My daughter had to wire an essay about her hobby, which is softball. Her opener:
Pitcher this, you’re standing on a mound.
I was overwhelmed, and more proud than ever. She threw in some other puns too, it was an excellent essay, she’s giving me a run for my money, I batter watch out.
Edit: thank you u/PsychicGnome for the reminder that my kids are better parents than I am
My friend got a static shock, and in the span of 5 minutes I rattled off these:
-
Geez, that's shocking news.
-
How are you current-ly feeling?
-
Don't give me that look. I'm just trying to energize you.
-
Looks like I gotta amp up my jokes.
-
I'm gonna hit you with a battery of jokes until you laugh.
-
Don't let your sense of humor be so static.
-
This isn't a crime, you can't charge me with anything.
-
Wire you so upset?
-
Do you want me to plug the stream of jokes?
He took the guitar from my hands, leaned it on the front of my amp and left the room.
And my bassist/vocalist was asking what we thought about a song we were just writing. So I took my hands off the strings and let them start making noise on their own, as I was standing directly in front of my amp. When he looked at me, confused as I was just staring at him, I finally broke the silence: "I'm giving you feedback."

So a little context: fresh sage is really hard to come by around Thanksgiving. The first grocery store we went to didn't have any so we had to go to another. As we were approaching the second store, there was an armored ATM vehicle out front.
"They've really amped up the security on the sage," I smirk pointing to the ATM van.
With the biggest grin on his face, Dad says, "Guess you could call that (••) , ( ••)>⌐■-■ , (⌐■_■) a sage coach."
Don't know if that was clever enough to share, but there you have it. Thanks for reading!
I'm an audio engineer and I do a lot of bass-heavy stuff like trap and a couple older-style rap groups. With that in mind, my dad decided I needed a pair of 12-inch subs and an amp for my car. You know, to fill out the bottom end a little.
So, the day of my birthday, I was in town at my parents' house. He told me to get in the car with him and we start driving. I ask him where we're going but he tells me it's a surprise.
We roll into the parking lot of Subway. He had already ordered ahead and told me to wait in the car for my food. He brought out two 12-inch subs... and an Amp energy drink. My dad, folks.
I recently got an electric violin and an amp for my birthday and my sister in law was asking my mom how I liked it. Mom replied with, "She loves it, she's pretty amped about it."
I was in the other room giggling. So proud of her.
I maintain a small pun page on Facebook because a bunch of my family and friends would "complain" every time I'd post an image pun to my personal page.
My 17 year old step-son just sent me this one for the page. I'm so proud of him.
