Joke of the week [445 = year 9, #29] "Geddit?" (16) (January 24, 2011 - January 30, 2011)

Customer: "And what is this supposed to be?" complained an angry customer at a local café, pointing to the squashed doughnut on his plate.
Waiter: "It's what you ordered, sir," the waiter replied, not hiding his surprise. "I carried out your order to the letter: 'Bring me a coffee and a doughnut and step on it
*!'"
* pun on the literal versus the idiomatic meaning of "to step on it"
