Fill yer boots pun lovers.

QuoteSeveral people made light of the spill, with one tweeting: "I went pasta that. Took a while for the traffic to ketchup."
Another joked: "And I imagine when it does reopen cars will have to passata slow speed?" Others said it was fortunate that the crash didn't take place at Spaghetti Junction.

Edit: My best effort 'several other drivers were caught up in the accident. They were described as uninjured but red faced'

steve98

Yeah but that's changing reality, isn't it? Your Edit? Because no other drivers were involved (and got red faces) , were they? None at all.
It's easy to make puns around a situation if you're allowed to willy-nilly fabricate bits of the situation... yeah? So, I'll make a pun about the spilled puree, if that's what you want, but I'll stick with the facts. Right then, pun comin' up.

Why don't they get SUPER MARIO to clean it up

Dr Rock

I hear the problem was the driver was over-tired as he had to get up at POTATO CLOCK. (Sometimes you might have potatoes and tomatoes eg patatas bravas)

I heard someone talking about this and saying it was all down to drivers not being able to CONCENTRATE on the road.

El Unicornio, mang

It caused a lot of traffic delay, motorists had to catch up (ketchup)

The alarm went off on the driver's pomodoro.

I wish more people were like you Rock, and offered an exclamation of what their puns/jokes mean, if they're a bit obscure. Well done.

Dr Rock

Yes, then everyone can join in on the giggles and larks.

Captain Z

The road has now fully reopened to traffic!

Apparently the recipe for the sauce was the Intellectual Property of a trendy new brand.

Hip IP Purée.

Dr Rock

The driver seemed badly injured, but bravely told onlookers 'OLIVE' ('I'll live' = olive oil was also involved in the spillage)

Hand Solo

There was a FORK in the ROAD
