TL;DR Make a pun in the comments, here's how.

Good heavens.

Seriously. I can't choose a winner. They're all SO DANG GOOD.

EVERYBODY WINS

Seriously.
Check out the comment feed.
The word was "force" and entrants were encouraged to let it inspire Star Wars puns as well as other force-related work.

As I mentioned to him, I love multiple puns in one setup-punchline.
Oh boy, did folks deliver, even having conversations in the language of pun.

But there can only be one true winner

Because bragging rights are important

And so, drum roll please...

First, let me clarify, all the winners are welcome to send me a post that they want upvoted. These entries were all worth their weight in upvotes.

But let's dive into the why of the gloating?

Gloating is important because-

No, I mean, why did that one win?

Oh, right, well, shall we use Markdown to make a list?

  • let's.

Oof. Too soon.

Now?

Now.

  • Because of the funny voice.

That's not a list. That's just one thing.

Yes, well, that's all that was required.

Entrants are more than welcome to continue posting their puns as pieces of writing. I also now encourage entrants to post short videos if they feel so inclined. I'd love to HEAR these silly voices and see your silly faces.

This week's word is...

And here's my example:
A partner walks into a bar (exam) and the proctor says, "I'm sorry, we don't serve partners here."
The partner says, "Why-fe?"
BAM! You been punned!
Off the top of my head, I have hits for lawyer stuff, cowboy stuff, and life partner stuff. Find whatever interests you about "partner" and make the puns! I think this week might be a little harder than "force" was, but that just means when you find a good one, we'll all erupt with laughter that reverberates across the Steemit universe.

And, unrelated, here's a video of pun delivery:

Sort:  

This is an easy one this week because we all don't open accounts on Steemit unless we are at least PARTNERd.

Voila. This is one that would benefit from being in a video...

Ach! Damn my prophetic comment! All these recent string of losses is bringing down my average wins in contests here on Steemit. Just goes to show one cannot force their entries. Great job @miniature-tiger! The force is with you, and you won using 'force' :D

Great bicycle pun! I can't stop laughing by the end of the video haha!

You got this. And, to be fair, you did win, you just didn't WIN. But for sure you won.

Before I married my wife Rayleen, there was neighbor named Ner who was always hitting on her and asking her out on dates even though he knew we were together.

One day while I was with Rayleen in the park having a picnic, Ner walks up and tells her that she should leave me for him while i'm sitting right there!!

I got down on one knee and propose to Rayleen right then and there.
Of course she said yes.. So I went to my pick up and got a baseball bat.
The rest is history.

On that day I took a partner...... then I took apart Ner.

I know so many people named Ner. It's a very common name in Wisconsin. Is that where you're from?

Yeah.....he's probably from there. Let the record show that I cared enough about the time it took for you to make a thoughtful comment like that to drop you a line. It looks like that Wisconsin dude didn't.

This detail will be taken into careful consideration.

FYI, I'll drop the winner post tomorrow.

Sounds good, buddy. :-)

thats all I got

Where's yer pun for this week?!?

Thanks, I'll check it out. :-)

What did the cowboy say when his incompetent attorney, Deanne, got a big promotion at her law firm? "How'd Dee partner?"

Why do lawyers always get the best girls at the dance? They know how to partner up.

What do you call two lawyers working at the same crooked law firm? Partners in crime.

What do you call a yacht bought by two cowboys pooling their money together? A PARTNER-ship.

How did the barrister make so much money from his last Steemit post? He PARTNER-ed with a whale.

Why did the corporate lawyer sign a prenup before he got married?. He wanted a limited liability PARTNER-ship.
