Obama's Elf: The Worst Pun Of All Time? (VIDEO)

Huffington Post   First Posted: 3/20/09 Updated: 5/25/11

A man named Mark Liberman who runs the Language Log blog out of UPenn posted this YouTube video yesterday and begged the question is this the "worst pun of all time?"

The answer is almost certainly yes, yes this is the worst pun of all time. I tried to resist putting this up, but it's just so adorable/ridiculous that I folded.

Everybody calm down! It's supposed to be cute and harmless, which it is.

The Elf must be Vice-Presi­dent Biden, who was once one of the "7 Dwarfs" as in, "Michael Dukakis and the 7 Dwarfs".

"All by myself" - "Obama's Elf" OK. Took me a play and a replay to get it. In that sense it's a bad pun because you have to work at it. Even worse is the latest conservati­ve talk-radio pun "Obama nation" - "abominati­on" -- I actually heard this this morning on the radio of the tow truck hauling my car (and me) to the garage....

It's actually, " 'Scuse me while I zip my fly."
