How do you annoy a calculator? You push its buttons!
Any fan of bad puns and dad jokes typically loves it for the sport of hearing others groan, cuss, and otherwise chase them out of town with pitchforks. But sometimes it doesn't quite feel rewarding enough.

Enter the Pun Counter. A simple incentivizing device to reward yourself and encourage others to get in on the punning. It's got a nice big arcade button, a light-up screen showing your total crimes, and it plays a fun sound as an added pun-ctuation.

Additional features:
-While playing a sound, it also very briefly displays a laugh on the screen
-The count is saved to EEPROM so it will last after power-off (this will eventually kill the EEPROM, but I have yet to reach its limit)
