ohhh...you brought up memories of my crusty old English Lit. prof in college!

When we were reading Milton, the conversation turned to various names given to Satan and other devils...and Dr. Mood said, "Oh, by the way, did you realize that the name of one devil was the same as we now use to refer to sorority girls?"

when he got blank stares, he said.."You mean you've never heard of the Foul Fiend Flibbertigibbet?"

then he got baleful stares
