Subject: RE: BS: You say tomato...
'anaesthetist' ... I hear that as often as the long word. I really prefer it shorter.
But euphemisms are beyond help . Our grocery shelves are full of "bath tissue"...argghh.. I want to write to a couple of the manufacturers and complain.."Say, I tried your bath tissue, and it immediately fell apart and ruined my bath!" It's plain, simple **toilet paper**.... (and I have no idea what a 'bog' is, even though I get the reference.)
""... you will start driving on the left side with immediate effect."
Now now, be a little kind. Allow them to make this change gradually."
And just who is gonna change the 279,368,081 signs? (You are outnumbered world-wide on that, also.)
