Hey, leave me out of this. I've done *enough already to confuse the issue.  That's the last time I'll believe one of Max's jokes...

Remember, this is the same clown who got theUS/Canada border confused with the Nth/Sth. Korea border!
When was this?!In another thread, I said something about managing to impugn Americans on both sides of the 48th parallel, only to be reminded that the US/Canada border runs along the 49th, not the 48th. If, as now seems extremely unlikely, I remember correctly, the line of truce between the two Koreas runs along the 48th parallel.

¿Qué?OK. I looked up the two *definitions immediately, and finding out what Rapunzel has stated was true, I had 'no choice' but to believe that the game was afoot. Being the clown that I *am, I found that patience would be ' envious' in this situation, so shut-up I did. Then, since Faldage acquired my position (which was *clearly up for the taking), I then, backed into my own corner of confusion, opted for one last stab at ' humorousness'... yet, nothing beats a sweet Faulty Tower of Babel.

Aaah, all is made clear. Once again, the confusion has been caused by the simple error of crediting me with far too much wit!

I've been catching up with the category, and I find it hard to believe no one has gone down this road yet...
Bean? Sardinian sweets (piddu da mongia/gueffusu/nuns' farts...) Tell me more. Why would someone name a comestible so, and why would anyone eat it?

I think the idea is that a nuns are sweet, innocent, pure, and so their farts could be no different. These sweets are really just a combination of sugar, almonds, lemon, and Sambuca. (It is probably a little jab at religion at the same time. But when we were little we loved the name - because what kid doesn't like fart jokes?)

Oh, come now Max, to quote Bingley from the Amen, Anu thread.
"Just recognition where it's due, so calm down and let yourself bask in it."
