Puns

by Phil on Apr 24 2009 (1370 Views)

Angewandte is kind of famous (or infamous) for the puns in the graphical abstract subheadings. I came across this one:

Kaim, Hosmane, Záliscaron, Maguire and Lipscomb, ACIE, Early View: To “B” or not to “B”,

which is about average for an ACIE pun. Fair enough. Further down the page there was this one:

Winchester, Whitby and Shaffer, ACIE, Early View: To Bi or not to Bi.

Seriously, are we running out of puns?

I tried doing puns using the ChemFeeds abstracts, butI don’t think anyone “got them”. So I took it down.

Another one in the same issue is

“Gone up in frames”

It is funnier if you see that the authors are all Chinese.
