Ladies and Gentlemen, is rather sexist.
Philo, what's sexist about that ? It's classist yeah but sexist ? Those who have nothing more to worry about than this nonsensical PC crap I suggest go out into the real world & fend for yourself for a week rather than depend on our tax money.

I am into “oronyms” today. Here’s one for you; hope it helps! “There’s a bathroom on the right” “There’s a bad moon on the rise” Posted by diver dan, Wednesday, 9 February 2011 6:55:46 AM

An “oronym", diver dan?
>>“There’s a bathroom on the right” “There’s a bad moon on the rise”<< When they refer to popular songs, I have always called them mondegreens. http://wordinfo.info/unit/3347/ip:8/il:M But thank you for introducing me to the generic term, I hadn't come across it before..

Bucks and sheilas (close to a complaint).
But safer is;
OK you bunch of dags,
Pack of nurds, dills, Galahs, yobbos, deros, dunny rats .
and more unmentionables.
Easily an appropriatly safe greeting for every occasion!
