Puns about fish and other "things of the sea."

Keep your friends close and your anenomes closer. Have you heard of the Steinway fish? He's a piano tuna.

Holy mackerel? Did you post this just for the halibut? Or to watch us flounder about helplessly in the presence of your puns?

Either way, I'm hooked.

Did Paul Anchor use that Steinway guy to tuna his pianos so he could sing his scales, Bob?

Good golly, miss molly, but why do I have a feeling that my babies inspired this one?

You guys remember that dancing baby? The guy who developed it was a big fan of unagi.

He especially liked the young, tender unagi.

He was hooked on an eel-ling.

Ok, do we post the entire lyrics from Kip Adadda's "Wet Dreams" or just bits and pieces.

I could never Tuna Piano, so I became a Bass player.

I love that song, but Dan beat me to what I was going to say. So I guess I'll just clam up, as there wouldn't be a porpoise to fin-ishing this post.

You mean a punster like Bob has never heard Wet Dream before? That's really kraken me up!

I just got back from buying new jeans. I go through a lot of jeans because a wear them constantly. I even wore brand-name jeans to run in a 26-mile race. Boy, was I ever tired after that Levi-a-thon.

I remember that. I won that race. Since it was an amateur event, they couldn't give us money, so they fed us caviar instead. Yep, got paid in roe bucks.

Well, you all seem to be getting on swimmingly.

Bar-ring any fishy posts by trolls, I'd say this thread will be quite bubbly till the end.

You: Hey! How's that new pet fish doing? I heard he has a special talent.

Me: Well, he IS a parrot fish and the guy who sold him to me promised he could sing. But I am a little disappointed in him actually.

You: Too good to be true, huh?

Me: No, no, he can sing all right. But he's off key and it's driving me nuts. Do you know how hard it is to tuna fish?

Wow, this thread dropped to the second page after only 13 posts. I guess our fish puns really tanked.

No, I think we're just washed up.

We need to get a larger thinking cap size.
 
Posted by Enigmatic (Member # 7785) on :
 
I had a thinking carp once, but he was too deep for me. He always wanted intellectual conversation, but I just wanted to surf the internet for prawn.

If you knew sushi like I knew sushi...

I was going to sponge off of Enigmatic's post and admit, finally, that I have a prawn addiction. I figured it'd be a sort of squid pro quo. But then, I thought, I a spear to greater things. And that's how we get holey mackeral.

"Lox of luck."

"I'm sorry, what was that? I'm hard of herring."

<mussels in on the conversation> "Don't be so shellfish."

"Sea you later"

When it comes to puns, my humor seems to a-bait. [Blushing]

Aw shucks, they aren't that bad.

In fact, I think you're a fine addition to our little coral group, er, sure, you've tried to claw your way to the top and you're in over your head, swimming with sharks, so to speak. But it's not like we want to gill you or anything. In fact, we think you're today's special catch. I hope you can take a little good-natured grilling.

Aw shucks!

I had the worst drink ever...It was at one of those raw bars. I drank the darn thing anyway, while I waited, and waited, and waited for my meal. Finally I asked the bartender where my blue points were. He pointed to the gray-looking concoction he'd poured from the blender.

"The whirled is your oyster," he said.
