Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

I think Oleo was a brand name that wound up like Xerox or Band Aids or Saltines.

While it may have been a brand name (I don't know for sure), the word oleo is a shortened form of oleomargarine, which was the butter substitute invented by a French chemist at the request of Napoleon.

Napoleon wanted a butter substitute that would go bad, for use by the army and the lower classes.

The word oleo is derived from the term "oleic acid," which basically means "oil."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I assume you mean " not go bad." Or did Napoleon just hate the army and the lower classes?

!!!?!?!?!?!

I'm guessing with all the new fast food joints going in across the street, its building was looking sad and trashy. So they're replacing it with something that's all new and fancy and looks just like the new places across the street...
