All are brilliant, but P.J. Piehole’s was later immortalized in RT’s Cul de Sac (presumably after they beefed up the crayon supply)

The advertised Marmite was actually Vegemite.

P.J. Piehole’s? Really? No one eats the relish anyway, they just push it to the side under a piece of ham fat. And purple and black are all any kid needs these days.

My Norwegian dad always claimed the Vikings got around, and that’s why he looked Greek.

Every time I go to P.J.’s, the only crayons they have left are Magenta, Burnt Sienna, and White.

Ironically, while Googling “P.J. Piehold” I found an obscure Romance Novel which used the phrase: “Shut your piehole, P.J.” I thought it was reference to the movie “Office Space” because of the reference to the smiley face button.

I bet that the Norwegian sous-chef was serving faux feta, too!
I approve these closings, especially of the phony taverna!
