My friends on road trips used to enjoy “What’s that up in the road? A head?”. (Oops, accidental repeat from 25 May.)
Also fun on road trips: Look out, there’s a fork in the road!
TBH, I’m not entirely sure if “branch” in the last panel is actually intended as a pun.
I think we have in the past counted literalizing figures of speech as a kind of generalized language-play, that can fall under the OY umbrella. But this is a bit long would weigh down the Saturday Morning OYs list, so here it is as a bonus, just to enjoy for itself.
My guesses are that the Sporkula and Foon are made up, and that the Foodle was intended that way but in fact exists, under some other name. I think I’ve seen it used for lifting and serving spaghetti.
So clever! (But we may have to watch out for the pronunciation-guide people.)
