    One time I decided to name an enemy faction based on a bad pun. I told the players the name was chosen intentionally, and one of them especially was doing some moderate research to try to figure it out. When I finally played the pun a year later, everyone groaned. It wasn’t even a good pun.

        “We publii can control the city! It will be terrible!”

        That is, “Republican control the city! It will be terrible!”
