Because books.

I would eat hummus on a plain bagel. But I also call currant-less scones are still scones. I think it's more about the dough and the shape than what is or isn't in them.

I'm really not looking forward to flying the next time I have to.

Good freaking lord.

That's what bothers me about the passport thing. Sure, now it's just people that can't otherwise prove their citizenship, but what will it be 5 years from now?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

(I feel like that's a quote from something. Anyone?)

I recall George Clooney saying that on Friends.

Amusingly, any time you see a reference to a chickpea in an ancient Greek comedy, it's probably a dirty joke about the clitoris.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hold up. Wikipedia tells me those are what are generally called "currants" anyway: [link] So one would be safe calling their current scones authentic with the Zante currants in.

OH! That wikipedia page reminds me -- ita, is bun and cheese an Easter thing? I saw that on someone's Facebook page, and now I wish I had had some this weekend.

The Greeks also had a verb (which appears only in comedy, natch) which I first encountered defined as "to shove a radish up the fundament."
