A Hole Lot of Questions
You have questions. We have answers that are only marginally helpful.
What is a funny quote about donuts?
“I donut care” is the classic go-to, but “You drive me glazy” shows you have a little more sophistication.
How do you describe a donut in a funny way?
It is basically a cake that gave up on being a cake and decided to get a tan in a fryer.
What is a good pun for a bakery?
“Knead for Speed” is good if you deliver fast. Otherwise, just stick with “Nice Buns.”
Are donuts just gay bagels?
No, bagels are boiled. Donuts are fried. They are totally different lifestyles, but they can still be friends.
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.
