is one who takes pictures of his enemies?
This joke is an invalid syllogism where the listener is expected to understand the fallacy and to laugh at the non-reasoning. The most straightforward way to account for the possibility of inadvertent puns is to say that whenever we use a word, all of its possible significances--serious and non serious--are put into play. Surprising as this result is, I suppose it is no surprise to discover that if you begin with inadvertent significance, you will end by denying that anyone is master of the language they speak.
