To many people, "podcast" is a hilarious perfect rhyme for "broadcast."

Comedy metal act Goblin Cock = gobblin' cock, i.e. performing oral sex on a male member (fnarr) of the species. Any species, I guess.

I just spent 15 seconds believing that ptihm just might be the erudite Greek term for a paronomasia one had missed.

Another visual pun I had missed, forgotten about etc.: the ELO spaceship is meant to look like some kind of interstellar jukebox.
― Ask Heavy Manners (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 19 July 2019 19:43 (six years ago)
ELO spaceship always reminded me of this or vice/versa:

i thought the segway scootery-thing was pronounced 'sedge-way'
thus, pun missed

"segue" from one situation to another

Yes, but it's not very convincing is it.

not really, except that they apparently thought the product would totally transform urban transportation

for years I thought the word 'segue' was pronounced 'seeg', so...
― frame casual (dog latin), Monday, 22 July 2019 09:29 (six years ago)
Yeah, that's hardly worth it either. (xp)
Seg-ew, I thought.
― Arthur Lowe & Love (Tom D.), Monday, 22 July 2019 09:30 (six years ago)
As far as I can tell, it's homophonous with Segway (another dumb pun).
― pomenitul, Monday, 22 July 2019 09:32 (six years ago)
I am having a bit of a Monday, but I have no idea how those last three puns (not counting segue/segway) work, except maybe spa is one letter changed from sea?
― Andrew Farrell, Monday, 22 July 2019 09:36 (six years ago)
I also assume it's a play on 'sea'.
As for Roger Adultery, it's mocking Roger Daltrey.

Some googling has revealed that the last verses of "The Farmer in the Dell" go:
The cat takes the ratThe cat takes the ratHi-ho, the derry-o…The cat takes the rat
The rat takes the cheeseThe rat takes the cheeseHi-ho, the derry-o…The rat takes the cheese
The cheese stands aloneThe cheese stands aloneHi-ho, the derry-o…The cheese stands alone
Which is some solid "The folk tune drops away and everyone realises they can't stop chanting"

“T-Bone” Wolk
― Another Fule Clickin’ In Your POLL (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 5 August 2019 19:36 (six years ago)
What's the pun in that?
― Tuomas, Monday, 5 August 2019 19:39 (six years ago)
A play on T-Bone Walker, I presume. That's not really a pun though.
― nickn, Monday, 5 August 2019 20:08 (six years ago)
No, guess not, but didn’t know what other thread to put it on.

I'm waiting for someone to call himself T-Bone Woke.

not so much a pun as a derivation but I just realised that strewth/struth came from "God's truth"
― Non, je ned raggette rien (onimo), Tuesday, 15 October 2019 12:40 (six years ago)
Oh, I've always assumed it comes from "is truth".

God or Christ are usually involved on these occasions.
― Michael Oliver of Penge Wins £5 (Tom D.), Tuesday, 15 October 2019 13:30 (six years ago)
