Welcome to Punday Monday!
New To Punday?
Pull up a stool, order a spiked PUNch, and get to know some of the regulars. I'm your PUNtender, @improv.
How To Make a Pun
This contest is open to everyone. Here's a handy dandy guide on how to make a pun: Learn to Pun
Rules for the PUN-test:
- If you hope to win a prize, your pun must be your original work
- Puns must be relevant to the topic of the week to win a prize, but they can be very loosely related.

Here is last week's Punday Monday, and all the puns that were eligible to win this week are in the comments!

Sponsors!
@improv/ @freewritehouse
I mean, am I a sponsor of my own contest? Yes? I guess? Also, because I’m involved in @freewritehouse and they’ve/we’ve hosted Punday Monday events over on that page, I’d like to suggest that they (we) are also a sponsor! Regardless, check out the @freewritehouse community!
@curie!
We are one of Curie’s chosen communities! Prizes have doubled in season 2, thanks to @curie’s sponsorship! Curie curators do tremendous work making sure unrecognized authors of quality content get recognized and rewarded! They do great work sifting through the heaps of posts to find the undiscovered gems.

Outside referrals that benefit me.
Coinbase:
Cryptocurrency investment wallet Join HERE and we’ll both get $10 of BTC
- Hot tip, I buy BTC on pro.coinbase.com, then send it to bittrex to trade for Steem and send steem to my wallet here. It’s the most efficient way with the fewest fees I’ve found. If you’ve found better, let me know. - I learned from someone else that buying LTC and sending it to bittrex then trading it for BTC then trading that for STEEM is the least-fees way. Can someone confirm?
Robinhood:
Investment platform buying/selling stocks Join HERE and we’ll both get a share of a stock (probably worth ~$4)

I had to work outside and the weather said it would be really cold. When I came in my pants, it was warm enough.

The winter solstice is almost upon us. That means that soon Odin will mount his mighty eight-legged stallion, Sleipnir, to bring toys and candies to all the good little boys and girls that have hung their stockings by the fire. A word of caution to adults that choose to be out under the night sky on this special night and risk being caught by Odin during his wild hunt. This is one night in which the All-Father definitely likes to HORSE around.

You're welcome! We're happy you're now a regular!
It's a bit early to pick 'winter' for Punday Monday. You should leave it on ice for a while. Save it for a Christmas treet.

As the weather cools off don't forget to BURN a few Pocket tokens tomorrow night at the Pocket Friday party. I have some extra tokens stacked up on my front porch if you need some, just let me know.
Ok, the POCKET Friday post is up! Please head over there and vote to make sure it does not get a FROSTY reception.
Ahhh! Thank you!!

Thanks! I'm having trouble thinking of winter puns. I got brain freeze!

Oh, you jokesters! Gotta anticipate the season, so that everybody is prepared on the first day with all the puns! Get your pun shopping done early!

Well it's a very helpful post. Thank you @improv
Every time I see your post, I so wish I would get the punning down. But for the most part, I have to read them over and over again to get them 🙈
