Why do people apologize for them anyway?
Michael said, "because it's considered low brow humor"... so puns are un-smart? On the contrary! I think you have to be pretty clever to use a pun, and you have to be pretty quick to pick up on a pun. I think you're un-smart if you MISS a pun., and I'll go so far as to say you're foolish if you miss a pun opportunity.
This all came about at the museum shop tonight. I was talking to one of the museum members about the new David Yurman eye wear collection (she had some nice specks on, and she liked the ones I wear). At the end of the chat she says, "his new eyeglasses are coming out this month...let's hope they're good... I guess we'll have to SEE...I apologize for the pun!"
I could've said, " I forgive you, because that's an accidental pun"... no work involved in that one. But I smiled and waved instead... and got to thinking.
I realize I always apologize for puns, or point them out in an apologetic way... usually involving parenthesis and some kind of explanation. ie (no pun intended), (pun intended).
I can't even come up with a pun to put in this post-- that's how UN-un-smart puns are!
On another note, working at a museum during a gallery opening is great. Tonight is First Friday in lovely Rochester... which means champagne (not while I work. bummer) and baklava and cubed cheese... And after my shift is done here, I'll get to hop around a few local galleries and maybe I'll use some puns. And I won't be sorry for it.
