Yes, thank you for that information.

Is 'Roland Schitt' a pun?

― Bidh boladh a' mhairbh de 'n láimh fhalaimh (dowd), Tuesday, December 8, 2020 2:00 PM (eight minutes ago) bookmarkflaglink

From the television program Schitt's Creek

which is a pun, to be clear

Schitt's Creek = pun I had not missed
Roland Schitt = pun I had missed

To be clear, it was a genuine question. I don't know if it's a pun or not.

On 'roll in shit' or 'roll and shit'? I guess both would be a bit lame for different reasons.

A roll and shit, like a roll and sausage.

So is the name of US indie band Purling Hiss a spoonerism of Hurling Piss or what?

xp to Dowd oh I definitely think it's there. Roll in shit.

sounds great, no wonder it won all those Emmys

Oh u

Just realized the word 'cube' is (phonetically) contained within the name 'Q-Bert'.

woah

Dick's Wings

Stankonia????!

Wikipedia sez:

In March 1998, André 3000 and Big Boi purchased a studio off Northside Drive in Atlanta which had formerly belonged to R&B singer Bobby Brown. The studio had sentimental value for the duo, as it was the first place the two had ever recorded vocals together, on a remix of TLC's "What About Your Friends" (1992). The two named the studio "Stankonia", a word created by André 3000 as a combination of the words "stank", a slang synonym for "funky", and "Plutonia", the title of a poster in his bedroom depicting a futuristic city. He explained, "Stankonia is this place I imagined where you can open yourself up and be free to express anything".

hmm

yesterday i said to my son “that’ll put some stank on ya” and was like ohhhhhh

it's used with that double meaning in the lyrics at the end of the album

lol "puns you were too faded to have clocked"

Lindley took no notice, went to compete in a rodeo, and was told by the doubtful rodeo manager that there would be "slim pickin's" (i.e. little chance of any prize money) for him.

There's a major fashion franchise here in Australia called Cotton On. It's been around for decades but I only just twigged the other day.

you only just what?

I only just got it!

would you say you... cottoned on?

Indeed I would!

lol

Only just this moment realized that Indiegogo is a play on indigo.

Yeah, I know, I've already scheduled the tests for my brain.

I don't know if it is? why would it be? It's not their brand color or anything

New Power Generation

Like, I only thought of it as the name of a new generation. But power generation is a thing. Maybe it’s even a pun on nuclear power generation.

I had missed the indigo/indiegogo thing too

Purple puns you had missed

Deflatormouse

d'oh!

Ditt'oh!

Omg

!!

Puns that weren't actually there: When I was a kid there was a character on The Tick whose name I was sure was Deflator Mouse. Years later I learned about Die Fledermaus and I was like oh, "Deflator Mouse" from The Tick was a clever pun! Then years after that I was shocked and disappointed to find out his name was actually Die Fledermaus.

Oh, there was I thinking you were all saying it was a pun on Dangermouse.

Thought that for quite a long time as well.

I actually can't believe y'all didn't get that pun.

Yeah I'm an uncultured dullard and even I gottit

Lana Kane from Archer

?

Lana Lane?
Lidocaine?

Lanacane cream for pain

it always killed me that one of the leads in Cool Runnings was "Sanka Coffie"

Isn't Vaguely Threatening CAPTCHAs's point that it isn't a pun? There is no Tick character called "Deflatormouse", it's a mishearing of Die Fledermaus?

I think silby’s post was about ILX user Deflatormouse
