On to last weeks winner(s)!
As always, every pun entry is a winner, and, lucky you, @lloyddavis has delegated some SP to me AND the price of Steem has risen, so the upvotes I bestow on all the puns have climbed from $0.02 to $0.04! WOW! That's some hefty prize-age!
As far as I can tell, there were only three entries. There was one comment that had the cumbersome language of a pun as someone claimed they couldn't make puns, but nowhere in it did I actually perceive a pun, so it is perhaps simply a matter of someone who uses language cumbersomely.
Here were the entries:
Now, naturally, they all win. Really! Each of you may send me a link to upvote with my newly discovered POWER. But also, I have to choose one to stand above the rest (I said stand).
Man. I'm looking them over again, and finding ti very difficult to decide. @doctorcrypto's has the advantage of being the first to use the evocative historical events in crafting a joke I can see in my mind's eye. But there's also something to be said for @paul.atreides' building on that theme. That takes an extra bit of craft, plus it seems he took to heart my adoration for shaggy dog jokes, hm...though the pun itself isn't really a pun, unless you think Sitting Bull was actually sitting... And @themadgoat is a newcomer with a solid pun.
Tough choices, man. It's a good thing I'm not in charge of nuclear launch codes.
I declare this week a tie.
Just kidding.
The winner is!
@paul.atreides, because though the PUNchline was lacking, his confidence in making up history is to be comedically lauded.
You get bragging rights.
I hope you'll all enter again, and bring some friends!
This week's word is
As in, what did the mad scientist say as Honus Wagner took the field?
"Look alive out there!"
