Hello and Welcome

from the fresh-blood dept.

Hopefully you will have noticed a number of new editors that have appeared to help keep this site running. They have been active for over a week but you might not have noticed them if you have been enjoying the Thanksgiving Day holiday, or just spending money during Black Friday (which seems to last longer each year!)

Snow, Charon, FatPhil, Fnord666, and GreatOutdoors have completed their training and are busy making their contributions to the team, and there are several more volunteers who will begin training in the near future. I hope that you will welcome them and keep them busy by providing more and varied submissions for them to battle with. They have already significantly reduced the strain on the editorial team and we are all breathing a collective sigh of relief back here. Thank you for volunteering guys!

    Well, given that bad puns are the only puns...

    I've been staring at this for fifteen minutes and the best I can come up with is "I, for one, look forward to the punishment."

    Sorry, everyone......truly sorry.

      Do we need 'Punny' and 'Punishment' moderator choices for good and bad puns in comments?

        No need.

        A bad pun is its own punishment,
        a good pun is its own reword.

    The goodness or badness of a pun is subjective. You could say it's in the "Oy!" of the beholder :D
