[Misc] The Lowest Form of Wit

[Moshe Gariani]

I agree, puns really are humour for people without humour. I assume that those that enjoy fish puns on a thread also enjoy comedy such as Mrs. Brown's Boys, Miranda and Joe Pesquale.

To be gratuitously unpleasant seems more of a crime than enjoying a few puns...?

Punning on NSC is for people who enjoy wordplay and don't take themselves too seriously.

Back on topic, apparently they now have some FURensic evidence...

Agree. It's pawful humour

 

[Wrong-Direction]

I hope they find the culprit soon and don't start barking up the wrong tree.

Well! This is a sorry tail.

 

[skipper734]

Is it puns the negative pun Police don't like, or puns about allegedly poisoned dogs. There appears to be a pawsity of evidence either way.

I think it's that they're not funny? To me, the point of a pun is to be spontaneous and witty, took you 37 mins to think of your second one. I can picture the scene in a similar pub conversation....

The OB are making a right old dogs dinner out of this one.

You assume a lot. The second one occurred to me as soon as I had posted the first one. I spent the 37 minutes eating a muffin with Marmite and drinking a cup of tea, wondering why a few harmless puns could create a negative reaction.
Maybe the alleged poisoning of a dog was not treated with the gravitas it deserved ? Fortunately none of the dogs I have owned have been poisoned sadly though I have a couple of friends dogs that have, so I am not without sympathy. Unfortunately a life time of getting into all sorts of scrapes has left me as a big fan of so called gallows humour. Sorry the reply has taken another half hour.

Apparently someone was seen driving away in a Rover

 

[spongy]

Have the police any POINTERS to go on?

I'm sure they'll sniff some out soon enough.....

 

[J_Catlin]

Poisoning dog is really low.... Whoever did it must be ashamed....

 

[jackanada]

These dog puns are repugnant

 

[jackanada]

MI6 are now involved. They think it's connected to the war on terrier.

I heard the Rover had Boxer'd the owners car in? ... Time to pull the Pug on this thread...?

[sydney]

i blame the owner..!!

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

You can't murder a dog! You can kill it but you can't muder it.

This!

I know it's sensational, prize pooch poisoned at the most prestigious show in the world but it's a little odd that the papers are assigning the word 'murder' to the event.

 

[Winker]

Doggone!

Maybe the mods could VET the perpetrators? These people must be HOUNDED out of NSC.

Welcome to NSC.

More work needed on your puns...
