puns that you had missed

Even if it’s a weekly show, could mean the match they chose to show on that day, or the match they think you should watch on that day as opposed to other matches you could watch elsewhere.

I guess if the three words “of the day” were not used other than in “catch of the day” then it would mean yes, it is a pun. You’ve convinced me, rabbit. I’ll look elsewhere in the city for puns.

Seems like sometimes people make the pun go back in the other direction and say “catch of the day” instead of “match of the day.”

... the title was first used by the BBC for its Wimbledon tennis highlights programme in June 1964

Even if it’s a weekly show, could mean the match they chose to show on that day, or the match they think you should watch on that day as opposed to other matches you could watch elsewhere.

You couldn't watch any other matches when it started, it was the only football highlight show on Saturday nights - and it only showed one match, the match of the day.

You couldn’t go watch a match in person?

OF course, but it was the only place to watch football on TV on Saturday night - in England, that is, they didn't show it in Scotland for years.

In my dialect, "match" and "catch" are near-rhymes at best.

Honey Don't

I mean I figured it out a few decades ago but still.

Now there's a jar I'll reach into.

I had to ask Bing Chat what it was a pun on. Never heard of honey do.

Precisely

I don’t think it’s a pun on the word “honeydew”

I've always heard it as a pun.

Next thing y’all will be telling us is that Dew Drop Inn is not a pun.

Curl Up and Dye Salon

Mötley Crüe: "I'm a live, live wire", which is also "I'm alive, live wire".

What

Do any of you know what a pun is ffs

dew you???

Mötley Crüe = motley crew

lol are you trolling silby

Motörhead: motorhead

lol nm, I can only remember four posts ago on a Friday

My example doesn't make sense unless you rhyme "live" with "jive", not with "give".

'cause I'm a live ... Liv Tyler!

pun-ditry itt is pun-ishing

reading this thread is a lot of pun

A thread filled with PUN, that’s what I love

Tragic Kingdom 🤦‍♂️

slay tracks

Not a pun, but I saw Night at the Museum for the first time, and just realized the title is not supposed to mean “A Night at the Museum” (it takes place over three nights!) and is instead “Nighttime at the Museum”

i.e., it is not the story of one eventful night at the museum but instead an exploration of what happens to the museum at night

It has only just dawned on me that the Oyster card used to travel around London is named for the idiom 'the world is your oyster'. I am a doofus.

Also I guess that it has two halves and a hinge - I don't think of either as a pun though.

In Hong Kong it's called an Octopus card.

The world is your octopus

puns that you had missed

Yeah, definitely not a pun. Should have gone in the 'things you only just learned' thread.

I.... oh... never mind

Puns that you had miffed

Puns that you had muffed

Dark Knight.

There really is no pun that I ever got first time around.

Puns that you had whiffed

If it ain’t stiffed, it ain’t worth a pun.
