Lettuce take a moment to acknowledge the reactions to U.K. Prime Minister Liz Truss resigning after just 44 days -- which, as Anthony Scaramucci joked, is roughly '4.1 Scaramuccis.' (Scaramucci was fired after just 10 days.)

The U.K.’s Conservative Party leader stepped down on Thursday after a tumultuous 44 days in office, making her the shortest-serving prime minister in British history.

And the puns were unbeleafable, with even supermarket chain Aldi weighing in by tweeting, “What a great day to be a lettuce.” Scaramucci tweeted, “Liz Truss lasted 4.1 Scaramuccis,” which collected almost 500 comments, more than 40,000 “likes” and more than 6,000 retweets in about an hour.
