A colander joke is:
“When making macaroni and cheese I didn’t use the colander long enough, and wife gave me a restraining order.”
The one-line saying was posted on Twitter on September 8, 2009.
“My wife just gave me a restraining order. Who knew there was a correct way to use a colander?” is a similar colander “restraining order” joke.
Wikipedia: Colander
A colander (or cullender) is a bowl-shaped kitchen utensil with holes in it used for draining food such as pasta or rice. A colander is also used to rinse vegetables.
The perforated nature of the colander allows liquid to drain through while retaining the solids inside. It is sometimes also called a pasta strainer or kitchen sieve.
