Look, we get it. You are stuck in the woods. The WiFi is non-existent, the mosquitoes are eating you alive, and you are staring at a fire trying to avoid awkward silence with your friends. You came here looking for campfire jokes, and unfortunately, we delivered.
We have compiled a list of puns so bad they might actually put the fire out. Whether you need camping puns to annoy your family or funny camping jokes to distract yourself from the fact that you have to sleep on a rock, we have you covered. Sorry about this.

The Burning Questions
Here are some questions people actually ask about campfires, answered with zero helpfulness.

It comes from “bone fire,” which sounds way more metal than roasting marshmallows.
Can I sleep by the fire?
You can, but you might wake up without eyebrows. We recommend a tent.

Dry wood. Wet wood just smokes and complains, kind of like your friends.

Rub two sticks together for four hours and cry. Or just bring a lighter next time.

Absolutely not. It is pure sugar and charcoal. Enjoy.
The Person To Blame
Umer | Chief Regret Officer
Umer is the founder of PunSpill and a certified disappointment to his high school guidance counselor. He spends his days writing puns that make people groan and his nights arguing with Gerald, his emotional support opossum (and Head of HR).
He created this website because his friends muted him in the group chat. If you hated this article, please direct your complaints to the opossum; he handles the shredding.
I'm Umer. He's Gerald. I write the bad jokes; he handles the complaints (by sleeping). We created PunSpill so you have something to send your friends to annoy them. Read the full confession here.
