...Do we have a trope for the Hurricane of Puns version of this? A conversation where every sentence is a Double Entendre?
Doc Strangelove That would probably be considered a sub-trope.
...I think it's usually intended to point out a double entendre rather than be one on its own.
Doc Strangelove At least where I'm from, this has mostly become subverted to the point where now, it is used following a statement in which there is absolutely no chance of double meaning, with the sole purpose of confusing the other person.
...an eye doctor cupping one of Rocko's eyes in his hand and asking him to "cough, please"... What does this mean? I have no idea.
adam850: When a man goes to the doctor for a physical examination (for a job or sports) there is a part where the doctor checks for a hernia. This involves cupping the testes and having the patient turn their head and cough. There, aren't you glad you asked?

Can someone list some of the ones in The Grim Adventures Of Billy And Mandy there's some in the Getting Crap Past the Radar page and a link to more in the discussion page. I'd do it but I can't quite tell which ones count as double entendres.
RB 3: How about Bond girl names? Some of them are obvious Double Entendres like Xenia Onatopp and Holly Goodhead.
Document N: Someone's added "Three words: Bond. James Bond."; I think that about covers it.
Stm177: Deleted the Youtube link for Are you being served... it's not on youtube now.
- In The Painted Lady, Katara and Aang come back to camp at sunrise. Sokka wasn't happy about their 'morning walk'. They had been out all night to destory a factory.
Lale: Moved to Innocent Innuendo.
Ruthie A: Can some one please explain the double entendre in the phrase "that's what she said." I honestly don't get it... It just seems to me that the speaker is implying someone female said the same thing as the person who had just spoken (e.g. Bob: "Alice thinks I'm annoying." Charlie: "You worry what people think of you too much." Bob: "That's what she said."). I guess I'm just not dirty minded enough...

Where would the riddle go? The one where Arnold Schwarzeneggar has "a big one", the Pope doesn't use his, among others. The "innocent" answer is supposed to be... a last name!
- Also, when a guard is ordered to protect Mai, she replies with,"I don't need any protection." To which Zuko chuckles and replies, "Believe me she doesn't." Intentional or not, you will never hear that line the same again.
