That’s not true, actually.  Not where I’m concerned.  You should all tell me your bad puns whenever they cross your mind.  Seriously, they are my delight.  I can’t help it.  I’ve got amazing taste.

For example, while writing a fairly intense scene today, the word “banhammer” got stuck in my head.  In internet communities, the banhammer is when a moderator comes in and kicks you out–pip, core, and all.  You do not pass go, you do not get to collect $200, you don’t get to troll anyone anymore….  It’s a Big Deal.  And now I can’t help but think of a scenario with an actual Banhammer.  In my head, it’d be about Thor.  I told this idea to my friends, and received encouragement instead of the condemnation I should have received.  They suggested a story of Odidn’t, the deity who can’t even (OH NO YOU DIDN’T!) and that nerf bats (another internet term, mostly for games) became deadly to the pantheon.

I think it’s out of my system now.  I can go back to writing about the Lady of Bones.  Oops!  Did I just say that out loud?
