Now, what came to mind is a story about two bicycle fans meeting in the city. As for an easier handling of the story let´s name them A and B. A has bought a new bicycle and B wants to know about it.
See the dialogue:
A: Hi B.
B: Hi A, how does your new bike go?
A: It doesn´t go ....... it cycles.
B: Ah thanks for reminding me. And how does it cycle?
reply of A: It goes well.
Does anyone know other puns?

Ok, thank you, Zivi! :)
Hi Roman, yes language can be so ambiguous now and then. Thank you for sharing your example of what minds can make of talks. And thanks for offering the explanation in the same blog.
But when you like to confuse people now and then you should give them to guess what the mistake was.
ROFL Miss zzina,
gosh, thanks for providing me with this huge fun. I have been Rolling On the Floor Laughing for at least 5 mins.
So we cannot be friends just because I lack one Z? Darn, life sucks :-(
anyway thanks for that cute pictures.
Hi Zivi!
Yesterday my mom bought an apple tree and left it to lie in our bathroom until she returns home.
And this is a dialog between me and my elder brother, that came back from work, a little bit earlier than mom:
My brother:
What is the tree lying in our bathroom?
Me:
An apple tree. :)
My brother:
An apple tree? (wondering)
Me (interrupting his chain of thoughts):
Yes, did you expect to see a pear tree in our bathroom?
Of course he quickly got the whole situation and that's why he answered:
Well, not a pear tree, but at least something like a cherry tree or peach tree!
To be honest in Ukrainian language it sounds more funny, because that question "What is the tree lying in our bathroom?" means "What the heck is that tree doing in our bathroom?"
So I should have answered to him "Mom bought it in the morning and left it there. She will bring it to the village soon."
Hi Zivi!
I know some, but right now I can't recall any.
Thank you for sharing!
Ah, I know Mr. Grimm knows many puns :)
I found this:
Funny Conversation Between Two Friends After A Long Time
John: Hi Henry
Henry: Hi John, after a long time.
John: Yeah dude, where do you live now?
Henry: With my parents
John: Where do your parents live?
Henry: With me
John: Where do you all live?
Henry: Together
John: Dude don’t joke
Henry: I’m not joking dude
John: Ok, now tell me, where is your house?
Henry: Next to my neighbor’s house
John: Where is your neighbor’s house?
Henry: Next to my house
John: Grrrrrrr
What a minimalistic talk between men! How typical!
I'll try finding a similar conversation, too.
And here is the soundtrack for the movie version:
