It's Shrove Tuesday! A wonderful day when we meaninglessly attempt to make pancakes, give up, then pop to Sainsbury's to see if they've got any of the disastrously underwhelming pre-made ones left.

It's almost like we've forgotten the real reason behind this yearly celebration - posting jokes on Twitter! Here's a selection of some of the funniest #PancakeDay jokes we could find:

A crepe is just a pancake that spent a year studying abroad and wants everyone to know it. #PancakeDay

I always say I should make pancake jokes more often, but then only do them once a year when I realise how much hassle they are.

Or, if these don't take your fancy, go with the reliable old clichés: calling everyone "tossers", saying "flipping heck" and telling everyone that pancake day "really créped up on you".
