Arnold Zwicky talks about The Mikado and buggery.


Build a man a fire and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life.

Oh, thank you for that! The Mikado is one of my favorite Gilbert and Sullivan's, and that's saying a lot because I love most of them (except for Yeoman of the Guard).

We don't use "bother" in the U.S. as an exclamation, though I know the British do. Winnie the Pooh had it all the time.
