Please Pun Responsibly: A Laugh-Out-Loud Collection of True Stories from a Life Lived in Parentheses

"Please Pun Responsibly" is a laugh-out-loud collection of true stories from a life lived in parentheses, where wordplay isn't just a hobby-it's a coping mechanism. In this hilariously self-aware narrative non-fiction memoir, the author invites readers into a world where every awkward moment, social misfire, and adulting failure becomes the setup to a perfectly timed pun.

From traumatic dentist visits turned flossophical crises to workplace blunders that escalate into email pun wars, each chapter captures the comedy of real-life chaos with wit, heart, and just the right amount of grammatical overthinking. Whether it's a blind date gone literally dark, a mall cop misunderstanding, or a deep dive into the mystery of vanishing socks, the stories here explore what it means to live with anxiety, curiosity, and a pun addiction you're not quite ready to quit.

Perfect for fans of David Sedaris, Jenny Lawson, or anyone who's ever laughed at a dad joke and then questioned their life choices, "Please Pun Responsibly" is equal parts memoir, comedy, and linguistic mischief. It's the book that proves life doesn't have to make sense-as long as it makes you laugh.
