HurricaneOfPuns
#65715
This Troper had fun killing mannequins in Call of Duty Black Ops, with a little bit of
Bond One Liner thrown in for good measure.
#65716
"Hey man, keep your chin up." '''BANG!''' "way up."
#65717
"Let me give you a hand," '''BANG!''' "because you clearly don't have one!"
#65718
'''BANG!''' '''BANG!''' "Looks like you've been, disarmed!"
#65719
"Where am I going to shoot this one?" '''BANG!''' "This guy ''nose!''"
#65720
"It looks like you have a" '''SNNIK!''' "...knife in your throat..."
#65721
Addmittedly, I was running out of material by the time I got to that last one.
#65722
This Troper has had whole conversations with a friend consisting of nothing but puns, often built on the last pun stated. Both I and my friend have never lost track of the conversation.
#65723
In This Troper's family, whenever someone makes a pun-related joke, there will often ensue a "pun war", wherein everyone else tries to continue the same conversation, with every single sentence containing at least one pun on the same general subject as the original one. If you repeat a previously-used pun, or can't think of a pun, you're out. Winner is the last one to run out of puns to use. Such pun wars can go on for hours.
#65724
Same here. This Troper's family calls them Tree Wars after the very first one we ever had. Needless to say, it was about trees.
#65725
Was it treemendous?
#65726
Are your families looking to adopt?
#65727
This Troper, in a similar vein, lives to create such hurricanes, much to the chagrin, irritation, and homicidal rage of the people he's in conversation with at the moment.
#65728
''Homicidal rage''? I'd watch my back if I were you. This troper cannot imagine he'd be so foolish if he were a veritable hurricane source.
#65730
One guy displaying his pun skills during a rehearsal quickly developed into a pun war incorporating everything from Hindu deities to Michael Jackson.
#65731
This troper roleplays a character whose entire ''concept'' embodies the PungeonMaster, to such an extension that a good chunk of the members in the Bureau he works for have broken his nose for it. His surname doesn't help: Cyrano.
#65732
This troper was in an IT course with about 12 other people. The two involved in this story was a 6 foot Maori who worked as a bouncer in a pub, and a chick who was the shortest at the collage (around 5'5 or so) A lot of piss-taking was done in the classes, due to it being an Aussie tradition (we fight for our right to call our mate a wanker) but the chick managed to stay out of most of it. Until she got into a minor arguement with the Maori, with me on the sidelines. Cue "Just because this stuff is over your head doesn't mean you have to get upset" and it went downhill from there-
#65733
"I think she's a little bit mad."
#65734
"Yeah, she's got a short temper."
#65735
"You're acting very much beneath yourself."
#65736
Well, that's what she gets for getting underneath the radar the whole time.
#65738
Don't act so high and mighty then.
#65739
This troper's boss emptied a large container of an equally large block of ice. Cue at least a half dozen BatmanAndRobin Mr. Freeze based puns about ice/cold/etc.
#65740
That's only a little
bec. Check out the information page's page history for a ''blizzard'' of cold based puns.
#65741
This troper sees the ability to produce volleys of puns and relating tangents as a highly valued sign of intelligence.
#65742
This troper, while a younger sibling was watching the JimmyNeutron movie, came up with approximately 87 puns regarding eggs. Fortunately, none can be remembered today, due to sheer dreadfulness.
#65743
I dunno, sounds pretty egg-zact to me.
#65744
Shame, I'll bet some of them would have cracked me up.
#65745
I guess they scrambled your brain, huh?
#65746
Stop it, you're only egging him on!
#65747
Ooh, that was egg-gregious.
#65748
This troper's father, an Irish joke spewing man who loves to rattle off puns and jokes with no concern over their quality, somehow without becoming an annoyance to others.
#65749
This troper's brother does Vampire: The Masquerade LARP, so my dad and I like to attack him with vampire puns a lot.
#65750
This tropers history class:
#65751
'''Teacher''': This is the Mayan god of corn, she's really a-'''MAIZE'''-ing.
#65752
'''Student''': Wow, that was really '''corn'''y.
#65753
'''Teacher''': You really have a '''CORN'''ucopia of puns, don't you?
#65754
This troper knew someone who punned so much that he got the nickname the Puninator.
#65755
Go on any facepunch news thread, it usually takes one or two comments, that's the calm before the storm.
#65757
Over at the GunnerkriggCourt forum, any page without new information to discuss has a tendency to slide into this.
#65758
Same for the {{Misfile}} Forums. Once we started using Ash in the middle of words ("I'm gonna kick your ''Ash''", "Don't ''Ash''k me," etc.). The "winner" came up with "''Ash Ash''inate."
#65759
Occured once on the Angels2200 forums when Hansagan finally put some new information up, and ended when one member managed no less than fifteen puns about ''cattle'' in one post.
#65760
This troper held a contest on the Wizards of the Coast forums for silly MagicTheGathering cards. The winner was a card that requires you to fold it in half to activate its effect. -> Me: Your card's innovative mechanic put it above the fold. -> Poster 1: I'm trying not to get too bent out of shape, now that I've seen I've completley missed this contest. -> Poster 2: Awesome! Just when I thought my mind was blank I beat my opponents to a pulp. Okay I'll stop now.
#65761
This tends to happen frequency at this unknown roleplaying/webcomic forum
ThisTroper goes to frequently melts into pun hurricanes, even during serious fights.
#65762
This troper occasionally launches into these out of nowhere, much to the dismay of the other members of his IRC channels or forumites.
#65763
"The front is also part of the engine system, as the ship "bores" through space-time."
#65764
"So I suppose you could say the method of propulsion is rather boring?"
#65765
This troper likes puns, including incredibly lame double entendres, especially when foisted on her characters in roleplayed CrackFic. Such as the retort to an attractive philosophy fanboy "well, you're a ''
cock''ra''tease!''" and a memorable incident with every possible Kiek in de Kök pun possible, one after the other. (It means "peek in the kitchen", fyi, and is a kind of tower.)
#65766
This troper thinks that Frank Castle,
the PUN-isher, should be put in charge of executing those who make crimes against humor with bad plays on words, but is pretty eager to go on the occasional Pun Run...
#65767
This troper had a D&D Eberron game where literally half the things we said were puns. Notable times when our Children of Winter Druid turned into a Bee (''Bee''ware, ''Bee''careful) and when we found the vampire we were hunting's coffin (This is a ''grave'' situtation indeed, This guy'sucks''). You get the idea. Those are just the ones I can still remember.
#65768
This troper is a force to be reckoned with when she gets on a roll. Her friends tried to strangle her at the Geology and Minerals exhibit. (Well, schist happens, we shouldn't take these things for granite anyway.) Then there are the ongoing Fork Joke Wars. And it was probably a mistake to let her into the folk dance class involving a stick dance...
#65769
{{celticfang}} is very good at this, even more so now he's found somebody to help punish the detractors...I mean farmers....(It's an Irish thing. Really!), and have a crack sense of humor at a pirate convention, he has had phone calls consisting of pun wars. This thread [[http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=63665]] consists of him being in one with a whole forum. He's also a master at derailing treads. Including wrecking sewing machines. Sew that's my contribution to the thread.

This Ventrilo conversation: #QUOTE# {{Arilou}}: And because of my handicaps and such I don't really want to travel alone.\\ NotSoBadassLongcoat: Handicaps, like, you're half man, half... wait, where's the other half?\\ {{Arilou}}: My cataracts.\\ NotSoBadassLongcoat: Oh. I don't see a problem with that...\\ NotSoBadassLongcoat: Well, at least it doesn't look that bad at the first sight...\\ {{Arilou}}: *groan*\\ NotSoBadassLongcoat: Oh, how short-sighted of me.
#65771
You should have foresaw this. Looking down on people like that... Are you aware how you made yourself look from his point of view? As if you haven't noticed, "Friendship" consists of more than just 2 "I"s. Reflect on this. I hope you will see the light.
#65772
This troper's Dad loves puns, much to her chagrin. He does 'em so often that he's come to expect to be smacked on the shoulder, and is rather surprised when he isn't.
#65773
This troper was once asked if he got his sense of humor off a Laffy Taffy wrapper.
#65774
For a work-in-progress TroperWOrk (no page yet), I came up with a massive one of these describing the ManipulativeBastard 's massive organ. Said organ is based on the Wanamaker organ, scaled up by 10, including pipes ten feet across. What, you thought I was talking about...
#65775
This troper's habit of storming into conversations with hurricanes of puns occasionally leaves some fair-weather friends thunderously angry - to which I usually respond in lightning time with more puns, which does little to calm the tempest, but leaves people with the same sense of humour as me in the clouds with laughter (sorry, I couldn't resist).
#65776
I wish I could whip up a hurricane of puns like that one, I'd be on cloud nine.
#65777
This troper's family sometimes calls our home "the house of pun." Every so often, and usually around the dinner table, someone will use a pun, someone else will follow up on it, and so on and so forth.
#65778
After witnessing his (ex-)friend breaking a twig off a tree, this troper let loose with: "I'm calling the tree police. Special branch. You'll get a fir trial, but the guilty verdict will be very poplar and they willow not let yew go, even if you ash nicely, and you'll soon be in jail, pine-ing for home. Oak-ay?"
#65779
While playing inFAMOUS, I decided to make many electricity-related puns, including... ->Troper: Good evening, inferior Reapers. My name is Cole, and I'll be your server tonight. Tonight's special? A can of whoop-a. Would you like some frying with that? And, when his brother started snarking his jokes, he said... ->Troper: This may come across as a SHOCK to you, [brother], but I'm actually funny. Especially with my puns.
#65780
This troper plays lotro and someone in her kin was complaining about the giant spiders going after the men and not the deers that just walk past. This troper's answer was this: Well see the deers are very dear to the spiders so they fawn over them. This is because the deers bring in large bucks and in return they get a lot of doe. Troper got hit on the head by a newspaper after that.
#65781
This troper and his friends occasionally engineer Hurricanes with "The pun game". Essentially, someone decides a category, for example vegetables, and everything just sprouts from there
#65783
In a carpenter's workshop, waiting for a table to be fixed. On entering, noticed one guy spray painting some twigs white for a wedding -> "We're branching out into new sidelines" Same guy brings another freshly painted one into the room: -> "Careful, it's sticky, so I'm just going to leaf it there. {{Beat}} Did nobody twig that last one?"
#65784
This troper had her sister (away at college) on speakerphone #QUOTE# '''Mom:''' And I don't want you doing any drugs while you're gone! Drugs are for squares, so be a triangle!\\ Me: Yeah, she's obtuse!\\ Sister: Are you calling me fat?\\ Me: That's not what the word means, silly.\\ Mom: Well, whatever she says, you're a gorgeous triangle.\\ Me: Yeah, she's acute!\\ Mom/Sister: *Groan*
#65785
This troper once played poker with a guy named Hunter. Eventually, after a few hours, one of my best friends showed up, and everyone else begged him to get me to stop with the Hunter puns. #QUOTE#'''Me:''' You know what, my last name is "Wood." Every day, and I mean ''every goddamn day'', I have to put up with either a lame penis joke, or a lame tree joke. Let me have this.

BklynBruzer and others pun up

#65787
A common phenomenon in this troper's RPG group, both in person and on the chat-based [=RPGs=]. Generally features individuals alternately participating and threatening homicidal violence (which once, during a game, became dismayingly less than metaphorical).
#65788
This Troper in real life is notorious for ''constant'' puns, such as "I went on a camping trip today. It was ''intense'' (in tents)". It makes my friends laugh and cry at the same time. And it is ''glorious''.
#65789
This Troper's biology teacher is notorious for both this and dark humor. Normally, he's a fungi, but if it goes too far, it becomes hard to keep lichen the pun-ishment. He also claims to have dated such people as Anna Phase (
Anaphase, a phase of mitosis). In general, this troper's biology class is a punderstorm, actually, with this troper being the second-biggest offender.
#65790
This troper remembers a gathering when her and her friends watched all the Lord of the Rings movies, extended edition. Eventually, we started riffing on them, since they were, while awesome, so, so serious. And then the ents came. #QUOTE#'''This troper:''' You know what crime the ents are guilty of? Trees-on. #QUOTE#'''Friend:''' That's some exquisite treesoning. #QUOTE#'''This troper:''' One more like that and I'll leaf the room. #QUOTE#'''Friend:''' That pun was treemendous. #QUOTE#'''This troper:''' Well, I branched out, twiggy. My bark is worse than my bite.
