I think I read a word in one of the A.Word.A.Day's and I have tried to search for it in the archives.
I haven't had any luck and now I wonder if indeed such a word exists.
I am looking for a somewhat elegant word for a person who always (and I mean ALWAYS) has to make a pun based on your pun thus somehow improving yours. They try and "top" you but not in an aggressive way, it just comes naturally.
My Dad always did it (he was a master punster) and now my brother does it.
The difference is, Dad was funny; my brother is NOT.
Have you the word I want?
