puns

is this a pun, as well as a sexual innuendo? " are you two going to make music? No pun intended"
  

Top answer

Make music can be used to suggest sexual activity as well as the literal. That would make it a pun. And, normally, if someone says, "no pun intended," the pun, indeed was intended.

I wouldn't call it a pun, so I would not have added "No pun intended".

But then maybe I have a different idea of what a pun is.

CalifJimI think I prefer to call the music making remark a double entendre.
It's a thin line, but I can buy that.
Cheers!
