PUNS OF THE YEAR
As anchor of CNN Student News, one of the questions I get asked the most is "Who writes the puns?" I answer that question in a video posted here, but this blog post is all about YOU: We wanna know what you thought was the best - or worst - pun of the year. (And if you can describe the video it came with, that'd be a bonus.)
Leave us your comment, and look for your favorite pun to get an encore in Friday's edition of CNN Student News!
I think that the pun that i thought was an ok pun would be the one where you said "Doggonit were out of time". That one was probably the best one that ive heard so far and ive been watching cnn student news the entire year!
P.S. You should use the pun counter when we come back from spring break.
i like the one with a airplane! but i think you need to work on them some more....
Yha he does need to work on some more! but he's not that bad i have a lot of haters in my school so they hate on you puns
But Solomon, you need to learn some punctuation. There is a huge difference between were and we're. And I think you used the wrong one. Also it helps to use capitalization when writing. And spell check. It makes your posts easier to understand by others.
I luv the puns that carl says after before we go segment! my class and i watch cnn student news every day.. monday – friday, and we always laugh.
I have to tell you, all of the puns are TERRIBLE. I don't think any are more TERRIBLE than the others. But at least Carl says them with a smile on his face. I think that that is all that matters, no matter how TERRIBLE they are.
They are not all terrible I think they are all good!But some people think differently that's okay.
Mean
You really don't have to capitalize terrible you know::
I really couldn't decide! I love all your puns, Carl! I love everything about the show! I'm going to miss CNN Student News in the summer! And you Carl!
bahhhhhhhhhhhh
Carl, your worst pun of the year was the one about the bear that was in the swimming pool it wasn't nearly as funny so, my class was like forget bout it went back to their work
Carl, I honestly think that the cat pun you said in the June 6 th episode was the worst pun you ever said.
I really felt mean and cruel by saying that but you know you have to tell the truth or your opinion.
i think the best one was about the skateboarding 1200 ollie pun but they are so corny that they are funny. i like them
The video that a puppy ate hot dog, you said "dog eat dog world! " and I think that was the funniest and best pund!
I can't remember all the puns, but I'd have to say that I enjoyed every single one.
Everyday, my class counts the puns and guesses how many puns there are. We watch Carl everyday and keep a Carl journal and take notes on it. Thanks for a great year.
i dont have a favorite one of those cheesy puns thetre all in the same category
I'm speechless. This can be a serpub blog and very attractive too. Nice work! That's now not actually a lot coming from an newbie publisher like me, however it's all I may just say after diving into your posts. Nice grammar and vocabulary. Not like other blogs. You actually recognise what you?re talking about too. Such a lot that you made me want to discover more. Your blog has develop into a stepping stone for me, my friend.
Some of the punts are ok but I am not a fan of most of them they need to be funnier.
Every single one! My class ALWAYS laughs at them 🙂
All of them? How could I choose? 🙂
The best pun would have to be when there was that girl that made a dress out of soda cans and then Carl said can she soda
My favorite pun of the year is ,"It's time to go meow!" The meow replaces now. (I love cats)
I enjoyed the puns form the episode with the bear swimming in the backyard pool. All I wonder is how they come up with the puns. They all are so funny.
I think that all the pun are good I don't think I could of come up with any puns at all.
P.S You rock Carl
You are totally right!:)
My favorite pun was the one from the video about the girl who made her prom dress from those soda can tops. I liked it when you said " she obviously knows how to sew duh ( sew duh replaces soda.)" I thought it was really funny.
meow
I liked the ones about the airplane yesterday the best. I did not like today's puns at all.
The worst pun was when Carl was talking about a guy living on a plain and then he said, "we don't want to look plain". Ugh.
Carl really did pretty good with the prom at the dock news. He wasn't walking the plank. LOL!
I don't laugh at the puns but mrs. Jops seems to love them:)
All puns are really funny.How can I choose?
I liked today's stuff especially how that death baby could hear and how he reacted when he heard his mothers voice.it was amazing.I also liked the swap o matic it was cool an interesting that you can swap,donate,or receive stuff.This was a awesome show today:) !
To be honest in the first time I saw student news I thought it will be boring but how Carl does the news with a smile it makes me want to see more of CNN student news. GO CARL!!!!!!!!!!!
I like all of your puns! You cat to be kitten me right meow!
I'm sorry but most of the puns I heard I didn't get it at all and some I just don't like, u need work to do
I'm sorry but most of the puns I heard I didn't get it at all and some I just don't like, u need work to do also the only one who probably gets your puns is my teacher Mrs. Jops
My favorite pun is the one about the girl who made her prom dress out of soda can tops and the one when the baby was deaf and he heard his moms voice and started to laugh.
This cat ain't kitten around.
I want to watch the new spider-Man movie but what about Spider-cat.
I like the one the kid that when he heard his moms voice he was so sirprized.
"we will seed you there" april 17 funniest thing ever
the puns of all time were the ones about the bear. the worst were the ones about the backflipping cat.
Dear caral I like the one where you said The dogs ate the Puns I think that was the funniest of all the puns you said carl
Sometimes i feel alone in class because no one ever gets your puns except me and my teacher! And i like all of your puns! i have been out of school for 2 weeks now and im still watching CNN student news at home. Keep up the awesome work Carl!!
Seriously, with no exaggeration, your puns are all awesome and so are you!!!
How can you leave me and all of the cnn student news fans and go away ?!
Please come back soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon.
Or I'll call to cnn headquater........ seriously. OK! Bye!
I couldn't pick the best pun because i liked all of them haha 🙂 Go Carl!!!
I just think there all funny. So in class after you say the puns I'll start clapping and everyone will stare at me. So can't wait to hear more next year
My favorite pun was when Carl was talking about a hot tub on a boat. Then he said, "We've got to go now before you jacuzzi me of watering down the puns." After that he actually said, "I like that one." Pun on, Carl, pun on.
I like them they are funny
wait a second ths he just said that he will be back from time to time?
I can't decide. There all so cool! But I love the pun counter! Bye Carl!
I believe all puns are a form of cruel and unusual torture.
I think that the puns make the show a little more interesting because even though you know the puns are coming you never know what the puns are going to be until they're said. So I've got to say that I feel neutral about it, I don't like any specific one(s) over any of the others but I don't dislike any more then any other either
Hey natasha I kind of agree with you too but haven't really heard any yet though
I think that I'm feline fine and ready for summer but before I go I look back at the previous year. A few of my classmates that sit behind me hate the puns and I can always expect to hear sighing at the end of each episode of CNN student news and for that we thank you.
i like same of the puns
I think that the worst pun was when he said " we don't want to look plain"
I am sorry Carl, but I do not like any of your puns in general. In fact, my class counts how many puns you say each day of the week! It really helps when there is a pun counter...
word up
does it really matter how many puns carl does
I have no favorite puns, but without them, there would be no reason to watch CNN Student News. Also, those are the most puns that I heard in a year, and another year of puns, and I would have a reason to see how many puns people can make.
While all the puns were "doggone-Good," the favorite one would be "Lady and the "Tramp' oline" although I can't wait to see how you "bounce" into next year's puns, and "spring" into the "fall" CNN news!
Though I do not especially pay any attention to Carl's puns, I pretty much like the epic fails. as for my liknig, I laugh at people who don't make it work out that well. He has an epic fail on all of them.
Almost every single pun is awesome! They're really funny...I love how it corresponds with the before you go...like "We will TURTALLY be back tomorrow!"
Your puns are all pretty good.
I think they are OK but they could use some work.
I like horses
I dont really care for puns. So I don't have a favorite.
"It's a dog eat dog world out there." (:
I don't have a favorite or a least favorite. I've enjoyed all of Carl's puns! In my oppinion, they are all good. My whole
class thinks so. We watch "CNN Student News" every day in my third block social studies class. We try to never miss an episode. And when we do, it really drives us nuts, especially the boys...
One of my favorite puns that I like is a Biblical pun. Someone asked me, "How did Moses prepare his tea?" I said, "Hebrews it."
Ok I started watching this near the end of the school year. Did all the episodes have puns or no?
I think your jokes are from my book at home!
I think your jokes are very funny and I laugh so much I fall of my chair!
I always laugh at your puns. They are cheesy, however I think that in class someone needs to laugh. What's the fun if you can't appreciate all sense of humor? My teacher always cracks a quick pun after yours, sometimes even a little more clever that I wish you could hear! No body can beat your puns, after all, a good pun is it's own re-word!
both my brother and i thought you had a pretty "chessy" pun about the military training mice to detect bombs in war
your puns were funny but they were random but for the most part they were good like the hot tub one that was flat out awsome.
you are the greatest CARL i love ALL YOUR PUNS and i am your biggest fan i have POSTERS OF YOU IN MY ROOM well pictures turned into posters Keep up the Puns
I haven't really heard of your puns lately but I'm watching the show for a very long time. I really like puns so due to me I think your puns will be OK but not as great. I will still like it. A lot of people in my school also is watching CNN Student News and they have told me your puns are funny so I can't wait to hear them.
I'm so sorry carl , but generally, your puns were not that funny.
but your a nice anchor with a smile on your face.
Some of the best were when you said "they would have to file a BATHING SUIT" and "we BEAR-ly" have any more time.
hey Carl THANK YOU FOR TELL such about that world
I loved the pun about the sticky situation (when the game maker people put the sticky notes together to make life size images of cartoon characters)!!!!! You, Carl Azuz, are amazing at doing your job and making kids learn but in a fun style!!! 🙂 Thanks for a wonderful year see you next year!!!
Love,
Madison
i think the puns are really interesting!i look forward to your new shows!
not sorry your puns are really stupid you really need to work on them allot more
your not so big fan
derritt
I think at the end Carl makes some cheesy puns, and my class sometimes laughs or sometimes groan, all we know is that they are cheesy puns!!! :-p
Oh i just loooove Carl's puns!! you rock carl!! :p
If you're hungry for more headlines, ....Dish it up tomorrow. See you spoon. HAHA...:)
Punds are better than school working. Ha Ha!
