A favourite bottom level joke of children in Sweden is...
Two tomatoes were crossing the road
.
One got run over by a car.
The other tomato said,
Come on, ketchup, let's go.
I'm still not sure why it's funny.

If it was in English, I'd wonder if it meant "catch up" but I doubt that works in Swedish. Thanks though!

Yeah, that would make some sort of sense... strange creatures, children...
I forgot to say, that I enjoyed the entry! It's the kind that I like!

Yes, that's it. Ketchup sounds just like 'catch up' but I can imagine it loses something in translation.
