1. Ha!

2. Then there’s CoMA, the Committee on Mindless Accommodation…

3. That MoMA nomanclature is a chronic mnemonic.

4. Well MoMA – NOMA obviously. But I was also wondering if there was a pun to be found in “complete bust” Afterall, MoMA might be considered an art museum by some 🙂

   1. What would constitute an incomplete bust? No shoulders?

      1. A bus.

         1. Thanks for coaching me.

            1. You just can’t stop. It’s not really fare to those of us with more meager talents.

            2. That’s the ticket!

               …and is it time to transfer this to a different line…?

               b&

            3. Light weights!

               /@

            4. Indeed. Mine are never as well-articulated.

            5. At least, not accordion to what we hear….

            6. How he does it is bayan-d me.

            7. I still say Ant is the best punster, even if he’s too bashful to accept the honour. 🙂

            8. …and I saw what you did there – good job.

            9. 😁

      2. I think it can be a bust with just a head. Maybe a missing nose. And thanks for making me think too long about that.

         1. “My bust’s got no nose.”

            “How does it smell?”

            …

            /@

            1. bronze-y.

      3. Not a question to lose your head over.
         Noses, obviously.

         1. That just cracks me up.

5. There’s an art to a good pun.

   1. you win

6. It’s the Museum of Overlapping Magisteria! Over here, we have a diorama featuring a Creationist in his natural habitat of high-tech computerized animatronic dinosaurs being ridden by a life-size Fred Flinstone….

7. Ha! I think it’s a good pun.

8. Yo’ NOMA so fat… they, um, overlap.

   1. ok, you and Thomas Beck are tied.

   2. Ha ha!

9. NOMA is an island. No, wait, two islands.

   1. Really, an archipelago.

      /@

      1. Points for cranking up the pocket protector factor.

      2. If a man is an archipelago, I suppose then a small man must be a pelago? Would John Donne have agreed?

      3. With only two islands involved, you could also have a tombolo. (Going for the pocket-protector factor ; I used to be fascinated by the tombolos around there when I flew over it on a regular basis.)

         1. Is there a prize?

            /@

            1. There is – you get your name on a TSA no sigh list

   2. Someone should direct Rabbi Sacks to this thread.

      1. That’s what I was thinking. I *really* don’t understand the people who say that atheists are humorless, and I strongly suspect psychological projection.

10. “It’s a really bad pun”

    Music to my ears!

11. MOBO next?

    /@

12. Pun or spelling, bad either way

13. Mona Lisa?

14. I’m still trying to work out how Arsène Wenger fits into it all.

    1. . . . and why is he arguing with Rush Limbaugh?

    2. Before Arsenal, he managed Nomaco.

       1. I believe he is pontificating to a learned sophistologian.

          1. Quite true 🙂

15. Help. My hysteria is all flapping. Can anybody do something

    1. Nomatization Disorder?

    2. I think there’s a cream for that.

       1. I’d try Oxycontin first.

16. I don’t get it. I can tell it’s a dig at NOMA, but what is the “M” in MOMA, and who are those two guys? I feel like I’m missing some context here.

    1. Ask Mr. Google.

    2. So MoMA isn’t that widely known?

       http://www.moma.org/

       1. Well, forgive me for not being American. 😛

          I get it now, though. Thanks.

          1. Well, that’s kind of refreshing. Europeans always seem to assume we US-ians will know about all their institutions. Antipodeans are usually more forgiving…

             1. Well, most of ours /have/ been around longer …

                /@

             2. Canadians know Americans know nothing about us. It’s how we are taking over the US entertainment industry.

             3. Lorne Greene, green card, coincidence?

       2. It has a good gift shop at San Fran airport.

17. This one makes him lose the in Between Punic War.

    1. One more Pyrrhic lyric like that and we’re done for.

       x

18. He’s such a boob!!

    1. To whom are you referring?

       1. If it was a “complete bust”,
          then by definition there must be two boobs!!

          1. So if they’re standing at a bust stop they must be in front of a sports bra.

19. Sub
