New To Punday?

Pull up a stool, order a spiked PUNch, and get to know some of the regulars. I'm your PUNtender, @improv.

How To Make a Pun

This contest is open to everyone. Here's a handy dandy guide on how to make a pun: Learn to Pun

Rules for the PUN-test:

  • If you hope to win a prize, your pun must be your original work
  • Puns must be relevant to the topic of the week to win a prize, but they can be very loosely related.

Last Week's Punday Monday:

Here is last week's Punday Monday, and all the puns that were eligible to win this week are in the comments!

Hang on to your PUNderwear. The Winners of This Week's PUNday Monday Are...

Rookie of the Week:

@happyme! (and if you haven’t checked out the games on his page, do!

Pocket Choice Awards:

I am of the opinion that there are four responses to creative works one doesn’t like.

  1. Constructive criticism. Help them get better!
  2. Useful review. Help audience members know which of them will like and which won’t like this piece.
  3. Outdo them. Demonstrate to yourself and others what “good” looks like.
  4. Keep it to yourself.

There is, however, only one way to respond to creative work one DOES like.

  1. Send them POCKET.

What pun was your favorite?
@acolucky, though the vote was made in THE WRONG PLACE, I’m not picky unless it’s a close call.

Someone sent you some POCKET tokens. POCKET is an experimental sub-token system which operates on the Steem blockchain. It's like having a custom token without SMT. You can also send some to someone else by just commenting on a post with the following command: pocketsend:number_of_token@recipient_name,memo for example to send 10 tokens to @pocketjs, make a comment starting with: pocketsend:10@pocketjs,This is a gift

I am running Pocket-JS confirmer code.

I had some time to kill, so Fido to the science museum. When I heard there was a lunar Rover there, my ears perked up. But when I got there, I Spot a sign on the door. It was closed! I scratched at the door, but it wouldn’t open. I howled my disappointment. I felt like I was just chasing my tail, going there for no — look, a squirrel!

Hey all :)
Sorry I missed the last few weeks.

I went on vacation and while I was in this small town we decided to go to the local zoo.... I was amazed to see all they had were dogs!!
It was a shit zoo!

We also went up to Alaska and saw some folks feeding their dogs and trying to fatten them up and get ready for winter.... Talk about husky.

While we were in France, we met a nice street vendor from Iran and he only sold apples of all varieties. He was known as the pom Iranian.

Went to Denmark.
Met a lot of Great Danes.

The whole way eating delicious food from around the world.
Non stop chow chow.

Now it's back to work at the labratory. Time to erase the white board and come up with some new labradoodles.

Thanks a lot for the SBI prize! I forgot how to call the bot to see what I've got in total now. I guess I'll search around to see if I can find it.
