shrader Posted July 10, 2018 Report Posted July 10, 2018 I saw an election sign this weekend for a guy name Harry Ennis. I was amazed that the local teenagers hadn't already figured out the quick way to vandalize that sign, adding one letter and blacking out another. Quote

So if you're going to go the tennis route, you would instead have to call him ball. Sadly, that nickname is already claimed by Phil Kessel. 1 Quote

For instance, Yank rhymes with Tank, Septic Tank, so in the UK, Americans are referred to as "Septics". I can feel the love. I will admit that I'm not sure you can rhyme the first part of the phrase rather than the second, though. Quote

Trouble!" from Oceans 11 so Quote
