It was a Hollywood movie! It has to be English.

Anyway, everybody knows you've always wanted for years to bring the word umlaut into the conversation, Barry 😛

No, no, that's coolats, not umlauts! Except maybe for that Gödellian stuff I loved so much in college. 😛

Jabberwocky.

Had to look up coolats, which are known as culottes here. They're revolting, talk about the worst of both worlds!

Gödellian too. Meh. Must read more.

Yes, they're notorious. The 70's and 80's had such great fashion sense... Still not as bad as umlauts though. 😀
