minus-squareMiles O'Brien@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·5 months ago… Genuine question: what was the pun? I have been considered an honorary dad due to my DadHumor, and I can’t find one.
minus-squaregrindemup@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·5 months agoI think the pun is that “Sick Man Died” sounds vaguely like / rhymes with Dick van Dyke. Spoiler: it’s not a very good pun.
minus-squareMiles O'Brien@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·5 months agoWell, you’re certainly correct in your assessment of the pun’s quality. I’m not a fan of slant rhyme even when it’s close, so it’s even less effective on me I guess. Thank you for the explanation, it now makes sense.
