I skimmed David so maybe Ginger has answered. But one thing the French did was standardize their design. So every plant is essentially the same design (I presume with minor changes over the years as they learn from experience). So you have in depth knowledge developed over decades of how to build them right, and how to take care of them right. I think the design itself may be different, and Ginger can speak to that better than I can, but just standardizing it makes a huge difference in manufacturing quality and safety and maintenance.

So my friend has been asked to bring language-oriented to her etymology class this week. Like, jokes that rely on metaphor or euphemism. The assignment is kind of broad. Anybody have any good ones? They can be dirty as long as there is some kind of play on language.

Q: "What's worse than raining cats and dogs?"
A: "Hailing taxis."

It's not exactly a joke, but there's this:

Zoe: You sanguine about the kind of reception we're out to receive on an Alliance ship, captain?

Mal: Absolutely. What's "sanguine" mean?

Zoe: Sanguine: "Hopeful". Plus, point of interest, it also means "bloody".

Mal: Well, that pretty much covers all the options, don't it?

I'm not sure if this counts, but it is my favorite joke, so I'll tell it, you have to say it out loud, in a southern accent, or it doesn't really work.

3 Southern belles all have boyfriends named Bubba. This becomes confusing and is often the beginning of many arguments, so they decide nicknames are in order. They decide they will nick name their bubbas after soda pops.

The first belle says, "I'm gonna nickname my bubba...7-Up, 'cause he's 7 inches long and he's always up."

The second belle says, "Imma nickname my bubba Mountain Dew, 'cause that's all he wants to do is Mount'n'do."

The third belle is hemming and hawing and finally says, "I guess I'll nick name my bubba Jack Daniels."

The other two exclaim, "Sweetheart! You can't do that! That's not a soda pop, that's a hard liquor!"

And she says, "Yeah, I know."

That's a great joke, Daisy.

That reminds me of my favorite t-shirt:

"Let go of my ears; I know what I'm doing."

Ha!

What about the thing with "Where y'all from, bitch?"

I know a lot of terrible puns, but I don't know if that meets your criteria.

There's the one about two maggots fighting in dead Ernest.

Anything goes, I think! Thanks you guys!

That reminds me of my favorite t-shirt:

Do you get many comments when you wear it?
