Puns, play on words, and dad-type jokes always make us laugh, or at least make us smile and shake our head a bit. These "so-bad-they're-hilarious" type of one-liners have steadily increased in popularity and usage. In fact, puns have become so well-loved that back in 1947 it officially morphed with the word "funny" to form the super-word "punny", thus cementing the comedic qualities of puns eternally.

An avid prophet of the pun myself, I've been keeping close track of the best social media pun accounts to follow to fullfill my daily pun intake. This never-ending search led me to conceptual artist and humor illustrator Nabhan Al Abdullatif.

Here are my favorite 10 pieces of Nabhan's. I highly recommend giving his Instagram account a peep and checking out more of his rad art here!

I think all cell phones suck in general but, hey, that's not my call.
