And, as usual, presented without context:
“It’s like crawfish bukakke. And, y’know, ‘Crawfish Bukakke’ would be a pretty good name for a band.”
{laughter subsides}
“You’re determined to ruin everything I enjoy, aren’t you?”
“….you enjoy crawfish bukakke?”
{longer period for laughter to subside}
“I’m visualizing the little eggs squirting. You got roe’d!”

(And if you insist on putting names to everything…. here ;)

    Off topic but very nerdish:

    If you have even a pair of binocs or a cheap telescope, you can set up a projection rig to watch it:

    ( for the annular eclipse last month, I just used a low power eyepiece on my 12 reflector, and a sheet of white construction paper … it doesn’t have to be fancy )

    Don’t miss it … the next transit is in 2117.

    Does it count for anything that I had to look up that oriental term?

    I personally think you may be on to a winner judiciously applied. I for one find, on going out for a meal with friends, that discussing whatever disgusting bodily functions I have witnessed (meaning seen, smelled, ducked in time not to get covered in, and occasionally had my uniform sent away for washing in a biohazard bag - thankfully not that one though, I think my ‘rugged good looks’ [no laughing!] would put off anyone contemplating such a thing, well that and the fact that I carry a large number of sharp objects and know all the sensitive anatomical areas of a potential miscreant) that shift, is a useful means of testing said friends intestinal fortitude. All mine fail miserably I’m afraid and seem to go a bit ‘off their food’ - Yeah, free seconds (as a nurse one must learn these methods of feeding oneself cheaply and healthily you know).
