@ecoinstant
For the wham bam of sadness and funniness that comes from the civil war puns! Such well designed puns on such a painful topic!

And what prizes do they win, you ask?

Why, as usual, all the punsters got full strength upvotes on their submissions.

Our category winners will each get to choose a post (of their own or someone else's) and I will give that post a fully powered upvote and a @tipu tip!

And the big, exciting prize of 1 SBI will go to @ecoinstant!

This week's pun topic is...

Rapid!

As in,
Why do Muslims win races during Ramadan? Because they FAST!

Perfect,

I'm so good at puns....

If you've never punned before, it might seem like magic! You can do it, too! Learn how in My Free How-To Guide on Punning!

I've entered this contest in the @comedyopenmic contest as well! It's turtles all the way down, and a set of all sets contains itself.

I nominate @paul.atreides and @ecoinstant to do @comedyopenmic, too!
