You must be thinking, “Why does Bored Panda have a list of Terrible Puns ?” and “If these puns are funny , why would they be termed terrible?” Hear us out before you jump to any conclusions!

You’re surely acquainted with the expression, “So bad, it’s good.” It’s a way of saying something is so remarkably bad that you find yourself speechless and hypnotized by its lame energy. So, what does this have to do with puns ?

The best puns are terrible. Not just bad. Terrible. Some people think puns are the lowest form of humor, but they’re wrong. Puns are the funniest thing ever invented by a man (or woman). They’re the definition of “ so bad that they’re good .”

Today, we gave it our worst, though. The terrible puns in this list are of the poorest type, like the most stupid dad jokes you could think of. And yet, they have so much cringeworthy energy and enthusiasm behind them that you can’t help but be drawn in and enjoy their absurdity, even if you’re aware you’re not supposed to find them funny if you have any sanity left!

Beware: If you’re gonna laugh because of them, it means your humor is utterly broken. And that’s totally ok; you’re still cool to us. So sit back and laugh out loud at this selection of terrible jokes that are funny, cringy, lame, and yet enjoyable!
