Punctuation annoys most writers. Isn't it?
I will state one unequivocal thing about my colonic: I hated it! Please note that we have a colon used in a sentence referencing a colonic. I humbly suggest that usage like this henceforth be called a punctuation pun---just a thought that dashed through my brain.
“What are other examples of punctuation puns?” you might question markedly.
How about:
“There is no doubt. She missed her menstrual cycle. Period.”
“I hate you!” she exclaimed pointedly.
After knocking him to the ground, the martial artist killed him with a comma.
The possibilities become more fascinating if we also allow formatting puns.
“I don’t care what you think,” he boldly declared.
He was an indentured servant.
“The impending bankruptcy underlined the firm’s financial difficulties.
The business operated
on large margins.
The company was in dire need of CAPITAL INVESTMENT.
Is all of this just silly patter? Perhaps. But my hope is that at least some will find it amusing, and maybe even a bit

Hey there!
I am soooo guilty of doing most of those...
probably why it makes it so funny!!!
Keep it up, this was very enjoyable!!!
This was awesome!
This is very clever idea. I like how you tied everything into the main subjet of puns even though the examples were just examples. One question of something I didn't understand though. When you said: "He was an indentured servant" Was there supposed to be an indent there because I know that there's an issue with this website where you can't indent when you're typing something to publish. I was just wondering. But overall, great job!
Hey there laughmaster! Hadj here to review your exclamatory work! Maybe I'll even be bold enough to work in a few puns! Let me know if you find them!
Nitpicks
You're second sentence:
______________Is out of place
It doesn't fit with the tense of your first sentence
I would recommend something like:
Also:
You speled pattern wrong (or maybe this was some pun i didn't get)
Criticism
-Some bullet points may have helped for organization
-I would have liked more content!
Praise
Overall, great piece and very funny!
Well, gotta dash
