Chianti and fava beans are the pairing for an asshole.

Colon is best with Mogan-David and camp style beans straight out of the can.

...ELA teacher had a sign like that.
Said:
"Commas Matter
Let's Eat, Grandma.
Let's Eat Grandma"
In that school, the teachers move from room to room instead of the kids, to keep hallway crowding down. So, I was in that room for 40 minutes 4 times this week.
I laughed every time I looked at it.
