minus-squareahal@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·3 months agoI always thought that joke needs an actual pun in the first half so the “no pun intended” has a valid double meaning. I came up with: I told the sad ghost ten puns to raise its spirits. No pun intendid.
minus-squareClassy@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·3 months agoIt’s word play. No pun intended. “No pun in ten did [win the contest]”
