OK, brace yourself, British pub headline coming. It’s a lulu.
They wrote this headline, even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious… If you say it loud enough, it always sounds precocious…. super frali… you know the rest.
You have to hand it to them, they had to really work to make a pun headline that intricate and horrible. This is the direct result of decades of really horrible tortured British pun headlines, a legacy of sprained constructions and ruptured rhymes all coming to horrible fruition in this one gem of a beaut of a nightmare.
Even as a lover of puns, I had to wince.
But it was, at least partly, a wince of admiration.
