HIGH SCHOOL NEWSICAL
Dear Pun Gents, I need a pun for the title of our school’s newspaper. Right now it is the ‘Zeitgeist’ but we would like something more catchy. Our school focuses on math, science and technology. Maybe something with ‘infinite’? ~Kelsey, Lawrenceville, GA (long-time fan)
AS THE PUN GENTS SEE IT:
- Forget the Zeitgeist: make way for the Zit Digest
- Kids in the LOL
- Paper View Channel
- Youth Tube
- Rag Against the Machine

MATCHISMO
Dear Pun Gents, I just started my own matchmaking business and have been offered a five-minute slot on a South African radio station. The slot is called Pun Review.

Late Braking Gnus (cause accidents): Gents Interviewed on MushyPony.com
Sitting down with founders Patrick Tanzola and Rhain Louis of Pungents.com (Canada’s top pun website), we weren’t sure what to expect on that brightly punny day outside U of T’s Hart House. Nursing our coffees, we were suddenly caught off-guard when a massive hawk swept down beside us, grabbed a small mouse from the garden, and flew off – nearly causing us to hawk-up our lunch.
Patrick: “That was falcon crazy!”
Rhain: “I’m sure the mouse found it starling”
THIS IS SWORE

IGNORAMUSING
Dear Pun Gents, something about man’s ignorance of nature. The plague of technology etc. ~Ashley, Sydney, Australia
AS THE PUN GENTS SEE IT:

- To protect myself from evil technology, iPadlocked my gate.
- It’s Life is Beautiful, not Life is Boot-able.
KICKS KATS
Dear Pun Gents, we need two team names for a management vs. employee charity kickball game. All employees work customer service for a large satellite television provider. Names must be HR appropriate, but can be a slightly inappropriate pun (ex. Kickin’ Grass). ~Kim, Huntington, WV

- Corporate Punishment
- Emplohyenas
