I mean, that was a long time ago...
10 best puns of 1248!!!!

pdela, whenever you show up in my very important threads, all hell breaks loose! There is nothing second place Spanish about that picture. I imagine the oppressed, juggled cats are quite embarrassed about their disposition...

I thought those were very ugly hamsters, the psych dept of peta will be out for me now. Psychological cruelty to animals.
Actually that sounds like a real crime.

cats?????
I'm sorry. Are they cats or dogs? In any event, they are beings manipulated by some second place pdela...

May 15th - Archbishop Konrad v Hochstaden lays cornerstone for Koln cathedral
Aug 14th - Construction of Cologne Cathedral begun
Aug 25th - The Dutch city of Ommen receives city rights and fortification rights from Otto III, the Archbishop of Utrecht.
Nov 1st - Earl Willem II of Holland crowned as RC German emperor
Nov 23rd - Conquest of Seville by the Christian troops under King Ferdinand III of Castile.
Seems like there should be some sort of pun constructible based on that Dutch city...

they are dogs, but ugly hamsters works for me
I would be more confortable with spinsters rather than hamsters...Unmarried "beings" works for me

Let's use beings than. Covers all regions of "beings" be they: ET, chess piece, eunuch, animal, or wee roach.

I can't believe how off-topic this thread has become! Seriously, does anyone know any puns from 1248????????????

Well, you asked for it!
Did you know the fattest knight at King Arthur's round table was Sir Cumference? Yeah, he acquired his size from too much pi.
I actually don't know any puns from 1248...sorry...
