… when I joined up here and asked who could come up with the three words in our language which end in “gry”, and _suffered so much abuse???_😉 Best decision I ever made. Thousands of international friends with whom I can “chat” anytime of the day or night. Thanks for hanging in there with me, even though somewhere along the line I went batshit on y’all!😃 Q ---

Yeah, it’s kinda like wandering into that strange _Three Stooges_ scene, and mentioning _Niagara Falls._ All hell breaks loose, and you don’t know why. [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/_yJBhzMWJCc/hqdefault.jpg "Three Stooges - Slowy i Turn") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yJBhzMWJCc) ---

> [@Quasimodem](#): > > :D:D:D:D > > There are only 2: angry and hungry. Actually, there is a common third word with gry at the end. It is of course, **gryphon**. The trick is that \*\*gry \*\*is on the front end instead of the back end. ---
