HA HA HA!!! Pro, that's the best I ever heard!

Sionnach, take heart. Wouldn't it be pretty awesome if Stevie Wonder and Britney Spears found your humble list via Google or some such, and started a Wordie account to argue with you? Come on. That prospect's worth a cupcake, at least.

I guess it's only a matter of time until I get objections from Britney and Stevie Wonder.

One that is popular in Italy is as useful as a holeless ass.

This reminds me of some variant of the "woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle" quotation. Also of three-dollar bills.

How about as useful as a solar-powered flashlight?
