[in a British accent] OH THEY'RE SO ROYAL. We're lucky to have them coming here. But the rabble undoubtedly will be violent. Scum protesters– Oh, these insane people imagining the helicopters landing and the troops– these insane schizophrenics have come to town. The rabble– I'm so glad– thank God we're elite enough to have them though. I'm so honored. [switches to Cockney accent] Get back there mate! I'll have to have you arrested and have you deported! We're protecting criminals inside, busy stealing our pension funds and overrunning the country with third world populations. Now get back, you Yankee scum! HA HA! To show you the power of the Royal Guard Brigade! And this is the scotch we've been coughing down! Look at that pumpkin-headed Yank! That's the one, Alex Jones! I want you to know, young man, we will be watching you continually while we protect the Transhumanists putting cancer viruses in our children's shots!

Welp, there it is.

Puns are solely responsible for the ruination of our nation.

They are kind of the humor of the lowest common denominator, so Bear has a point.

Actually, I think most scatological jokes and most sexist/racist/xenophobic jokes are generally worse. And there are, of course, some very funny puns. Genuinely funny Auschwitz jokes... well, they are quite rare.

Fuck you, there are some great and classic Auschwitz jokes.

As a mexican, ive always found puns as overwhlmingly retarded... maybe its swooshing over my head, but i dont think there are puns in spanish... i mean, they are possible, of course, but i dont remember a single instance, i suppose punners get rightfully murdered or something... its like a mix between jacking off and a local joke with/towards your own language, i dont know.

what we DO have is double-speak, which i quite enjoy, which can manifest thru "albures" (double entendree, sexual) or simple troll like reinterpretation thru a simple emphasis on a word...

i can provide examples if you people want

Richard Stallman has a collection of puns in Spanish that he invented.
They are all terrible.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

I didn't say there weren't any... this one's a good one. In the right context (cheers, Nige, I looked it up!).

In english at least they seem to be more fluid due to the language being simpler... in spanish they just seem forced and awkward.

I'm conflicted.

On the one hand, I'm all for bringing Western Civilization down around my ears.

On the other....

...hum...

on the... other...
