One of the reasons it’s so good is that it’s TRUE! The anniversary DID fall on Wednesday!

Thanks for helping me celebrate!

And what prizes do they win, you ask?

Why, as usual, all the punsters got full strength upvotes on their submissions. (WORTH $0.02! So much value!)

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 -let me know in a comment here- and a @tipu tip!

And they all get big, exciting SBI prizes!

(@coinsandchains, you’ll get your one more SBI for the POCKET Choice award from @freedomshift!)

This week's pun topic is...

Monsters!

As in,
When my son is upset, and mummy is out with her fiends at one of their old haunts, who comforts him?
Deady.

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!

Who do I nominate for @comedyopenmic’s comedy challenge? This past week’s winners, @paul.atreides, @steemmonstershow, and @coinsandchains...


And, as long as I have your attention… well, this place is already saturated with people who have referral codes for various “free money” things, but here are mine!

Coinbase: Cryptocurrency investment- https://www.coinbase.com/join/5929c0788331aa072d9e347e
(Hot tip, I buy BTC on pro.coinbase.com, then send it to bittrex to trade for Steem and send steem to my wallet here. It’s the most efficient way with the fewest fees I’ve found. If you’ve found better, let me know. - I learned from someone else that buying LTC and sending it to bittrex then trading it for BTC then trading that for STEEM is the least-fees way. Can someone confirm?)

The other night, I got home late from going out with friends. And as I walked up the steps of my house, I realized I didn't have my jacket with me. I monster left it at the karaoke place.

Maybe you Monster drink less too.

In case of a zombie apocalypse here's three thing to never as a zombie.
What for dinner?
Can you give me a hand?
What are you thinking?

What's for dinner? Well if you are close enough to ask it's usually you...
Can you give me a hand? He might actually give you his, or someone else's.
What are you thinking? It's never much, it bounces between Food and the theme song from Frozen(I'm pretty sure it's what caused this mess in the first place.)

Now that's a new one on me. A @gentlebot upvote? That appears to be rather random?...
Not complaining just curious.

Not random. I love @gentlebot. It tries to guess via AI what comments will get upvoted.

Oh boy!

Hey, there's a Chibera story thought for you... Mana reanimated corpses... the could even be controlled by whomever controls some object or the special dark mana crystals that created them. Those dark crystals could even have something to do with the dark elves...

ZOMG

Trump is in my town today and I just heard that he is staying an extra night....who says the Great Pumpkin never shows up around Halloween?

Why was the horseman frustrated after his date? He was headless.

Or it could have been that he was riding on a night mare, then his date turned into one...

Nice one! You're KRAKEN me up.

I Arrakeen you Dune know what I'm going to say next. Unless you really are Muad’Dib, then we all be in trouble.

You got me, not sure I can WORM my way out of this one.

The. Best.

Good curation.

Ooooo

Another glorious Punday Monday victory, thank you, thank you! So many good puns already this week and it is only Tuesday. It's going to be hard to determine which one is BEAST.

Cool, thanks guys. I guess you need monster puns

Yes, and puns that are intense. It's gotta be(h)emot(h) ional!

Did you hear about the creature that emerged from the deli after the radioactive chemical spill? Apparently, it was a real scary MUENSTER.

What did they tell Beowulf when he complained about having to schlep off to the boondocks to slay another monster......"Just GRENDEL and bear it and you'll be a GEAT hero."

There was a vicious rumour going around Oktoberfest about a monster on the loose. But it was just our mate Frank with his beer - Yep good old Frank-and-Stein.

I think this monster was already punned about this week in HEROIC fashion but I won't BANSHEE you for trying, besides, who doesn't love Octoberfest. :-)

I know!! I hadn't read his comment YETI when I posted mine. The LOCHNESS is uncanny between our monster posts though. I guess great minds think alike and there's nothing KING KONG with that..

I enjoyed the PUNgent nature of your FRANKINCENSE, good job!
