Good afterPUN!

I mean afternoon. Sorry, I'm stuck in the pun galaxy. It's always afterPUN here. It's also beforePUN and duringPUN. It could be any time where you are when you read this, and honestly, when I'm writing this, since people from ALL OVER THE WORLD are on Steemit. Well, it has to be 2 minutes after whichever hour it is. Because that's how all the times work. Silly.

It is time.

It is many times. We've had one day's worth of pun days (I mean, 24, so if you spent an hour on each post, you'd get through them in a DAY!)

Here's the very first one,

which also has instructions on how to enter!

The POCKET WINNER'S CIRCLE includes @chrisroberts, @stinawog, @doctorcrypto, @heroic15397 and @littlescribe... poor @paul.atreides needs someone, ANYONE else to vote for winners, because they just maybe might vote for him.

And our video awards again go unrewarded! Only one winner has ever been crowned in that category! Easy way to make a spot of SBD (which has risen in value tremendously, ya?)

And our overall winner is....
drumroll, please.

@ajremy! You should send me a link to get upvoted and tipped!

This week's pun subject is inspired by a friend's pun

The subject was "dating", and he started to talk about carbon dating... which led me to this pun:

So, anything in that realm: dating, dates, carbon dating, dating apps, relationships... so on. You can do it!

Sort:  

So glad I won.... yaaay!!

I'll pick a date to make puns about date later. But right now I'm eating date on a date.

Seriously though... I'll be back

If I date Ed (dated) at the back of a restaurant can I say we BACKDATED?.. and if we drank only CARBONated drinks, is that CARBON DATING?.

So I had a friend named Karburn and KABURN HATED CARBONATED drinks. Cos he thinks CAR BURN releases CARBON. Very silly!

Back to dates, it took me TWO DAYS to figure out TODAY'S date and it was already two days later by that time.

Arrgh.. I'm off

You're doing just fine! Especially "Karburn hated"!

Thanks

Yay! It's Punday Night Funball! I'd'hate to miss it, so I made sure I'd'ate before the i.n.i.t.i.a.l. pun! T'su know?

Do you have a link for me? Did you see you won the POCKET choice award?

Oops, I was caught for not thoroughly reading this part. haha

Thanks @paul.atreides for the POCKET and vote, and thank you @improv for hosting this cool weekly punster gathering and for all of the upvotes! Here is the link:

Done!

Yes. I was thinking: I use plenty of upvote bots on myself, why not this time use my prize to encourage someone else's good & deserving post and for the sake of Steemit users retention.

Thx! I saw the way you did it. Perfect!

It’s Monday and no post yet, are you going to have to postdate it?

Ha... But no. I'm working on it now. I'm on baby time nowadays, and baby doesn't have time for me to write on STEEMIT.

There is nothing more important that RAISIN the little ones. I hope you give us a fire update in the post as well. It looks bad out there, stay safe!

We're in a safe area. Not much to burn around here :)

I once dated a girl with the last name of Carbon. Unfortunately, the Carbon dating results were inconclusive.

Has anyone ever stopped in Dateland, Arizona and tried one of their famous date shakes? I have not yet but it is on my bucket list. They have an interesting Web site and an amazing history but I must admit that the ambiance seems a bit dated.

No, I haven't kept up-to-date with what happens in Dateland. Maybe when you go during the evening rather than during daytime, the ambiance is better with another famous product of theirs being highlighted and it's da-thing not to be missed.

Is Dateland, Arizona, close to Lee, Nevada? Because I wouldn't know where Lee is, on* a map. It's a fair* question, isn't it?

*liaison
*affair

No, the two towns are not close, and yes, your question was very RAISIN-able.

Agree, it was, because how else could I have known since I was not raised in Arizona.

I loved that flick, it’s a great DATE movie.

And I love that chick, I would not Holly Hunter down for a date, but I would also masseur she says yes.

Here’s a silly one for you:
I once asked a librarian out on a date. She turned me down and in a very annoyed manner cleaned the crushed fruit off of the bottom of my shoe and rebuked me for bringing food into the library.

Even sillier:
How many dates could a date date if a date could date dates?

Dates?! No, I'm pretty sure date don't date dates!

Perhaps not, but dates do have dates, don’t they? Like all of us they have dates with destiny.

And so goes the story... what's an ex? That they'll have Destiny's Child?

If your out of luck finding a partner to go out with, you can always date an android.

I just learned what the most popular dating Web site is in North Korea. It's "Match that Com"

Bitcoin hit 19,000 today!! Someone make note of the date.

Forget about the date, it's only a day-tale.

True, but today’s feverish action could be the TINDER for another surge in the price tomorrow.

Yes, and today's upswinging of the price combined with the usual volatility is a BADOOnion that will lead to an ​Even more unsubstantiated rise in value. Of that, I am Adamant.

I had an absent-minded buddy that worked in the General Mills cereal factory. He got fired for forgetting to date the Chex.
