsigh:

[Mordae]

Well, then I guess I'm just going to draw my bow and make ready to fire off a little ditty at the martial signals.

[BobTheDog]

Well, then I guess I'm just going to draw my bow and make ready to fire off a little ditty at the martial signals.

Don't de-spear, I'm sure people won't bolt to this new topic without hammering the previous ones to submission first.

[Jolnim]

I'll take a stab at any pun-topic that comes down the pike.

[Lettuce]

You guys are getting kind of violent... what kind of club is this, anyway?

[Ramien]

You guys are getting kind of violent... what kind of club is this, anyway?

Obviously it's a fight club. We really shouldn't be talking about it...

That counts as a catch phrase at least, right? I'm running out of puns, but trying to martial my creativity.

[Ramien]

This was a double post, for some reason... but at least I'm getting two puns per round now - guess that means I've specialized somewhere along the way.

[Gorbad Ironclaw]

How about shifting to other types of puns? I used to have a fear of hurdles, but I got over it.

[Lheticus]

Perhaps we should take a pole, but I think vaulting to a new topic is a fine idea.

[Silvos4422]

All these weapon jokes are making me angry, can't we just go back to the literary ones already. ::Shakespeare::

[The Fury]

Track and field puns is it? Sorry to dash your expectations but I'm at a loss, all I can do is stall and give you the run-around!

[Lettuce]

Track and field puns is it? Sorry to dash your expectations but I'm at a loss, all I can do is stall and give you the run-around!

It's okay, it's only a matter of time before they pass the baton to a punning topic you're more comfortable with. :smallsmile:

[Canuck617]

It's okay, it's only a matter of time before they pass the baton to a punning topic you're more comfortable with. :smallsmile:

I think I'll take the lead here and move us over to music, if it pleases the Julioteers.

[snowblizz]

Dunno if that'll strike a chord with the audience. Might drum some people out. Some of us would most likely end up playing second fiddle, which probably wouldn't be very harmonious. But I guess it's time for the musically inclined to bang the drums for once.

[Jolnim]

I think I'll take the lead here and move us over to music, if it pleases the Julioteers.

I'm sure it would please Banjo.

[AKA_Bait]

For once? There has been a chorus posters singing the tired refrain of music puns.

[Canuck617]

For once? There has been a chorus posters singing the tired refrain of music puns.

You're right; everything in modulation, I suppose.

Perhaps we can switch to Art. I personally think we should Picassomewhat different topic to those would lend their ear to it, but most people wouldn't Mona Lisa's much as I would about Art puns.

[Ramien]

Art? We're going to have to have a long, drawn-out conversation about this...

[AKA_Bait]

My impressionist that we only need a quick sketch of the landscape. Indeed, liming the frame of the topic is where the smart Monet lies.

[konradknox]

Art? We're going to have to have a long, drawn-out conversation about this...

Or we could barely brush on the topic and move on.

[Canuck617]

Or we could barely brush on the topic and move on.

Unless you have a better topic, I'll Van Gogh with AKA_Bait on this one.

Frankly, I'd have thought this forum would have a higher saturation of art fanatics.

[Ramien]

Or we could barely brush on the topic and move on.

It depends on how palette-able everyone finds the conversation, really. There is such a broad spectrum of topics avalailable, after all, but some people would rather have one topic as the primary one. Sometimes, you just have to go for Baroque and push ahead, though.

It seems that there aren't Manet people willing to pun on Art, so if there aren't enough new posts, I suggest we don't dilly Dali and instead move on to another topic.

[Jolnim]

... I suggest we don't dilly Dali and instead move on to another topic.

I, for one, would be aghast to discover we are pundead.

[pendell]

Don't worry, I don't think the mods are ready to put a steak through the heart of this thread yet. They'd rather eat the steak. With garlic.


Respectfully,

[The Fury]

Vampire puns suck! Though I admit that its a topic with teeth!

(Lucky I didn't need to make a music pun, I thought I was in Treble there for a moment!)

[nogall]

I, for one, would be aghast to discover we are pundead.

You have no wight to say so, I'm afraid.

[pendell]

Then let us Turn to another topic before a mod Rebukes us into next week.

Respectfully,

Brian P.

[Brisingry]

Moving on would be the ghoul, I guess - I don't have a skeleton of puns left on this topic anyways.

[Ramien]

I'd say beyond the shadow of a doubt that these puns could be better. We're doing ourselves a grave disservice with the current level of work.

[Mordae]

I'm going to head over to zom bistro and get cooking before any pun-hating dweeb rains on my undead culinary parade.

[ChowGuy]

Well I'd have Rodin the art thread, but I couldn't Thinker a thing, and now it's passed on.

[Jolnim]

Well I'd have Rodin the art thread, but I couldn't Thinker a thing, and now it's passed on.

It's not too surreal to reprise any topic from the bowels of the grave. O'course the puns not taken might have have a less frosty reception. The net effect is probably the same, so take a shot.

[pendell]

As far as Undead cooking, Redcloak had the best BBQ wight recipe in the strip. It was so hot, the dude was on fire. In the fireplace.

Respectfully,

Brian P.

[Lheticus]

To turn the subject somewhat to the object of this club, whenever Julio would rescue one of Tarquin's brides, I sus-Spectre gratitude was out of this world.

[Ornithologist]

You should see my Ghoulash.

[konradknox]

What's Xykon's favourite vodka? Stolichnaya.

[Ornithologist]

Look, I don't want to Russian away from the undead puns. I'd much rather Stalin them for a while. There's still a skeleton of them left to say.

[The Fury]

Nope. This Marx the end for the undead puns. We're moving onto Russian and Soviet puns now! Hopefully they will not borscht you!

[konradknox]

Marxist puns need to be considered from several Engels.

[Lheticus]

Hang on, I think I need to go get my Big Brother for this topic. Incidentally, this thread has become a real Animal Farm. Orwell.

[Ornithologist]

I see a brave new world of punning here.

[Mordae]

If you keep on trotting out your deep metaphoric literary references, I'm going to have to trample out the vintage where the Grapes of Wrath are stored.

[Ramien]

Way to keep things Civil, I'll Grant you.

[Vedhin]

Hey, no need to start a war. Let's just have some corn and peace.

[Gorbad Ironclaw]

I'll Remarque that things are no longer at All Quiet here on the Punning Front.

[Ornithologist]

Alice I see is a new wonderland of puns...

[Mordae]

The clock keeps ticking away while I work on my puns, trying somehow to rhyme orange.

[Elanorea]

Orange you glad this thread is finally starting to bear fruit?

[pendell]

Yes, that is berry delightful.

Tongue-in-cheek,

Brian P.

[Canuck617]

Yes, that is berry delightful.

Tongue-in-cheek,

I agree. I couldn't pear to see this thread go away so soon just as it was starting to get juicy.

[Shining Wrath]

If I employ wordplay used by others, will I be punished? If that's the case, I request that you all take it easy on me, because Tarquin it easy is the OotS way. And I ain't Laurin about that.

Or maybe you can have a date with that special someone on The Blorenge.

[Ramien]

Yes, that is berry delightful.

Not that I don't enjoy its fruits, but this thread is getting a bit nutty. I'm a shell of my former self. I'd love to plant the idea of botanical puns, but the coming snow might nix that.

So you say, and I do pine for such things, but I think we should leaf it alone. I'd get into why but I'm bushed.

Joking aside, it's a pun topic I can root for!

A flowery turn of phrase is never out of season.

Tongue-in-cheek,

Shall I compare these puns to a summer's whey? Some of them are curdled.

That was pretty cheesy.

Maybe, but it was still pretty Gouda.

Ah, so you gurt the joke?

[mikeejimbo]

I'd prefer if we cut the cheese jokes. Sorry, that stunk. Truthfully I find them very sharp. I might jack some of them to tell my friend Colby in Monterey.

[AKA_Bait]

I camembert these runny puns! Really, I'm starting to get bleu.

[Jolnim]

Y'all are really churning out the puns!

[mikeejimbo]

Y'all are really churning out the puns!

Now you're just buttering us up.

[AKA_Bait]

Spreading it on pretty thick too. Oil have you know that I'm all for milking this thread.

[Ramien]

Is this really the whey we want this thread to go? Dairy puns aren't always the cream of the crop, after all.

[mikeejimbo]

Aww, don't sour our fun. Punning is practically a cottage industry.

[AKA_Bait]

Ghee, where did yogurt the idea that this was fun?

[Shining Wrath]

Now you're just buttering us up.

How dairy!

[pendell]

Whey else would you participate, if not for fun?

[Lheticus]

Didn't you know? Strawberry Shortcake was descended from Girard Snaketooth, the Familicide got her. V's mistake bore bitter fruit.

His name, sir, is Girard DRAKEtooth. Not that this error spoiled the pun in question--it did, however, sour me udderly.

[Timix]

All of these puns are not legendairy

[pendell]

Maybe, but compared to the hot air in the main discussion thread (15 pages and what are people gassing about, exactly?) the puns are like a cool breeze on a hot summer day.

Respectfully,

[Mordae]

I'll be quite Franck, it's a Bizet time of year and I'm finding it hard to make time for good puns about music and France. I'll do what I Cannes, though.

[Gorbad Ironclaw]

It'll be a good change. The Beatles in particular Lennon themselves well to puns.

Nobody's mentioned the Mechane's composition -- if it contains a particular amount of metal, would that make it a Lead Zeppelin?

Whatever it's composition, its obviously on a stairway to heaven so I'm sure it's not lead else it would be on the highway to hell.

[Shining Wrath]

For those of you wondering why Elan did not attempt to grapple Tarquin and prevent Haley's arm from being broken:

Elan is a no holds bard.

Led Zepplin a Tier 1 band. AC/DC Tier 5, max, on a good day.

I can't allow this thread to be Bumbled ONE post away from 200 replies! I would Bee so sad! :smallfrown:

I'm sorry, I've been busy. What's all the buzz been about? And now I have to fly again.

If it makes you feel better, honey, I've been busy too.

Too bad i'm not familiar with english, since it's not my mother language, so it would be relatively hard for me to join this friendly brotherhood.

[pendell]

I can think of fewer better ways to learn English than to pun-duel. Or insult contests.

For example , if I say "I once owned a dog that was smarter than you!"

You respond with...?

I have UNIX idea what you are talking about now. Id be Lion if i said otherwise. Though there is a brief Windows of opportunity for me to learn.

Are you sure? I think you need a moment of refraction on those principles to see the light.

...Not sure where I just came from. Must be the broken wall everyone's talking about.

I C. Just remember, federal laws clearly state that you cannot go any faster than 300,000,000 m/s.

[Gorbad Ironclaw]

We're accelerating into forces, are we? Just don't put too many Newtons or references to him on this topic, we don't want it moving too fast.

[Lheticus]

Nah, I Fig-ure a Newton could make for a tasty pun discussion topic.

[RickDaily12]

Gosh, looks like the thread just keeps increasing in momentum.

I'm just saying that on an intuitive impulse.

[Ornithologist]

Would you rather we reversed the polarity? It's not like there's much to tractor the conversation back. This thing can be neither stunned or killed.

[Canuck617]

Verily, I am quite pleased at the magnitude of this thread, but I could never accurately predict the direction it would go. Pythagorus would probably concur with me, but the tangents of this thread constantly escape me.

[RickDaily12]

I never cared much for Pythagoras, always saying that every scientific theory needs a strong hypotenuse to test in an experiment.

The other physicists love him. As for me? Our viewpoints were always perpendicular.

[Lheticus]

Indeed, this whole thread has been quite the amazing Trek.

[Canuck617]

Oh, dear; we're entering a new phaser of discussion of which I am not all that familiar.

Rather than Klingon to older topics, I'll defer to those more qualified to pun on this topic.

(And that, ladies and gentlemen is the entirety of my contribution to The Next Generation of puns. Perhaps I shall return later.)

[Shining Wrath]

Alas, we will no longer see Durkon eye a stein of beer. Relatively speaking, he's more likely to light up at the sight of a neck.

[Ornithologist]

At least Durkon can reflect on what he has gained, as well as what he has not. Its like they say: "If you can look at yourself in the morning, then everything will be okay."

Now, Marajuana say something like that? There's no need to dope the conversation with this kind of behavior.

(The preceding puns do not represent my current view on pot, but I just cannot weed out the puns from my brain.)

[Gorbad Ironclaw]

To change th subject, I ought to learn sign language. It's by far the handiest language out there.

I was just making a Key and Peele reference... nobody probably got it though. Ah well.

[RickDaily12]

Let's just throw that topic into the boiling pot. It's probably for the best.

As for the other topic at hands, well, I never signed up for that. I want to though... my excitement about being well versed in multiple languages is almost deafening.

[Gorbad Ironclaw]

I got it. I almost responded with a pun, but it was a crappy pun.

[Ornithologist]

A crappy pun is the best kind. But yeah, I missed the reference. Luckily someone pointed it out for me.

Juneau, I wish I knew what that reference was. Would you be so kind as to provide me a link to Peru's it on my own time. If you can't, Alaskan other person to explain it to me.

(Now giving out internet cookies to anyone who can pun with me on geography!)

[Mordae]

I see Europe to the challenge of geography puns. Isthmus be quite a mountain of knowledge you possession this area of expertise!

[Ornithologist]

I'm China to put a pun together, but Instead I will have to turkey out on this one. So I Tibet someone else will have to Athens on the discussion.

:smallcool:

[mikeejimbo]

Well that Athens pun does grease the wheels of the conversation. Spartan my ignorance on the matter as I haven't Romed very far.

[Lheticus]

Not that I'd feel E-gypt considering how well this thread has already done, but I'm glad the sands of its time don't seem to have run out yet.

[Ramien]

Well, it's good to know that we as a group have the necessary latitude to encompass such a wide range of puns.

[Ornithologist]

Its a sin of the boards that punning is our domain. Cos, otherwise, we'd just be tangential way to much. I mean, what other modes of play can we have here?

[Lheticus]

Oh gawd, not more math puns. I'm starting to get to get headaches...ahh! bacus of them all.

[Canuck617]

I did prefer staying in the mountainous range of geography puns, but seeing as how I'm not in Georgia the direction of this thread, I'll remain content with whatever is punned on.

(Also, I promised cookies for those who made geography puns.)

All right, that's enough ppls. I don't want this thread to turn into a cookie clique-er. Honestly, for having so much fun with this thread for so long and keeping it going all this time, you guys ALL really take the cake in my book--and that's no lie.

Look, I know you like Geography Puns but the flow of the conversation is hard to steer. If you can Kuwait long enough they will happen again.

[Ramien]

Look, it's plains to see that you were trying to navigate the conversation to math puns. You can't complain when the scales tip against you and the geographical record reasserts itself. So long as this conversation doesn't coast to a stop, we'll make our way back to math puns again, just wait and sea.

[Lettuce]

We've already had a mountain of math puns, so I for one am happy to move on to geography.

I beg to differentiate just a bit. Some of these math puns Canberra-ly be understood by some people.

(Although, I am a fan of these combination math and geography puns. I'd give out more cookies, but that seems to lead to trouble here.)

[Ornithologist]

Wow, its been a long break for us here, huh? Luckily Punning knows no such bounds. Maybe a new topic will get us back in the spirit of things. How about we try some horror themed ones for a bit?
