    And here we see the origin of the phrase, “Speak for yourself.”

    BTW, Fenyugreek, I could tell you what a swirlie is, but the definition would make your head swim. (You’ll get that after you look it up.)

    For Fenyugreek: It is when an alpha creature of a taller stature inverts and immerses the head of a weaker creature in a liquid mass usually utilized for the transport of waste products. The alpha then proceeeds to extricate said vessel of the liquid while still immersing the weaker one’s head. The result giving the weaker one’s hair a “swirled look” upon completition.

    There is a strip from Fox Trot by Bill Amend where his character Jason remarks: “Do most philosophers die in winter?” meaning, get out of the snow you moron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My goodness, well, there you have it! A swirlie indeed. I love my new country, if only for the amazing words.

    -Thanks-

    SherlockWatson: excellent pun.

    ForeverAllstar: Thanks ever for the definition. I cannot say I had ever heard of a swirlie whilst at Queen Ethelburga’s College, York.
