Pun Fun

Bev loves a good pun. Whether she’s the giver or the taker, she takes more delight in the word play than the average bear. You can read some of her past puns here, here, and here.

However, Bev’s best pun to date came in a recent conversation on Bev’s group chat with cousins Bessie, Gertrude, and Keith. You see, it’s a long story, but Bev was recently kind of roped into spearheading a fundraiser at work for Syrian refugees. Fearing a complete and utter bust of a fundraiser as far as money goes, Bev called in some family and friends to contribute to the pot. Being the kind, generous, caring people they are, Bev’s family and friends came out in droves. (shoutout to donators, by the way- for reals- expectations: exceeded)

Things were going swimmingly until a few people put something about Syria in the memo of their PayPal and Venmo payments, and now possibly half of my family tree is on the no fly list- including me, as all of their donations were headed my way. During this debacle, Bev was communicating with the cousins on this particular group text about not putting any ‘buzz words’ in their memos, and ol’ cousin Gert just set Bev up for the perfect alley oop, and Bev dunked that pun of a bitch home (HOLY SHIT DO YOU SEE WHAT I DID THERE?)…

 

My work here is pun.

P.S.- I’m not sure if all of the things posted here actually qualify as puns, but the definition of pun involves ‘word play’ and ‘play on words’ and I am most definitely playing with words here.
