Night 1
I've heard the saying before that you shouldn't put all your eggs in a basket, but no one ever told me that applied to puns.
Just kidding. Puns write themselves, after all. Just like the game.
It did become more challenging, though. After all, how can you follow
Pignocchio? Overnight, the brainstorming, the pundering, it was widespread. Noodle boxes were abuzz with punderful thoughts,
peppered about (aw, look at that, my rehabilitation continues on a positive trajectory).
Some found themselves getting a little sassy ... even a little saucy. 24 hours is a long time to marinara, you know. And for one in particular, things got a little ... too messy.
She deeply appreciated a good joke. After all, her own noodle had a double meaning - why just limit yourself to being a pasta when you could also be a muscular contributor to the ass in passta?
yeah ok that one was bad, listen, I'm doing my best here
or at least a parboiled 75%
there aren't that many puns coming to mind for this noodle
clam down
But there's nothing half-assed about these jokes. I'd never be so cheeky - puns are srs bzness. And in fact, they're the national currency on a rock in the middle of the Atlantic.
She settled in for a restful night. Nothing to worry about, or so she thought. But she heard a knock on the box -
tap tap tap
and went to see what was amiss. She saw nothing, and stepped out further. "Hello?" she called into the darkness.
"What do you call 6.02x10^23 butts?" came a mysterious voice.
She scratched her head. The answer came to her immediately, but it seemed off-theme for a game about pasta puns. But when you're delighted to be a word that also references butts ... you don't have to ask a friend.
"Mol-asses." she said, confidently, hoping that the boldness of a Queeb saying such a thing would end this once and for all.
And it did, but not the way she hoped. She felt a drip on her head - rain, she presumed, and she looked up at the sky.
The last thing she felt was the crash of a wave over her. As she was washed away, she couldn't help but think to herself that it was so appropriate that she had been
assassinated.
