"Tonight's Linguo-Cultural Realization"

Logically speaking, the (delicious, tender, easily barbecued) meat of the common Dìqiú pigchicken would be called porken. However, one cannot reasonably expect any Standard-speaker to say or even hear, e.g., the phrase "porken buns" with a straight face. --G. "What! That's what it's called!" -><- Benjamin D.

One dreads to think what they'd make of porken balls. Innuendo, mostly. --- "She's old, she's lame, she's barren too, // "She's not worth feed or hay, // "But I'll give her this," - he blew smoke at me - // "She was something in her day." -- Garnet Rogers, Small Victory FiMFiction.net: we might accept blatant porn involving the cast of My Little Pony but as God is my witness we have standards. |

The irony there is appealing, which is presumably the point, but still. Also: Corwin's favorite Toph face, narrowly edging her very similar "oh, it is on now, bitches" smirk. :) --G. -><- Benjamin D.
