I Entered a Pun Competition. My Jokes Were Written by an AI Chatbot.

I heard the MC call my name and felt my legs carry me toward the stage. It was time to enter the Punderdome. I'd never competed in a pun contest, much less in front of hundreds of people at an event considered the Roman Colosseum of punditry. My stage presence could be described as lacking. I had done basically no preparation.
