   Why would I insult a maiden? Was she working in the kitchen and spilled the baking supplies? Prehaps she needs to be de-floured?

   No, that would be what you did to a gardener who left her flowers distended.

    Speaking of eating… I remember that Gregory Nazianzen said, “with measured words I learn to bridle rage.” This really helped out one of his students who was sentenced to be thrown to the lions; although his anger at his treatment at first knew no bounds, he calmed himself, and was promptly disgorged.

    There’s an old drunken game that involves trying to continue the “dis-” jokes as long as possible, with basically the same rules as the Question Game from Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead. Much beloved by Spider Robinson fans. So for instance, a fired ambassador may find himself disconsolate…
