What Does This Internet Slang Means?

[Dre]

What the hell is <b></b>? and what does no pun intended mean? I'm not up to date with some of this new internet slang shit.

Not sure bout <b></b> but No Pun Intended means that if some one has a gimmick and you use their gimmick in a sentence you say No Pun Intended. For instance.

Vince: Welcome to WWE and this week we are breaking down the walls of violence. No pun intended Jericho.

[El Joo Magnifico]

Its not slang, its to bold text. When the spoiler site i go to has results, they sometimes fuck it up.

Ya, the bb stuff is codes. No pun intended just means when something can be taken as a joke, because of the way it's written, but it's not meant to be a joke.

 

[★Chuck Zombie★]

A pun (or paronomasia) is a phrase that deliberately exploits confusion between similar-sounding words for humorous or rhetorical effect.

So when someone says no pun intended, there is a pun in their sentence, but it wasn't intentional.

An example of a pun would be like in Austin Powers when the guy got his head eaten by the sea bass and Mike Meyers said, "He'll never get ahead in life." and "Not a good time to lose ones head."

Check this out as well.


And the <b></b> is the html tag for bold.
