The woman is from Ramer, TN, ironic how close that is to "Ramen". Coincidence? I think not!
 
2005-02-24 04:50:24 PM
Was she on the sauce?
 
2005-02-24 04:50:32 PM
naw it was 20 tons of ramen, it would be funny if it rained a lot when that happened. Tons of wet noodles.

Something about I-69 and a wet noodle, just begging for joke insertion...

/knows it's I-68

That's too far from me to get some free pasta. Meh. I'm out of manicotti too.

Dispatch, we need some Romano cheese, STAT!

These family reunions have just gotten way too big.

I don't know if these are funny anymore.

There's always trucks rolling over and spilling crap on the highway. Is pasta particularly funny? It might seem a little absurd that your commute was blocked by rigatoni, but it's not very funny in itself. Swap out honey, glue, sugar, all the rest, and we keep getting the same thing. Do we get a headline everytime a truck rolls over, spilling something?

Was he driving a big rig(atoni)?
 
2005-02-24 04:54:48 PM
did they build a bridge out of it for the truck to drive over?

This is FARK. They're always funny!

GROAN!

No, it was just a orzonary truck, but he WAS pasta-by several Angel Haired onlookers...
 
2005-02-24 04:57:58 PM
Fusille woman you. Did the pasta farfalle?

On top of spaghetti...

When some trucker sneezed...
 
2005-02-24 05:01:48 PM
Was it on the way to a pasta-tower contest?

Sugar's still funny.

Not to be a party pooper or anything but, it's physically impossible to load 20 tons of pasta on a single tractor trailer.

/I'm an idiot ^^^
 
2005-02-24 05:03:12 PM
Dawn Marie Roland, 36, Ramer, was operating a 2003 Freightliner westbound when the tractor-trailer drifted onto the shoulder near the six-mile marker and began running over the rumble strips. She reportedly overcorrected, causing the tractor-trailer to flip onto its side and strike the guardrail.

Just more evidence that women make lousy drivers.

"Not to be a party pooper or anything but, it's physically impossible to load 20 tons of pasta on a single tractor trailer. "

Maybe the pasta was cooked?

2005-02-24 05:06:23 PM
So..... when do we get that Tennessee icon?
 
2005-02-24 05:11:33 PM
Cooked or uncooked pasta?
 
2005-02-24 05:13:24 PM

2005-02-24 05:13:42 PM
...and in further news, mafia spotted in Friendsville, Tennessee. Must be for the atmosphere...

This is another example of a stupid trucker really fouling things up.

No doubt about it, this dumbassed trucker was asleep, was woken up, then panicked and overreacted.

As you read more about the trucking industry you will learn that this type of thing happens all the time.

It is in your best interest to have competent people driving trucks. Unfortunately this is not the case. The trucking industry is hurting for drivers because they will not pay.

They pay baboon wages and what are they getting to drive their trucks? That's right, smelly baboons.

Ever notice that truckers usually have an eternal dumb look on their faces?

Every trucker should be pulled over and forced to recite the alphabet backwards and forwards. Will be interesting to see how many can recite the alphabet.

That's just down the interstate from me. haha

I sense you might have a personal problem with truckers. Rubber duckies are your friend.
Or you work as a waitress and do not get much respect, well as a "woman"

Fellow Tennessean here.... Considering Tennessee stories have been outnumbering Florida stories about 2:1 lately, I think I'm going to have to second that call for the Tennessee tag.

This headline sucks ass.

Come'on. Where's that truckload of spaghetti sauce, truckload of chianti, and truck loaded with bread sticks when you need 'em?
 
2005-02-24 05:35:49 PM
No pasta?!

University students rejoice!
 
2005-02-24 05:37:41 PM
Oh, come one, somebody must've submitted this with a funnier headline.
 
2005-02-24 05:44:20 PM
If this lady wasn't one of them dope smokin' Pastafarians this accident would have never happened.
