To return to Irish pop/folk singers of the early 70s, would Mr. O'Sullivan's duplicate sing "A clone again, unnaturally"?

Been racking my brain for a pun on ice cream cone.
Surely someone ???

As for clones in general, I think we need to clone Mel Gibson and Pierce Brosnan for starters. (Dibs)
Ladies?
Gentlemen?
Yeah we need to clone a few more of those, too. But it's meant as an invitation not a statement; all you literal-ies.

Actually, Betsy, one can make Eau de Clone by combining two identical hydrogen molecules with one oxygen molecule, and - bang! you've got water! Chemists invented cloning!

Now, if AnnaStrophic were to haul Larry Flynt down to Atlanta and genetically alter him by inserting a common Suthrin food staple gene into him, she could have some porn clone with supper.

Better to try to clone so as to replicate Chuckles the Clown; the one who perished so tragically when the elephant mistook him for a peanut.

"Just say 'no' to okra"

I used to like okra in chicken gumbo soup, but haven't had it for years. My wife hated the slimy consistency of it. Is that what makes the rest of you dislike it?

Grits is just one more type of cooked cereal, OK, but not a gourmet treat.

The only thing I had trouble with was "Philadelphia scrapple" I had to force myself to remember what my mother taught me about being polite when served that.

Did you hear the one about the priest who had a clone made of himself? The clone, however, turned out to be completely evil. To make a long story short, the priest felt incredibly guilty and decided he had to rid the world of this clone, so he took the clone out to a cliff and pushed him off. He then turned himself in to the police and was charged with ... making an obscene clone fall!

I like these:

Are the pope and his clone both infallible? What if they disagree
about something?

Can you clone Alan Greenspan, or does it have to be LIVING tissue?

If Larry King clones himself and interviews himself on his show,
wouldn't that pretty much make nuclear war something we could all look
forward to?

If I have sex with my clone, will I go blind?

If the DNA from the bloody glove were cloned and produced a baby O.J.
Simpson, then could we maybe get an actual guilty verdict?

If Hare Krishnas start cloning themselves, how will the rest of us
find out?

If you cloned Henry IV, would he be Henry V or Henry IV Jr. or wait,
Henry IV part II?

If Michael Jackson is cloned, is it against the law for him to play
with himself as a child?

If I have sex with my clone, will I go blind?

Anna, you are one cool grits!
But my opinion on the grain is that it looks and tastes like
a pile of waterlogged cardboard: a gray blob that oozes onto your plate, and just sits there sort of undulating...

Jackie opines: But my opinion on the grain is that it looks and tastes like a pile of waterlogged cardboard

And AnnaS responds: You just ain't never had 'em fixed right!

With a nice runny basil seasoned fried egg or two on the top with some pomegranate habaņero sauce and scrumble it all together with criss-cross action of your knife and fork.

Yum! yum!
