Fall Puns and Jokes

Emily Boshera, Staff Writer

These puns will “leaf” you “fall”ing over in laughing.

What are puns? Puns are jokes exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or the fact that there are words that sound alike but have two different meanings. For example: The pigs were a squeal! Get this… Egyption hieroglyphs and Sumerian cuneiform were originally based on a punning system. As was the Roman playwright Plautus, he was famous for his puns and word games.

Oh my “gourd” I love fall!
