Some jokes *do* need to be told – some jokes even need to be turned into a picture. This is one such joke. (Via Hush)
I shot the Serif
Ha. One of my favourite visual puns and a brilliant twist on the legendary “I shot the sheriff” – I shot the Serif. And many people would like to. It’s not always the most popular font but I’m never sure why. (Via the Rejectionist).
Bulbasaur used Leech Seed
A Pokemon file sharing gag! It had to happen. Wasn’t Bubasaur one of the better but underused Pokemon? Why didn’t the cute critter not just hang back while attacking with its Bulbasaur tentacles? That’s what I would have done! (Via Fuck Yeah, puns!)

That’ll give us Star Wars chipmunk. Will that be cool? Let’s see if these pictures work for you!
Beware the carot zombie
You might think it’s a parsnip… but it’s a carot zombie! This photo, among many others, adds to the weight of evidence that I should buy the Bent Objects book.
That’s not a net. This is a net!
Okay, hats off to Design Boom. I thought this morning’s “Sleep or bounce?” post had a nifty and bouncy net construct in it… but they’ve done so much better! I’ve some examples below but you really should visit Design Boom for the full set.
