Huhuhuhuh butt. Is what you'd say if you were childishly amused by the name of a perfectly normal sandwich.

Hear ye, hear ye! Is apparently not something that Lord Mayors say but I really thought it was. Maybe I was thinking of town criers but now I'm not even sure if they say that there. I'm mostly thinking of Homer in that one Simpsons episode, I guess. Our friend Mattie Lubchansky is back to discuss Fraudulent Fred Ferkel, Christmas crackers, and crazy-ass roundabouts before we learn what a Lord Mayo...

GREASE ME UP!
