Hurricane of Puns | comment |
A sudden, protracted volley of puns. Approach this technique with caution, as viewer nausea (or a lynch mob) may be a side-effect. In a Sitcom, a Hurricane of Puns often appears after one or two characters have done something embarrassing and decide to not talk about it. Naturally, every conversation they have is rife with unintentional puns and Freudian Slips that go unnoticed by others but drive them to sheer panic. On the other hand, sometimes these storms approach from the opposite direction... One person cracks a pun, another feels the urge to one-up it, and so it goes until the ammunition is exhausted and the puns fall silent. Rarely, someone will just rattle off a string of puns for the hell of it. Puns are a dangerous form of comedy, and it takes a good hand to make them into something that won't incite a mass groan of disapproval. Doing this repeatedly is even riskier, as it requires an amazing level of ability to play straight on most television aimed at mature viewers. In anime, the Gag Series is also famous for using the Hurricane of Puns. Japanese comedy is quite fond of puns and malapropisms, because of how certain words and names in the Japanese language can be misquoted or alternatively written. This is one reason why many a Quirky Work don't translate into other languages very well or get treated to a Gag Dub instead. Puns that must be explained usually end up not being funny. (Woolseyism is when it does work out, usually with the dub replacing the jokes with more local ones that are the same in spirit instead of sticking to a literal translation.) This is a subtrope of Rapid-Fire Comedy. Compare Hurricane of Euphemisms. See also Cliché Storm. For a person who loves making puns, see Pungeon Master. Has nothing to do with Tornado Move. Volleying Insults are prone to feature these. |

On Day 2 of Season 4, Limited Life SMP, Martyn gets back on the punning game and variously suggests naming his faction with Scott Smajor, located in a floating island above a coral reef, the "Mean Gills" (chosen in the end), the "H2Bros", "Santa's Little Kelpers" (rejected for being too festive), the "Sons of Beaches", the "Big Buoys", "LGBSea" (both content creators are queer), "the Shelldons", "Beauty and the Beach", and "the Salmen" (explicitly vetoed over a Mythology Gag). | |

Even Othello, for all that it's a deeply gloomy play about jealousy, madness and prejudice, is full of this sort of stuff. Iago tends to be the worst offender, including the whole "'tis a common thing" speech, which gets a whole lot more Married... with Children when you know that 'thing' was a semi-vulgar slang term for vagina. The film version with Kenneth Branagh just ups the ridiculousness, with a pun about trifles (again genital-related) that's punctuated by Branagh's face suddenly appearing in close-up as he bellows "A TRIFLE!". | |

Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics): In one comic, sensing that the story was going to turn into a Hurricane of Tree Puns anyway, Sonic decides to stop the comic for a couple of panels just to get them all out of the way, so the reader wouldn't have to sit through any more of them. In issue 233's Off-Panel◊, Antoine tries to prevent one of these from happening before a serious trial by banning all puns based on Stock Legal Phrases (no food "order in the court" jokes, no commenting on the fact two kangaroos are the judges, etc.). Geoffrey then stands on his seat, pointing out that he's on the stand. Cue Antoine's rage. |

Munchkin: Fire arms? They're arms on fire. The Two-Handed Sword is a sword with two hands. They only get worse from here, like the "stoned golem". Super Munchkin (the superhero-themed version) has some of the most groan-worthy monsters released for Munchkin. How about the Punster ("He Punishes you!"), or the Office supplies man ("A staple of comic fiction!" Oh, and he has staples for arms...)? Munchkin Cthulhu has a string of punny derivatives of the Necronomicon, such as the Necrocomicon and the Necrotelecom. The classic Running Gag in Munchkin is "You start out as a Level 1 human with no Class (hehe)." Munchkin Fu got to improve on this, with "You start out with no Class and no Style." |

Sluggy Freelance occasionally indulges in this trope. Though the characters are well aware of how their puns are received, and sometimes use them to deliberately cause pain. And at times Torg just has an uncontrollable slip of the pun. And it's not just the main characters who are guilty of this. Sometimes it's just too much to put into canon. |

Inside Job (2021), "Blue Bloods": At one point, Reptoid identities are shown on screens in the background, and their names are all reptile-themed plays on celebrity names. When a doctor is reading out to Andre all the STIs he caught, almost all of them are playing off of actual STI names, but with a reptile theme. |

DEATH BATTLE!: After the events of Tifa vs Yang Yang won by breaking Tifa's neck the fandom has never stopped making puns about it. This only got worse during the cataclysmic events of RWBY's third season finale Yang had one of her hands cut off, leaving her completely broken. In Joker VS Sweet Tooth, following the Joker's victory over Needles Kane, Boomstick can't resist throwing down some puns. This happens again at the ends of Ben 10 VS Green Lantern, Ganondorf VS Dracula and All Might VS Might Guy. Ben 10 VS Green Lantern Ganondorf VS Dracula All Might VS Might Guy The closing lines of Gaara VS Toph are a classic. Boomstick actually gets heckled by Shao Khan, when he and Wiz are discussing Khan's arrogance often becoming problematic for the character. |

The Phantom Tollbooth was filled with these, many of which the book's intended target audience is unlikely to get—although probably not as many as some adults might think since the children most likely to read and enjoy the book are intellectual-type kids with an appreciation for puns and wordplay. | |

One of these actually saves what could have been another weak jab in the Treehouse of Horror XIX segment "It's the Grand Pumpkin, Milhouse", parodying It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. While making the original religious subtext much more explicit in his defense of his belief in the Great Pumpkin, Milhouse suddenly recites a doctored Apostle's Creed that turns into a nonstop (and hilarious) torrent of vegetable puns: | |

The Simpsons One of these actually saves what could have been another weak jab in the Treehouse of Horror XIX segment "It's the Grand Pumpkin, Milhouse", parodying It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. While making the original religious subtext much more explicit in his defense of his belief in the Great Pumpkin, Milhouse suddenly recites a doctored Apostle's Creed that turns into a nonstop (and hilarious) torrent of vegetable puns: In "Mr. Plow", Homer listens to a couple of Dumbass DJs when driving drunk through a snowstorm. Here's a string from "Ice Cream of Margie (With the Light Blue Hair)", where Homer became an ice cream truck driver: "Our marriage is like soft-serve ice cream. And trust is the hard chocolate shell that keeps it from melting onto our carpet. In cone-clusion, here's the scoop: I love you." In the "Bartman Begins" story from the episode "Revenge is a Dish Best Served Three Times" (2007), The Serpent (Snake Jailbird) makes a string of four snake-related puns while stealing some jewels. Krusty lampshades this ("Puns are lazy writing!") and is shot for his efforts. In "I'm With Cupid", when Apu and Elton John watch Homer fight Skywriter Dan at the airport. |

The entire Deegan family in Dominic Deegan, Oracle For Hire specializes in this (though every character has used puns at some point or another) — even the "black sheep" Jacob can't resist pulling one out every once in a while. Most famous example, however, probably comes from the otherwise Straight Man, Sir Siegfried's, use of his "Knight Vision" to locate two thieves hiding in the dark - by the sound of them GROANING at the pun. There's even an instance where two characters are having a very terse, serious argument, and suddenly their lines start containing electricity references, with neither realizing it. This prompts a nearby lighting mage (called the Maestro because he's "a great conductor") to hit them with a small lightning bolt. There is also an instance after the Storm of Souls arc where Dominic and his girlfriend Luna are making puns about the leg he has lost ("Your words wound me in ways that will never HEEL" and the like), until a loud "OW!" is heard from downstairs, prompting Luna (and in some cases, the reader) to think the puns were getting so bad they physically hurt someone (Turns out, however, that it was Dominic's mom getting zapped). There is also a memorable moment when Donovan is fighting a Frankenstein-like Golem made up of different body parts sewn together and starts cracking tons of quilt/stitch/body part jokes. It turns out the Golem is one of those rare people that actually think his jokes are funny. Let the PUNishment fit the crime. |

In Are You Being Served? In the episode "Mrs. Slocombe Expects", Mr. Rumbold says three terrible puns about cats when Mrs. Slocombe tells him about the possibility of her kittens being born - he says puns like a 'cat-tastrophe' and a 'pussy-bility'. In the episode "The Hero," this is the entire conversation in the canteen as the staff discuss Captain Peacock's "misfortune." To summarize, he quickly became the butt of jokes! |

Puns on the country name (Cameroon lists shrimp), the country's specialty (Chile lists Chilean wines, Japan includes "Hello Kitty, Haikai, Tamagochi, Sudoku, and Wasabi"), Punny Names sometimes based on what the country has (South Korea has "Kim Sam-Sung, Kia, Hy Un-Dai e Kun Gui-Fu") and sometimes not (Slovakia: "Swarowský, Bratislavský, HondaÄ�Ãvik and Robotnik"), it has everything, including phonetic puns that only work in Portuguese (Germany has "Weissfüder", which in English would be something like "Gofükurself"). | |

Spider Robinson loves these, usually devoting large portions of his Callahan's Crosstime Saloon books to punning contests. In fact, Tuesday night is known as Punday night at Callahans - with the winner's tab being on the house. It's gotten so bad, that "Folks who come into the place for the first time on a Tuesday evening have been known to flee screaming into the night, leaving full pitchers of beer behind in their haste to be elsewhere." In one story, "Did You Hear The One About..." we meet Josie Bauer, a "humor groupie", who had taken to going home (and having sex) with whoever won Punday Night or Tall Tale Thursday. She turns out to be a time-cop and arrests a charlatan who claimed to be an Intergalactic Traveling Salesman. She then let it slip that her father was science fiction writer Philip José Farmer, turning the story into the ultimate "Did You Hear The One About The Traveling Salesman And The Farmer's Daughter?" joke. Lady Slings the Booze features a sexual encounter between a prostitute and a private detective described in explicit detail using nothing but courtroom-themed puns. |

The official Naruto is a bit more subtle about its puns, and you won't notice if you don't speak Japanese/know Japanese mythology, but nearly every single name, be it for a place, a jutsu or a person, is a pun on something else. Jiraiya plays this more blatantly, using frog puns whenever he can.note The Japanese word kaeru is the same for "frog", "flip" and "come home". Especially this flashback: | |

Welkin Weasels is loaded down with Shout-Out-based puns. See the dreaded Manless Horsehead of Sleepless Hallow (the ghostly disembodied head of a riderless horse), the bandit known as Batch Cussidy "on account of I'm always using swear words in bunches", the vampiric Nosfuratoo, and a non-Shout-Out sequence of puns in the form of the conversation about guns which leads to Spindrick Sylver's downfall when he goes hunting for the "steam-driven pistol" invented by William Jott. As it turns out, Jott actually invented a form of mining equipment; "Blasting guns with steam-driven pistons - not pistols - which drive a wheel a thousand revolutions - not rounds - a minute." Also, the Who's on First? sequence with Spindrick as The Weasel Who Is Tuesday, and Scirf barely escaping attack by a bear, which doesn't bear thinking about. | |

One of his most impressive is 22 puns about North Korea, but perhaps his crowning achievement was a truly staggering run of fish puns; he actually timed himself and delivered 53 puns in three minutes and 28 seconds, not even counting a handful of repeats. | |

In Dragon Age: Inquisition, the Jaws of Hakkon DLC ends with you passing judgment on Storvacker, which tasks you with bearing the responsibility of what should happen to...well, the bear. You can bear her embearessment or recruit her for a mission that is dubbed Too Grizzly to Bear which can result in a roaring success. The vanilla game allows you to obtain the Wedge of Destiny, which is a cheese wheel that for some reason serves as a pretty powerful shield. Its description consists almost exclusively of cheese puns, and was submitted with notes from the writer to the editors to make sure all of them got through. |

Although there is wordplay throughout Paradise Lost, Satan and Belial have the most impressive example of this when they make a long series of puns about their new cannons, pretending they are talking about negotiation but using terms that also have artillery-related meanings. Perhaps most cringe-worthy is the use of "understand" both in its normal meaning and as if it meant "to stand under..." the ammunition. The bad taste is almost certainly deliberate. | |

The first two Austin Powers movies had Austin spew a volley of these when he dispatched of villains in some gruesome way. This parodied the James Bond movies, where James would always have a nifty Bond One-Liner ready for such occasions. The ending of the second movie does this after Dr. Evil's spaceship escapes, leading random characters to shout a Hurricane of Euphemisms for his... uniquely-shaped ship. It was done in the first movie as well, for a different shape. Eventually, after a suitable length of time had passed, Austin's 'love-interest-du-jour' would end up saying something along the lines of 'Okay, we've given the villain enough time to get away by punning', leading to a general agreement and a quick exit. And again in the third where it even gets lampshaded by Ozzy Osbourne saying they did the exact same joke the previous two movies. Further parodied in that he used the words everyone else was deliberately avoiding ("Boobs!") but in a non-mammalian context. The joke is that they're all out of context. The satellite was shaped like a pair of breasts (Boobs), and Ozzy was bitching about how everyone doing the joke is stupid. |

Cracked: On the cracked.com forums' "Mirth Canal" (where people post funny and interesting links to other sites), almost every new post descended into post after post of puns and dick jokes. The puns aren't as prevalent anymore, but the dick jokes rage on. On the site itself, many articles will have a punny comment that inspires a deluge of replies on the same vein. |

In the KateModern episodes "Drive Goo" and "Arma-goo-den", Charlie, Lee and Julia are given a Creme Egg car and the job of advertising Cadbury Creme Eggs. For some reason, this is the cue for a series of goo-related puns. | |

Starkid's Holy Musical B@man! certainly applies. All of the villains make long strings of puns based on their theme. There's so many of them that they go from puny to just funny. Except for Two-Face. Sweet Tooth takes it to a whole new level with his candy-themed puns. Every time he makes a candy pun, he pulls the type of candy he was referencing out of his jacket. The correct one. Every single time. Without fail. The man makes pun-making into an art. | |

Every Player Character in World of Warcraft is a master punster - See for yourself. Other than making a whole bunch of puns when fighting the player(s) and Thrall, Trade Prince Gallywix's attacks all make puns on business jargon; namely he has a fire DoT attack called "You're Fired", a poison DoT attack called "Toxic Assets", and a debuff called "Downsizing". In comparison the player, while piloting a shredder mech intended for the goblins' sport "footbomb" has attacks with football puns; a melee hit called "Illegal Contact", a ranged fire attack called "Field Goal", and a charge attack called "Blitz". |

This trope was a constant on The Muppet Show, with some sketches simply being an excuse for the puns to fly. Inverted in the Tony Randall episode. Tony had accidentally turned Miss Piggy into a statue, and when everyone found out, an orchestra member had about three pages of jokes. Kermit requests that they be burned, so he lights a match on the Miss Piggy statue. | |

The writers at The Daily Show are unabashed pun-lovers. Example? For Jon' piece of the election debacle in Iran: "Sham-Wow!" They took a moment to demonstrate to newspeople that overusing puns makes you into that friend who describes a nice night at home with the cat as purrrfect. The Onion News Network did a similar piece, with a VT report about legalizing weed featuring more and more strained puns, with the studio anchor responding with a much straighter- yes slightly punny- comment, which goes straight over the head over the reporter. |

Irregular Webcomic! is arguably the worst (or best) offender. If David Morgan-Mar stops managing to do amazing things with horrible puns, it will be a sign of the apocalypse. There's a running gag of Hobbit puns which show up roughly every 100 strips, just so you don't get overloaded on them. Irregular Webcomic Drinking Game: take a sip every time there's a pun. Give up as soon as you're no longer able to read the strips. This will happen within about thirty strips. And the latest forum topic on the subject of elemental mastery. |

The Order of the Stick: This is what allows Elan's prestige class to work. Whenever he's involved in combat, he becomes more powerful if he makes a pun or quick quip before landing a blow. Of course, this can get pretty bad if he starts to run out of puns, as he's not allowed to reuse the puns. It also seems not to work when his enemies are too dumb to get the puns, as he found when fighting trolls. (The big ugly regenerating kind, not the other kind.) This strip, with enough puns about Hinjo's Junk to make Belkar cringe. This strip contains a barrage of puns about The Beatles. Eventually, it makes Vaarsuvius break their avowed role as a support caster because "Protecting my brain constitutes self-defense." And in this strip, Elan's fight with his father turns into a pun-off, with Tarquin combating Elan's fencing puns with offspring puns. Turns out, an opponent can nullify the Dashing Swordsman class's attack bonus with a well-timed counter-pun. Tarquin knows this because it turns out he and Elan's mentor are old rivals. When we see Elan's mentor Julio Scoundrél in action, he gives quite the barrage of truly awful puns. |

Shuji Ikutsuki of Persona 3 performs one of these just for the hell of it in one of the "secret" recordings you can find in FES. In Persona 4 Teddie deals out unBEARably bad puns. Shin Megami Tensei in general, especially when Mara is around, provoking a storm of rapid-fire innuendos due to its form. |

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert: Colbert makes one when calling on all Americans to eat 3 extra pounds of cheese to get rid of the oversupply of cheese made by American dairy farmers: After MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes called Bernie Sanders "Bernie Sandwiches", Stephen went into roughly a solid minute of sandwich puns (starting at 6:50 in the linked video), mentioning eleven sandwiches (in italics), which he actually proceeded to bring out: The first segment on the Steele dossier, needless to say, had very nearly two full minutes of pee jokes, mostly starting at around 2:40. (There are a few additional ones in the video description, specifically "despite the torrent of PEOTUS stories flooding the country" - "PEOTUS", one may note, stands for "president-elect of the United States", but in this case, there's a clear second meaning. There are a few scattered puns elsewhere in the video as well.) |

The dubs of Digimon Adventure and Digimon Adventure 02 played this a bit along with other styles of humor, but occurred less often for Tamers and Frontier. Being that the second-last Big Bad of Adventure was a clown, he was dubbed as one that put the entire rest of the series put together to shame. | |

The Powerpuff Girls (1998) is known for delivering a lot of puns, but they're mostly said by the narrator. In "The Mane Event", Blossom makes a series of hair-related puns while distracting an eye monster with her Gag Haircut. The episode "I See A Funny Cartoon In Your Future", is a Shout-Out to the works of Jay Ward. Consequentially, all the narrator's dialogue and half the plot points are puns. |

Checking the Xavian's storeroom boxes also results in this: If Doris tries to jump out of the launching port, the game warns against it, saying that she might become addicted to jumping. Then, she'll be "chowing down on jumping beans, jumpropes twined around your body and stalking the streets looking for shuttles to jump-start." |

In the early days of Smallville, Clark would crack a joke every now and then, possibly a reference to the comic book fuel of the show.

Power Rangers Mystic Force: There is one episode where the Green Ranger overdoes it with a combination of his earth-based powers and a friend's perfection potion and ends up slowly turning into a tree over the course of the episode. When the other Rangers initially notice this, they feel the need to get out the obligatory greenery-based puns ('leaf him alone', 'knock on wood', etc.) before finally trying to help with the issue. Way back in Power Rangers Zeo, when Rocky was turning into a plant, he made a pass at Kat using plant-based pick-up lines. The Monsters of the Week usually drop puns every few minutes based on their theme (monkey puns for a monkey monster, jail puns for a cage monster, etc). |

In one episode of Three's Company, Jack begs Mr. Furley to not tell his roommates that he saw Jack posing nude for an art class. Mr. Furley agrees but can't resist having fun slipping in as many nudity-related puns as possible into his conversation with the roommates, telling them that he met Jack "in the flesh" and thought after seeing "all" of Jack's art that he had "never seen so much raw talent" and "saw a side of Jack that [he'd] never seen before". | |

Phineas and Ferb: Parodied in "Ain't No Kiddie Ride", as Dr. Doofenshmirtz fights Perry the Platypus with a giant remote-controlled hand: Dr. Doofenshmirtz did it again in "Cheers for Fears", while Perry is hanging upside-down: In "Remains of the Platypus", Buford's assignment is literally to just think up cheese-related puns. Examples include, "Can't get any cheddar than this", "Sounds Gouda to me", "That's Swiss-picious". By the day's end, he's fulfilled his quota of one hundred. |

Gintama utilizes a lot of Japanese puns, some of which are more or less translatable. One notable exception was a mix-up between bank transactions and throwing rice, which was even brought to attention in the official English translation. Similarly, Akazukin Chacha, the main character randomly makes puns whenever she can. This personality trait is the reason why most of her spells tend to fail, she's always thinking of an alternate meaning for the word she just used, such as summoning spiders instead of clouds in the first episode. (In Japanese the words are the same) |

Life SMP: In Season 2, Last Life SMP, the Southlands faction unite when they all got spyglasses and pointed it at each other's faces while going "AHA!" They kept doing this until it comes time to build their base, and Martyn InTheLittleWood, renowned Pungeon Master, lets off a ton of puns around the "aha" sound, to the point where the others contemplate whether it was worth killing him to make it stop. They even make an "Aha Jahar" on Day 2. On Day 2 of Season 4, Limited Life SMP, Martyn gets back on the punning game and variously suggests naming his faction with Scott Smajor, located in a floating island above a coral reef, the "Mean Gills" (chosen in the end), the "H2Bros", "Santa's Little Kelpers" (rejected for being too festive), the "Sons of Beaches", the "Big Buoys", "LGBSea" (both content creators are queer), "the Shelldons", "Beauty and the Beach", and "the Salmen" (explicitly vetoed over a Mythology Gag). Season 5, Secret Life SMP: Day 1 kicks off with Grian and Mumbo Jumbo's assigned tasks being opposite each other, and Mumbo is soon able to complete his task by making one bad pun after another with Grian in relation to their items and the environment, while Grian is unable to complete his task for another while, due to Mumbo laughing at every single one of the puns he makes. After Martyn (yes, him again) is tricked into joining SmallishBeans' "Round Mound" cult on Day 2, they exchange puns of words rhyming with 'mound'. |

Hawkeye of M*A*S*H had a propensity for these. For instance, one episode has him contemplating a Korean family's ox and talking about great ox-related movies ("The Ox-Bow Incident...A Yank at Oxford....The Wizard of Ox...Cow Green Was My Valley...nah, that's cheap.") Sometimes another character, such as B.J., would join him for a little back-and-forth punmanship. One episode has Hawkeye and B.J. rattling off one groaner Shakespeare pun after another - when Major Winchester comments, "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy", Hawkeye mutters, "I can't stand a guy who butchers Shakespeare." Even Winchester gets into it (if not intentionally so) during the heat-wave episode, when he is staying up all night reviewing the Winchester family finances, because the family's accountant has been arrested for, among other things, "countless counts concerning accounts for which he cannot...account". |

The entire episode Mr. Monk and the Genius, in which Monk takes on a grandmaster at chess. Said grandmaster nearly makes one chess pun per sentence.

Characters in Batman: The Animated Series had a habit of using a few either on purpose or unintentionally (probably the producers not realizing). Joker uses several in "The Laughing Fish", Penguin uses one or two in "Almost Got 'Im" and Riddler's episodes are littered with them, to avoid an accidental pun, to the point even characters get annoyed with them. Notably after the pun "Losers ahead" ("Loser's a head"), Batman mutters he's unsure what's worse, the traps or the puns. The entire schtick of the Condiment King is to make awful condiment puns while committing crimes. When Batman confronts him, he utters this hurricane of puns: |

In Season 2, Last Life SMP, the Southlands faction unite when they all got spyglasses and pointed it at each other's faces while going "AHA!" They kept doing this until it comes time to build their base, and Martyn InTheLittleWood, renowned Pungeon Master, lets off a ton of puns around the "aha" sound, to the point where the others contemplate whether it was worth killing him to make it stop. They even make an "Aha Jahar" on Day 2. | |

In the Sir Apropos of Nothing series, Peter David managed to put the trope in map form. Look at the maps in the beginning of each book, and you'll get it. (Example: In the third book, "Tong Lashing", the rivers on the map (in a Japanese-like land) are named "Lai-See", "Crimea", "Olmun", and "Mün".) Angela Thirkell did this back in the 1940s and 50s, in her Barsetshire series: Towns and villages in the Barsetshire district include Fleece, Worsted, Winter Overcotes, and Winter Underclose. The main watercourse in the area is the Rising River. There's more on the endpaper maps if you can find any of the books. |

In another, Zebra introduces his dog, Ike, who he says can point, saw through a block of ice, and jump on a Kurdish man's head. To demonstrate, Pigs says "Ike, aim!" and Ike points. Goat points to a block of ice and says "Ice, saw!" and Ike saws through the ice. Rat points to a Kurdish fellow who appeared nearby and says "Ike, on Kurd!" There's a beat panel where Rat realizes what was just said, and the final panel is Rat standing next to Pastis, holding a shovel, and saying "I come to bury Pastis, not to praise him." | |

Mock the Week Featured in a story about vegetables. Lines such as 'This plan is half-baked!', 'We shall launch a Spud missile' and many others that are forgotten featured. Dara's opening monologue, about a police officer who was caught attempting to join in on a dogging session, would be an example of this being directly scripted, rather than emergent amongst the panel. Dara: "Try not to make a million puns, or any about [David] Blunket being blind.". Cue stream of puns about Blunket being blind, ending with Dara saying he's "lost focus". |

The 4Kids dub of One Piece. Almost unarguably, one of the reasons it was such an appalling failure was the fact that it was essentially a nonstop hurricane of puns. Even with the most serious villains and in the most desperate situations, every time a character spoke, it delivered yet another horrible pun. The worst part and the main deviation from the original as described a couple of entries below was that most of them made no sense. Of course, the character hit the hardest by this almost assuredly Mr. 3. In the Japanese series, he was depicted as somewhat cowardly and weak, but also clever and sneaky enough to accomplish tasks that much stronger characters couldn't manage, such as bringing down two giants. 4Kids showed him only once, having him spend the whole time delivering pathetic jokes for no particular reason. But even in its original glory, One Piece has always had a love of terrible puns, often related to the way words and phrases are written in kanji. One particularly shining example is the fight between Zoro and Kaku in Enies Lobby, where almost every line is a pun on either "giraffe", "nose", or "square". Used in the 7th movie for the clues leading to the end of a prophecy about finding a treasure. Favourably used in the flying fish riders filler arc who continually use the term "formation", in conjunction with other pun words. The catch being that formation in Japanese can sound like "pervert" which Franky thinks is always referring to him. |

In Final Fantasy X a trend started that whenever a character used an attack for the first time in battle they'd use some witty pun related to the attack. Except for Yuna, Auron and Kimahri though. Even more so in Final Fantasy X-2 where the YRP rattle off a load of puns usually in every battle. |

The extended theme for My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, also known as "Horse Puns the TV Show" featured tons of puns here. They included the following; "When danger makes me want to hide, you'll Rainbow Dash to my side, " "Once smitten, twice Fluttershy" "You are the Applejack of my eye." "A heart that shines so beautiful, a Rarity to come by " "You all make fun and laughter as easy as Pinkie Pie!" The series, in general, could be called Horse Puns: The Show. |

The Asterix comics probably have one of the highest pun to panel ratio known to man. Naturally, all translations require intense Woolseyism, which the translators thankfully deliver. Probably the best example comes from the English translation of the very first book, Asterix the Gaul, after a potion causes the Romans' hair and beards to grow uncontrollably: | |

Similarly, Akazukin Chacha, the main character randomly makes puns whenever she can. This personality trait is the reason why most of her spells tend to fail, she's always thinking of an alternate meaning for the word she just used, such as summoning spiders instead of clouds in the first episode.

Beetlejuice: the Animated Series built entire sequences around puns that became somewhat surreal. The lead character successfully performed a short series of tasks, proclaim that he was 'on a roll'... and his feet flew out from under him as a huge buttered roll appeared. Hell, the show could be called "Puns, the Animated Series". You're hard pressed to find a line that isn't punny. Usually, Beetlejuice did this on purpose except for one episode with a situation where BJ's puns became uncontrollable literal metaphors until it was resolved. Example: in this situation, "coming apart at the seams" isn't a good thing to say. | |

In at least two episodes of JAG, a case is presented with a series of puns of varying quality. In "Flight Risk", Lt. Colonel MacKenzie (Catherine Bell) has a case that is used strictly only for the puns and we're not really told whether the case reaches the courtroom, is plead out or is dismissed. Commander Rabb (David James Elliott) and Lt. Roberts (Patrick Labyorteaux) toss out various puns, trying Mac's patience, until Admiral Chegwidden (John M. Jackson) puts a stop to it, though first getting one of his own in. In "Dream Team", Mac's case with the sailor who tried to free some Navy dolphins is an actual courtroom case with guest stars for the defendant, the judge and witnesses. But, like the lobster case, the dolphin case gives Roberts and Rabb an opportunity for a sequence of puns, with Lt. Vukovic (Chris Beetem) joining in at the end instead of Chegwidden. Also, they're sitting at a table in the chow hall this time, and Mac joins in a little. |

The Ace Attorney series has a buttload of these instances, considering how the entirety of the population of Japanifornia (and Khura'in) have Punny Names, the most obvious being Apollo Justice before every case (and sometimes in between): "Here comes Justice!" Moe also has a good amount of puns in his speech in the second game, but it's mostly justified, being that he's a clown. Though it's also partially played straight, as if you really get Moe going during testimony, the judge will punish you for doing it. In Investigations 2, there's a rookie prosecutor who's deluded into thinking he's the best and his name is Sebastian Debeste. Go figure. Uendo Toneiro from Spirit of Justice does this the entire time he's on-screen. Unlike Moe, most of his puns and antics are received positively. |

Pearls Before Swine : In a Running Gag the entire comic is a setup for one of these, immediately followed by Rat berating the author for it. ("Do you think you can tempt me with amenities like anime, Annie Mae, my sea anemone enemy?") Pig is trying to watch Gone with the Wind, but it keeps getting interrupted by a car ad, and the salesman is Chinese, likes the Hoover Dam, and is recovering from a drug problem. The punch line is "Frank Lee's car lot... High? Don't give a dam." The next panel has Rat saying that it's "Frankly, my dear." (And the implication that the author [avatar] knew that, but went for the pun anyway.) In another, Zebra introduces his dog, Ike, who he says can point, saw through a block of ice, and jump on a Kurdish man's head. To demonstrate, Pigs says "Ike, aim!" and Ike points. Goat points to a block of ice and says "Ice, saw!" and Ike saws through the ice. Rat points to a Kurdish fellow who appeared nearby and says "Ike, on Kurd!" There's a beat panel where Rat realizes what was just said, and the final panel is Rat standing next to Pastis, holding a shovel, and saying "I come to bury Pastis, not to praise him." |

There is one episode where the Green Ranger overdoes it with a combination of his earth-based powers and a friend's perfection potion and ends up slowly turning into a tree over the course of the episode. When the other Rangers initially notice this, they feel the need to get out the obligatory greenery-based puns ('leaf him alone', 'knock on wood', etc.) before finally trying to help with the issue. Way back in Power Rangers Zeo, when Rocky was turning into a plant, he made a pass at Kat using plant-based pick-up lines. | |

Pokémon: The Series: The Team Rocket trio has a tendency to launch into these, occasionally to the point of being physically 'pun'-ished by other characters, including themselves. While normally kept to a humorous minimum, this reached extremely irritating levels in the English dub of Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl. The song "Lucky Lucky" is liberally sprinkled with puns using the original Japanese names of at least thirty-three Generation 1 Pokémon.note The linked Articuno is a stub, and indicates that there are Missingno lyrics; if it is ever completed, the number may increase. The German version actually manages to make it WORSE and even more annoying at times, by trying to translate every single English pun into German and even inventing new ones where there were none before, etc. Also, almost every single Pokémon on the list has a Punny Name, often spanning languages. The 4Kids dub had a lot of punny lines ("I'll use my frying pan as a drying pan!") and episode titles (like "Beauty and the Beach" and "Tanks a Lot"). Admittedly, the puns did lessen as the dub went on, but they didn't completely go away.. After TPCI took over, they seemed to be either doing it less or stopping altogether as of Pokémon the Series: Black & White. Samson Oak in Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon loves his Pokémon-related puns. |

The Bolt Chronicles: In "The Coyote," Bolt and Mittens engage in a music-based pun war, though Bolt is the more enthusiastic participant. Composer names, music terms, and musical instrument names are all included. In "The Protection Payment," pigeons Vinny, Joey, and Bobby engage in a string of rear-end based puns when their friend Kelvin gets stuck in a dumpster with just his bottom showing. |

While the average MGM cartoon directed by Tex Avery contained plenty of puns, Symphony in Slang, is practically nothing but puns, as the angels in heaven try vainly to make sense of the life story of a newly-deceased hipster. Examples (with literal interpretations in parentheses): "One day, at the crack of dawn..." (the night sky cracks and then shatters like a window, revealing the sky turning to day) "[Mary] looked mighty pretty with her hair done up in a bun." (Mary's hair is placed between two hamburger buns) "I had a cocktail and Mary had a Moscow Mule." (the narrator's cocktail is a rooster's tailfeathers in a glass and Mary's "Moscow Mule" is an actual mule sitting on a mug with thick Josef Stalin-type eyebrows and mustache) "The proprietor drew a gun on me, but I gave him the slip and hid in the foothills." (the proprietor draws a picture of a gun on the narrator's shirt, the narrator gives the proprietor a slip (as in a lady's undergarment) and then runs into a bunch of hills with pairs of feet sticking out of them upside-down) "I was up against it and felt myself going to pot." (the narrator backs himself up against the word "IT" and his stomach takes on the shape of a pot) "I went down to Joe's Malt Shop where a bunch of the boys were hanging around." (the boys are literally hanging around above the entrance to the malt shop, including one in a noose) "I was feeling mighty blue, and everything looked black." (the sad narrator turns completely blue in color, clothes and all, and then the whole screen turns black except for his eyes) "Why, Mary... Mary had a bunch of little ones." (the narrator notices Mary has become the mother of several crying number 1s) "It was all so funny, that I died laughing!" (Two morticians come in and carry him off while he's laughing.) And twice, he asks if a cat's got someone's tongue. (In both instances, a nearby cat actually has the subject's tongue. Including the ending, where it's an angel cat with St. Peter's tongue.) |

During the supper, they let fly with such a multi-directional hurricane of terrible, terrible puns, that even Ippo - an experienced boxer known for his inhuman toughness - is up against the ropes, desperately searching for any subject - ANYTHING - that will allow him to stop the barrage... Takamura later acknowledges Itagaki's father as the better one when it comes to bad puns, evidenced by him calling Mr. Itagaki "master." | |

Dragon Quest VIII began the trend, and it's been carried on by Dragon Quest IX, the DS remakes of Dragon Quest IV, Dragon Quest V and Dragon Quest VI, as well as Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime.

Empires SMP Season 1: Ocean Tours, being a spoof of the Jungle Cruise of the Disney parks, is a boat tour of various "attractions" around the Ocean Empire and its neighbours. The Shout-Out is complete with the skipper/captain, Lizzie the Ocean Queen, being a Pungeon Master who aims to make copious puns about every single stop; she even skips a stop during the tour because she couldn't think of any puns relating to it. In the musical adaptation, the episode is adapted as the song "Water You Thinking?", with its title being the first hint to the style in which the song is written. | |

The Horror game Don't Rest Your Head is quite fond of giving punny names to monsters. The Paperboys and the Ladies in Hating come to mind. Despite the lame puns, these are incredibly creepy horrors. A sizeable amount of the content in the Don't Rest Your Head supplement Don't Lose Your Mind. Most of the book is devoted to an A to M and a Z to N list of insanity powers, each and every one of which has at least one pun in the "What Are You Becoming" section. The puns are pretty bad, Agony Ant and Yes Man, but the monsters they belong to are incredibly creepy, when not downright scary, plus, since the character is turning into these things, there's an added layer of body horror. It also comes up outside of names for Nightmares. For instance, there's the High School — which is literally high, being housed in the Mad City's tallest buildings — and is a finishing school — in that anyone who ends up there is pretty well finished, either turning into one of the aforementioned Ladies In Hating, or just disappearing. Meanwhile, Mother When has a yardstick which she uses to cut students down to size when they don't measure up. It's creepier in context. |

Drawn Together: Captain Hero, when fighting his giant, mentally retarded son at a petting zoo, uses a sexual entendre for every animal that the giant throws at him, which includes beavers, a donkey, kittens, and a rooster. He specifically makes it obvious with the rooster, proudly exclaiming, "I'll wrap my hands around this cock and squeeze it until it explodes way too early and rolls over and falls asleep...leaving me unsatisfied and alone." Also an example of Metaphorgotten. In the episode where Xander, Clara, and Foxy Love manage to stop Strawberry Shortcake parody Strawberry Sweetcake's genocidal rampage, it leads to this pun-filled moment: |

Pig is trying to watch Gone with the Wind, but it keeps getting interrupted by a car ad, and the salesman is Chinese, likes the Hoover Dam, and is recovering from a drug problem. The punch line is "Frank Lee's car lot... High? Don't give a dam." The next panel has Rat saying that it's "Frankly, my dear." (And the implication that the author [avatar] knew that, but went for the pun anyway.) | |

Frasier: Season 5 Ep 11. Daphne (whom Niles secretly loves) is concerned that if Martin marries Sherry, who's "never liked" her, she may lose her job. Niles has this to say: In a later season, Daphne gives Niles a photo, one he wrongfully assumes to be her nipple. It turns out to be his father Martin's nipple in the picture, and the immediate dialogue from Martin includes considering chicken breast or rack of lamb for dinner, and a comment that the weather is nippy. |

Octopath Traveler: Expect lots of puns when characters begin reclassing and using various elemental attacks with such classics as "Don't play with fire!" (fire) and "Cool off!" (ice). | |

In the Record of Lodoss War TV series omake, they spoof the warrior training that King Kashew gives Parn by replacing it with lessons in how to pun properly. This is the same omake where the wise and level-headed sorcerer is played as a Dirty Old Man, and the skilled and just knight is portrayed as a clueless kid. (Let's not forget the high-elf-turned-ditz.) | |
