Fun! Now I'm hungry.
You know that second one's not a pun, right? A leg of lamb is actually the appendage of a baby sheep. There's no second meaning, there. The others were good, though.
I'm still laughing at #1.
Fun.
Fun.

Three of the four answers are clearly puns (plays on words).
I thought puns were disallowed since - being "humor" - they should be directed to another site.
My bro, Jay (Badbunee2), myself, and our Dad (the original BadBunnee) were either rejected or cautioned several times about not using puns, especially in the Rebus category.
Has that restriction been changed by Editorial fiat?
Or is it now being allowed just for Editors (MarcM is one)?
We would like to know since Dad (he died in 200 left a nice legacy of almost 1000 Rebuses in various stages of development - mostly just lists of possible words or phrases - and many of those could be construed - especially by picky Editors - as "puns".
If that isn't answered here in the comments page I'll send a note to the Editors.
Thanks

That one made me laugh.
I agree with 'Little Green Man', IMO they're silly puns! Never heard of pulled pork anyway.
The year is 2020, why are you re-sending me 2017 teasers now?
Smile Markw that's one of the newer ones they send.
I did not remember doing this one before. The first still made me literally laugh out loud when I read the answer. I could not figure it out.
I think it was a great teaser!
Pretty good. Silly dad jokes, but I laughed a bit.
Although the cow is "lying" down, not "laying" down. Come on, editors!
