Re: Bad Fantasy Jokes
A few clerics wanted to open up a flower shop, but the ranger wouldn't let them.
You see, he had misheard his instructions, and thought one of his duties was to prevent florist friars.

Back when I worked in a bakery, my assistant was an Ogre. One day, he was helping me prepare pies and asked what he was supposed to do. I said, well, this one's going to be gift, so take some ribbon and make up a fancy bow for it. And while your at it, it needs to be at least four pounds, so weigh it, and if it comes up short let's use another one.
Well, the Ogre put the pie down right where I was working, and started tying the bow!
I said "Not here, I'm working, find another spot!"
So the Ogre picked up the pie and the ribbon, and stomped off, singing...
"Somewhere, Ogre arrange bow, weigh a pie..."

Things like that got things thrown at me, over the years of DM'ing. Throwing things at the DM is why I learned to love RPOL. No risk here, no matter how bad the puns got!
But back in the bad old days I could see the blood in their eyes, when they realized that an entire adventure was nothing but a set up for a pun.
Like the episode with the Witches from the Great Sand Desert of Haminch. When they were captured, the king wanted them interrogated, and told the players...
"I want these Haminchese Sand Witches GRILLED!"
