I guess if I did that would make it eligible for this throwdown. Do you think its to late to carp it up? I think I better filet down for awhile.

 

[bigabyte]

Can it fellas. No trolling allowed here, or else I'll put the lox on this here thread.

Who ruffled your dorsal fin?

 

[deguerre]

[DaveMW]

Sound like everyone is getting crabby and rather shellfish.

 

[DaveMW]

6 pages of fish puns. Someone contact Guiness Book of World Records and sea if we qualify for any of their categories.

 

[Will work for bbq]

Must be that time of the month or worst yet minnow pause.

 

[DaveMW]

The tag below stating that "Snappers can be smelly" makes me laugh everytime I see it.

 

[deguerre]

OK, that one cracked my shell WWFBBQ.

 

[bigabyte]

I've been waiting to say "grooved carpet clam", so I'm just going to say it.

 

[silverfinger]

Found this and thought it would be fun to share.


In the early 80's, at the Ankor Bar, in Vancouver, BC, the Doc Fingers Band came up with an unusual way to keep spirits up: puns based on fish and song titles. After a couple of weeks the flood of humor had started to die down, but you could tell another pun was on its way when one of the guys in the band would start chuckling to himself, usually in the middle of a tune. The fish jokes had a second incarnation when I introduced them as a way to pass the time on a three week bus tour of Germany in 1993, with Rex Allen's All-Star Swing Express. Both bands contained the ideal combination of sick yet fertile minds that lead to such thinking, although I must say that some of the best examples of the genre also came from members of the Mike Vax Combo during a particularly long bus ride one night near Spokane sometime around 1985.
