Attention Newspaper Writers: You Can Overuse A Pun

I was planning on continuing my thrilling series on government banning fast food and trans fats, which is one of the few (ok, a lot of) things that really irritate me. Then, I read the title of the article and decided to write about that instead, because bad humor irritates me too. And, why focus on one irritating thing?

The article was about California being the first state in America to ban trans fats. The title, you ask? "Hasta la Vista, Artery Cloggers! Arnie Terminates Trans Fats." Can I get a what, what? Honestly, that is by far one of the worst puns I have ever heard. Using lines from Schwarzenegger films in titles and calling him the "governator" was funny for about the first 20 minutes. After that, not so much. I mean, don't people know when a joke is over used? I guess not. It's time to get some new material here, newspaper writers. The news is almost ever changing, why can't your bad puns be too? Maybe if the writer only wrote one pun in there, I wouldn't be so mad. But, two. Seriously? Wow.

Not to critize the article (any more than I already have), but Arnie didn't actually make the law. Last time I checked (and this is my field of study in school), legislature writes the law. Last time I checked again, the governor is not in the legislature. Sure, he approved it and signed it into law, but even if he vetoed it, it could still become law. Alright, sure I'm getting nit picky here, but do you really want me going on and on about trans fats again? I didn't think so.
