A situation in which two or more people trade an ever-escalating quantity of puns on a given topic, ending only when all except one have quit due to tiredness/boredom/psychosis/etc.
(Upon seeing that it's snowing outside)
Person A: "Snow it begins!"
Person B: "Snow comment."
Person A: "Why do you have to be snow cynical? If you don't like it, you could at least flake it."
Person B: "Whoa! Don't get flurrious with me just because you can't sleet things from my point of view."
Person A: "I have to admit: I wasn't expecting such a chilly reception. Anyway, you may be a bit of an ice queen right now, but I bet you'll warm up to things eventually."
Person B: "... You win."
Person A: "Ha! In pun-upmanship, there can only be pun!"
Person A: "Snow it begins!"
Person B: "Snow comment."

Get the pun-upmanshipmug. 
Mark: "I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger... then it hit me."
Susan: "Show me a piano falling down a mineshaft and I'll show you A-flat minor."
Mark: "To write with a broken pencil is pointless.."
Susan: "Did you hear about the guy who got hit in the head with a can of soda? He was lucky it was a soft drink."
Mark: "uhh-"
Susan: "A hungry traveller comes upon a monastery and is taken into the kitchens. Upon entering he sees a monk frying chips. 'Are you the friar?' he asks. 'No, I'm the chip monk"
Mark: gasp... You are Atilla the Pun!

Get the Atilla the Punmug. When someone is so good at making puns, and pissing you off, that they have earned the title of Pun Master. Normally Pun Masters are very proud of this title, but other people see nothing from it other than shame.

Get the Pun Mastermug. An mc that is incredibly lyrical that it boggles the mind but yet for some reason certain people are blind to it, so it's unnoticed.

Get the Big Punmug. AMERICAN PHRASE, widely considered by some to be a cliché. Two uses of this phrase.
#1. "No pun intended!" Is a clarification you make after a remark you uttered that DID indeed contain a pun. You exclaim, "No pun intended" because you honestly did mean to construct the setence to contain a pun.
#2 The second meaning of, "no pun intended" can be tongue-in-cheek or more harshly put, untruthful. In this instance a person purposely inserted the pun. The motivations for doing so vary. Some reasons include: doing it to be humerous, attempting to be clever, wanting to engage in word play, or doing so to annoy people who hate puns. They fib by saying, "No pun intended!" because: they want to avoid embarrassment after no one laughed, escape retribution from those they annoyed on purpose or perhaps they feel foolish for making the pun at all.

#1 Pun WITHOUT intent. "That pistol is so tiny looks like he could be a son of a gun. Sorry, no pun intented!"
#2 Pun WITH intent: "Look at that duck. Hope he has a lot of money just look at the size of his BILL! Ha, ha, ha! No pun intended, right guys?"
