These Tinder Messages Are As Awkward And Hilarious As It Gets!

Not Getting The Pun

Playing on words can have different effects on people, and can either be meant as jokes or rhetorics. Karen here wasn’t getting the jokes quite clearly. Some people prefer directness as opposed to ambiguous humor. The concept of punning is ancient and has been recorded to date as far back as Mayan times.

It’s also a tradition featured at old Palestinian weddings in the form of poetry duels. Well, it may be considered a language of love, but Karen doesn’t speak puns. People take punning so seriously that there’s an annual competition called the O. Henry Pun-Off Words Championships. He has a better shot at the competition than Karen.
