Did you see that a guy was arrested in Larnaca yesterday? He was walking around dangling his 'bits' in a pot of Greek dip.... they said they thought he must be a 'hummus-sexual'!! Boom Boom!!

Would be funny except



"The English word comes from Turkish humus meaning the hummus food dip or spread, which in turn comes from Arabic حمّص ḥummuṣ, in turn derived from ḥimmaṣ "chickpeas""



maybe change the airport for a better joke?

Phil,



I did change it.... didn't want to offend any Turkish Cypriot people so changed it to Greek!! Didn't realise that all jokes had to be historically accurate. Geezzzzzzz!!!



I appreciate the word origin info though....
