I hope Charlie doesn't mind me copying this here, it's my comment on Facebook:
I genuinely had a conversation with Christine about big boobs once. I said something along the lines of "I'm one of those people that likes girls with big tits, or as they're also known, men!"
Anyone else find that ambiguous?
If you cut a gandiseeg in half, do you get two gandiseegs or two halves of a gandiseeg?
