    I watched the solar Eclipse through a colander.

    I think I've strained my eyes.

    Obviously you need more straining on how to watch an eclipse safely. Good thing for you that eclipses are rare, you wouldn't want to restrain yourself too often.

    Two punny jokes:

    #1 A class is about to have their first communion. The priest comes in and has to ask them a few questions beforehand. He faces the kids and says, "Who can tell me what the Resurrection is?

    The kids glance at each other uncomfortably and finally a little boy in the back raises his hand.

    "Eric!" the priest says with a smile. "What's the resurrection?"

    "I don't know, exactly," the little boy admits. "But if it lasts more than four hours, you should see a doctor."


    #2 A catechism class is told by their teacher to draw "the flight into Egypt". As they start drawing, the teacher walks around the class, and comments on their pictures.

    "Mary, that's a beautiful picture!"

    "John, you're such a good artist!"

    Finally, she reaches a boy named Jason. "Jason. that's… very creative. Why are they in a plane?"

    "Because it's the flight into Egypt."

    "And who is that in the back?"

    "That's the Holy Family."

    "All right, but who is that up front?"

    "That's Pontius! He's the Pilate (Pilot)!"

    In the late '90s, there was a former football player named Ezra Tuaolo, who after he retired was one of the first former professional athletes to come out as gay. At the time I was in high school, and naturally there was some inappropriate jokes made at his expense when the subject came up in the locker room.

    My best friend calmly seized the opportunity and said, "Why don't you guys cool it with the jokes, what do you think you're Better than Ezra??"

    I used to have a Pontius, it ran great for years. When it finally died, my girlfriend Chrysler heart out.

    @Nimran Do you often find yourself on the wrong side of a knife?

    No, just pointy objects in general.
    It's those murderous ferrets that keep threatening you.

    I can see your point, @wubble.

    Gods, these incessantly sharp puns are like a knife to the heart.

    I'm sorry, I'm not very good at these puns. I'm a little worried that I just can't cut it.

    Fun fact about lions: they're not very active. Most of the time, they're just lion around.

    Ha, these puns are so on point. The posters here are so sharp-witted, they make my belly burst with piercing laughter.

    Those puns are sharper than a page of Oscar Wilde witticisms that have
    been rolled up into a point, sprinkled with lemon juice and jabbed into
    someone's eye.

    @wubble Punnery is a double-edged sword, slicing through to the heart of the matter. Quite a sharp one, you are!

    It was integral for him to push the natural log out of the way, but it was just too heavy. He had met his limits.

    One of Jan's uncles taught at Ulcaster. He was professor of ecognomics.

    One of Jan's cousins was a bard. He wrote this song:
    "Tick... tick... tick... tick..."
    He was a metrognome.

    Many of Jan's relatives are considered more successful than he. After all, a rolling gnome gathers no moss.

    Yes, I stole these from David Bowie.

    Magic the Gathering also made that joke with one of its cards.
