11. More damn 'synomyms' for those yin and yang body parts.

Can be wildly different (and funny or dangerous) across cultures, including the cryptic “that” and “there“

Recall Churchill’s V sign. My goodness.

And the ice hockey penalty for elbowing. Being of Italian descent, I laugh my ass off every time I see it.

I’ll continue to try to decrypt that FANNY sign, give or take some Scott-ism I am unaware of.

If I fail at that, guess I’ll have to create one of my own for said acronym.
