I didn't mind the jokes. What I minded was people upvoting the more than the useful responses so you had to scroll to find them. Don't upvote low effort jokes, people.

I hated the long forced pun threads in particular. I just don't see how we can stop it from coming over unless we make explicit rules and enforce them.

I personally found the puns amusing as I find word play enjoyable. Don't forget this is all for entertainment after all.

There are two types of people in this world, those who love puns, and those who lie.
