Why can't she have it without spam?

Those are the meals on the menu and there are absolutely no substitutions. The management is firm on this. Now are you going pick one or do I need to call the cook. We don’t mollycoddle people here.

Bloody Vikings!

Because the bacon is cursed. But it comes with free spam!

The spam is also cursed.

:smack:

Ya know. a skit about that would’ve really worked in SNL’s early days!

Did they have Cokes or Pepsi?

BrainGlutton, You are my hero for the day.

Beans are off!

I’ve seen that “are off” phrase before but I’m not clear what it means. “We’re out of them”?

Nobody wants to eat walkie-talkies.

I love it!

Now if you’ll pardon me, I’m going to stop by a local establishment for some cheesy comestibles…

I’ve always assumed it to mean they’re spoiled. But I have no other context than this sketch. I just enjoy that line.

Beg pardon? :confused:

It doesn’t matter, we’re all out of cheese – the cat ate it.

No, “off” means unavailable. I assume that it’s short for “off the menu”. It could be because they’re spoiled, but it’s more likely to be because they’ve run out, or forgot to order them today.

Now, if the kipper were off, it might still be avaialable but I would avoid ordering it.

Spam has one big similarity with comedy: you should never watch it being made.

Albatross!!

Why not? In fact, I’m in the mood for exactly that for breakfast right now. With a slice of toast, a bowl of Banana Nut Cheerios, and a nice cuppa coffee.

Anyway, this thread could use a little music from Weird Al.

Does it come with wafers?

Dead Indian!

McDonald’s has a Quarter Pounder with Cheese on the menu, but no Quarter Pounder. So I have to order a “Quarter Pounder with Cheese WITHOUT CHEESE.”

Similarly Burger King has been selling their double cheeseburgers for $1, but their double hamburgers are more expensive. So to get the cheaper price I have to order a “double cheeseburger with no cheese.”

What flavour is it?
