HOW DEEP IS YOUR PUN

I got an e-mail today from the Take That marketing people, offering me 'heavily discounted' tickets for their live shows this weekend.

The reason for the discount? The tickets have NO VIEW WHATSOEVER of the main stage! Apparently the 'restricted' view seats do have a view of the secondary stage where 40% of the performance supposedly takes place. Having brought this up with my colleagues, one came up with this fantastic pun:


EVERYTHING CHANGES BUT VIEW


My pun idea:

AT THE BACK FOR GOOD

Starface

A teenage girl is angry after she got 56 stars tattooed on her face. In fact, she's so peeved off at the tattooist that she's suing him. She claims she asked for three, fell asleep, and woke to discover an extra 53. Yeah right. Even if she gets them removed she'll still have lots of scars on her face, which isn't nice.

I do like a good tattoo-related pun.


The Sun goes with:

STARRED FOR LIFE

My pun idea:

STAR SPANGLED CLANGER
