Sure, this is a Dobie harkening back to an infamous thread here, but I had to do it.

seems pretty fishy to me.

Dan, surely the pun wasn't your sole reason for posting!
 
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
 
I couldn't resist the bait.
 
Posted by Megan (Member # 5290) on :
 
Well, I guess I won't carp too much.
 
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
 
you have to admit, it was a whale of a pun. And yes, I made it on Porpoise
 
Posted by Megan (Member # 5290) on :
 
It was; I was completely reeled in by it. In fact, your punning has been superior trout this short thread.

I was going to post a clever reply to this thread, but found it too deep to fathom.
 
Posted by Megan (Member # 5290) on :
 
Personally, I'm perched on my seat, waiting for Dan's next whopper of a pun.

I think people are running out of puns, the thread is beginning to flounder...
 
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
 
Can't think of a fish pun. I am up a creek without a paddle.

I'm sunk.

Any humor in this thread is strictly a fluke.

You guys are gilling me.

Oooo! Newbie scores!

Newbie loves cookies...

My fjord, What have I done?

Uprooted: Welcome!

Perhaps we made a good catch in you!
 
Posted by Uprooted (Member # 8353) on :
 
Megan, thanks--nice to know I don't have to feel like a fish out of water here! ;-)

face it, your Hooked on Hatrack.

This is not a matter for levity. If the fish are depleted, then the poor fishermen will be scrod.

You're just being shellfish.

Squid pro quo.
 
Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :
 
Hey, don't be anemone of fishermen.
 
Posted by Brinestone (Member # 5755) on :
 
I wonder how the net worth of fishermen will decrease as the cod population dwindles.

Alright, I came in too late in the game to think up a fresh pun. But on the topic of fish, try to say the name of the State Fish of Hawaii above. Then say it five times fast. I've lived here for two years and still can't remember it!

I can't say that big word--all the syllables seem to smelt together.

Maybe it would be easier to sing it, like a tuna.
 
Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
 
How do you tuna fish?
 
Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :
 
Bah, I've never been able to hold a tuna. They just slip right through my hands. If I'm gonna hang on to one, I have to perch it on a pike. That or a swordfish.

And I'm really not sure how you'd tuna fish. I think you'd need a really shark implement. Then I'd expect you'd open up it's gut and mess with its innards a bit. Then you could try a scale or two and see if it's right. If it isn't you'll probably have to debone it.
