Are we approaching this from etymology or pronunciation?     As in potato bread or garlic bread?

Potato-garlic bread?

Not always. I think it adds an extra layer of funny knowing what the lunch is saying back.

A WOMAN in the US has become the laughing stock of the internet after revealing she has spent the past few days mistakenly washing her hands with a block of cheese, rather than a bar of soap.

Heard on the internet:

 

Breaking news : Germany is now advising people to stock up on cheese and sausages.

This is called the Wurst Käse scenario...

 

@Duvel?

Please, please could we have a groan emoji?

Disclaimer: It was not me. I love cheese entirely too much to attempt to wash my hands with it. And I don't think I've ever been drunk enough to mistake cheese for soap.

 

I just thought it was a good spot to drop in my favorite Lewis Grizzard quote.

Earlier today I bought a can of Cento white clam sauce. Later today, I noticed this on the side of the can:

I had no idea one actually caught clams. I'm imagining a Discovery Channel series, "The Least Dangerous Catch."

 

Oh, and of course we have to be warned:

My son shared this last night, with a comment that he hears these terms in the voices of Pippin and Merry...

Went down the rabbit hole of Joseph's Machines...brilliant...shared with many in isolation.  I wonder if he shares his household with anyone....no room really.  But nonetheless, a good pass time for those unable to go out 🤪

I loved the "pass the salt in times of social distancing" one. Yeah. I don't normally watch these things much but times have changed!
