[marked-for-deletion] pun |
|
| |
It's not a pun, it's a Spoonerism. |
|
| |
While it is true that the idea arose from the Spoonerism, the spoonerism should not form grounds for deletion of an otherwise valid idea. |
|

I can see this being a massively successful idea if
done properly. first of course you would appeal to
fans of that movie/tv show but then also just the
casual bar crowd looking for something new. throw in
a couple of props taken directly from the set and you
have the makings of something pretty cool, thought
how many "unique" ones can you think of? i
personally can't think of that many which would be
immediately recognisable.
sound starting point for an idea though |
|
| |
I can't stop reading this title as Barf Achery,
thought you should know. |

"Well, it's like this; Sheriff [Quest] has been losing it. It's the long hours. It's the lack of recognition. It's the case of ... the Kiss of Death. He's obsessed. He doesn't even have time to issue parking tickets any more. He's out there somewhere, scraping up diesel particulates, Florida beach sand, teenagers' pores... anything at all that's dot-like and black. Lord knows what he plans to do with it all." |

"Well, anyway, there's work to do here; are you coming quietly, [Twizz], or do we have to cuff ya?" |

[marked-for-deletion] pun. |

I know it's hard to resist playing "make up a name,
then come up with a description for it and see if
you can defend it against the humorless
moderators" here, but please don't fill the
halfbakery website with those attempts. |
|
| |
Sorry Jutta - I promise this is the last one. |
|
| |
Since this idea is now marked for deletion by the bakesperson, perhaps 21 Quest can try to get the last comment here? |
|
| |
You can always take the idea that the pun gave you, and
then change the name to hide the true nature of the
invention process. This makes such ideas immune to the
humorlessness of the mods. |

"The Humorlessness of the Long Distance Moderator". |
|
| |
New! Improved! Now with subtracted humor. |

"The Korova was a milk-plus mesto...." - A
CLOCKWORK ORANGE |
|
| |
Well, having missed this idea before, I'm now trying
to reverse-engineer it to see what the original
punnishable title was. |
|
| |
Way back when machine not didn't archive that day, how remiss. Maybe get onto NSA/GCHQ? |
|
| |
That speakeasy bar/gambling den that transforms into a temperance meeting in "Guys and Dollls". |
|
| |
Once your transforming be a different bar every day of the week. |
|
| |
Given Twizz and 2-fries' early comments ("It's not a pun, it's a Spoonerism."; "I can't stop reading this title as Barf Achery"), it must have been Balf Hakery, or something like that. |
