The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for July 17, 2022

Holey Socks!!!

I’ve heard the expression Holy cannoli, but never holy ravioli.

Holy ravioli?

????

I was thinking more along the lines of ‘holy cannoli’ !!!

Is canned ravioli even legal in Italy?

If he’s going to pull from Ridgemont High, it should be All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I’m fine.

Having read comic books for 60 years I know that Holy Moly! was a favorite expression of Captain Marvel A.K.A. Shazam, also moly was a magic herb given to Odysseus by Hermes to protect from Circe’s magic.

Good thing there are no avocados around.

And while you’re at that, consider sainthood for Chef Boyardee, unofficial patron of canned pasta. There should be no trouble verifying miracles, as witness many harried housewives and mothers.

Nobody wants to admit they ate 9 cans of ravioli…

Canned ravioli can only be described as “Holy Sh*t”.

Holy Spicoli (“Fast Times at Ridgemont High”)

Holy Ravioli

Holy Goalie

Holy (Angelina) Jolie (“Mr. and Mrs. Smith”)

and Holy Pasta Salad, which is obviously wrong

I doubt the Pontiff, living in Rome, is going to open a can of ravioli… (which you cannot even find there)

“Holy Cow” No wait, that’s India!

Obviously referring to a great many cultural memes which leave me completely in the dark. :-)

Holy Aioli

the pope looks like he’s afraid of opening a can of worms…

Holy cannoli! Bada Bing Bada Bang!

Holy Mole’, the famous Oaxaca Mexico sauce

Is that what I think it is in the lower left? It doesn’t rhyme, but a classic nonetheless.

Jumping Jehoshaphat

Lower left corner is Holy Roly-poly (aka “pill bug”)

Holy roly poly, holy ravioli, holy cannoli, holy aioli, holy goalie, but I can’t figure out the TV or the movie poster.

Hot d.a.m.n ???

Sanctus Moly

Holy frijoles. :)

Chef Boyardee. Bring back the throwback recipes!

We of German extraction prefer beer flavored cannolis.

Holy mōlli!

Everyone seems to be focused on the pasta and the canned ravioli, with a few minor exceptions (e.g., Angelina Jolie, the pill bugs), but (and please excuse my naivete’) the party girls on the TV screen draw a blank with me (I almost said they were “over my head” but I won’t). Can someone please enlighten me (a strong hint is OK if a direct explanation is inappropriate for a Sunday morning family friendly website)?

What the heck is a moly, anyway?

If there was a rat on the table it would be: "Holy Vermincelli

How about giggity?

Hey, it’s Chef Boyareyoukidding!

I have read all the comments and stared at this scene for almost an hour taking each element separately and together and I just don’t get it. What’s the joke? Can anyone explain it to me? Please use small simple words so I can understand it.

Etiquette note: One does not address the Pope as “Pontiff,” but as “Your Holiness.” I would have been completely mortified if I had muffed that when he showed up at my door last year. It was a great honor, but do I look like I have any Grey Poupon? Ask the pigeons who keep decorating my car!

How about just adding cheese:

Holy mostaccioli… yum.

The olive oil, mayo, lemon, garlic, and eggs are for Caesar salad dressing. So, Holy Caesar!

I doubt that Pope Francis opens his own canned ravioli, especially when wearing his white liturgical robes. Someone else must do it for him.

By the way, I thought canned ravioli or spaghetti was great when I was 8 years old. Now, not so much…

Holy Macaroni ?

For the soccer game… Holy Goalie.

Uh-oh, SpaghettiOs!
