Ok, so I'll confess that I'm on the fence on the subject of puns. Sometimes, I LOVE a good pun (or a bad one, depending on your POV) and others I can take it/leave it.
That said, I know there is a rich tradition of puns in gaming (tabletop/video/MMO/etc) and I'd like to hear everyone ring in with their favorite/least favorite/most godsawful puns.
With that said, I'll share one that has very little to do with gaming, but came up during a Shadowrun v1 game that I ran a very very long time ago.
<begin pun>
Now you may or may not be familiar with the concept of "Blue Ice", but the fact of the matter is that it sometimes happens.
Moreover, sometimes it's lethal. Imagine, if you will, a piece of this blue discharge hurtling down from flight altitudes and striking a hapless individual. One day, it happened. Crashed through a person's roof, slamming into them and rendering them VERY dead.
When the CSI was done and the cause of death was declared, the detective in charge wrote it off as "Cause of death = Icy BM"
