the phrase has been around a while. it's a handy "comeback" for artsy types who don't get much notice 'round home. doesn't work if you're japanese, of course.

I suppose for them it's maybe "big in Holland."

Anyways -- 'nother candy I want to try.
Wine gums.

Nope, chewy candy. It's British.

Hmmm...now I wonder what they call chewing gum.

They call it Chewing Gum, man... I have to go down the shops and get some jellies.

so like gummi or, say, "Jelly Babies"?

DON'T DO IT! They're disgusting! DX

Of course, that's just my humble opinion. >>;

humility is for the unenlightened! the world's problems would be solved if they just used BGN as the basis for all law.

& there would be more good candy too.

**ZOOLOGICAL RESEARCH**

You may recall the Cephalopodidae specimens I exhibited a while back:

Newly uncovered evidence indicates their range extends beyond the "Old Dutchman's Store" after all!

While not photographic, this technical illustration clearly shows the distinctive features of what, due to different coloration, is likely a subspecies which I have, for the sake of convenience, dubbed Octopus gummicus rikkii.
(official nomenclature will have to wait until the International Gelatinous Cephalopod Taxonomy and Nomenclature Committee's next meeting, currently not yet scheduled.)

More evidence here! http://www.tavicat.com/ranklechick_oog01/D5652E55-56F8-4E12-B2B3-C4B173D767CA.html

Also excellent observational studies of feline behaviour: http://rikkisimons.livejournal.com/44908.html
