Creative puns
The roundest knight at King Arthur's round table was Sir Cumference. He acquired his size from too much pi.
I thought I saw an eye doctor on an Alaskan island, but it turned out to be an optical Aleutian. She was only a whiskey maker, but he loved her still. A rubber band pistol was confiscated from algebra class because it was a weapon of math disruption. The butcher backed into the meat grinder and got a little behind in his work. No matter how much you push the envelope, it'll still be stationery. A dog gave birth to puppies near the road and was cited for littering. A grenade thrown into a kitchen in France would result in Linoleum Blownapart. Two silk worms had a race. They ended up in a tie. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana. A hole has been found in the nudist camp wall. The police are looking into it. Atheism is a non-prophet organization. Two hats were hanging on a hat rack in the hallway. One hat said to the other, 'You stay here; I'll go on a head.' I wondered why the baseball kept getting bigger. Then it hit me. A sign on the lawn at a drug rehab center said: 'Keep off the Grass.' A small boy swallowed some coins and was taken to a hospital. When his grandmother telephoned to ask how he was, a nurse said, 'No change yet.' A chicken crossing the road is poultry in motion. The short fortune-teller who escaped from prison was a small medium at large. The G.I. who survived mustard gas and pepper spray is now a seasoned veteran. A backward poet writes inverse. In democracy it's your vote that counts, in feudalism it's your Count that votes. When cannibals ate a missionary, they got a taste of religion. Don't join dangerous cults -- Practice safe sects!

I want ambiguity, or possibly something else.
“Many years ago I had this crazy idea about writing a novel about the Civil War but then suddenly it was all gone with the wind.”
There is only one way to open the door and that is the key. I was going to start an Apathy Anonymous group, but why bother. Cartoonist found dead in home. Details are sketchy. Atheists don't solve exponential equations because they don't believe in higher powers.

There was a sign on the lawn at a drug re-hab center that said 'Keep off the Grass'.
It's not that the man did not know how to juggle, he just didn't have the balls to do it. She had a boyfriend with a wooden leg, but broke it off. A criminal's best asset is his lie ability. The careless pyromaniac made an ash of himself.

I've posted this elsewhere long ago, but it fits nicely here as well:
A man of incredible wealth Refused to lie dead on the shelf So he ground his own ass Into bifocal glass And made a spectacle of himself

Guy walks into a psychiatrist's office, terribly distressed. He says, "Doc, "I keep having these alternating recurring dreams. First I'm a teepee, then I'm a wigwam, then I'm a teepee, and then I'm a wigwam. It's driving me crazy. What's wrong with me?"
The doctor ponders a moment or two, checks a medical journal, nods his head and says, "Just as I thought. Your problem, sir, is that you're two tents." Also: * What's Mary short for? * Umm... She's got no legs? |

ha ha i have a lot fun from you thank you
I share now The Bachelor and his Cat A bachelor who lived at home with his mother and pet cat went on a trip to Europe. Before he left he told his best friend to inform him of any emergencies. A few days after his departure, his cat climbed up on the roof, fell off and was killed. His friend immediately wired him with the message: "Your cat died!" In a few hours he was back home, having cut short his trip in grief and anger at his friend, whom he told "Why didn't you break the news to me gradually? You know how close I was to my cat! You could have sent a message 'Your cat climbed up on the roof today', and the next day you could've written, 'Your cat fell off the roof' and let me down slowly that he died." After a quick memorial service, the bachelor left again to continue his trip. A few days later he returned to his hotel and there was a message waiting for him from his friend. It read, "Your mother climbed up on the roof today." |

After the end of WW II a freed POW gets out of the Army and collects a lot of back pay. He decides to buy his wife a new car, but can't decide what kind to get so he asks some of his Army buddies for advice.
"Why don't you buy a Nash with your cash?" says one. "Get her a Ford so she won't be bored." says another. "Buy her a new Kaiser and surprise 'er!" is another suggestion. "Get her a Frazer and amaze 'er!" is also offered. Finally the GI gets a big grin on his face and says: "I think I'll get her a Tucker!" ... |
