“You Can’t Spell Punchline Without Pun” — (37 Memes)
Here’s the thing about a good pun: I don’t want to laugh at it. I really don’t.
A pun is, objectively, the lowest form of comedy. It’s a dad in cargo shorts. It’s a groan with a punchline. Every fiber of my being that wants to be cool, aloof, and above it all is screaming at me to keep a straight face.
And yet. Every single time, the pun finds a backdoor into my brain.
It bypasses the “this is dumb and you are better than this” department entirely and goes straight to the ancient, gleeful, three-year-old part that just thinks words sounding similar is the funniest thing in the universe. I lose. I always lose.
So in the interest of full transparency, I’ve collected the memes that recently defeated me. I’m not proud. But I’m not not proud either.
