[ Journals ] VIIII - Are We Having Pun Yet?

A pun is a humorous “play on words.” Puns can use words with two meanings, or words that sound similar to, or the same as, other words. One example is, “The musician who was in jail was waiting for his next release.” The word “release” has two meanings: “to set free” and “a new album.” Another example is, “ Some people don’t like food going to waist.” Puns are meant to be funny, but some people find them to be pun-ishment!
