I thought Farina was supposed to be a guy. And it appears that imdb agrees with me.

So, Big Boi isn’t copying Tintin, he’s got his own thang.But Andre 3000 does wear plus fours that are gathered in below the knee.

I, for one, found it amusing, given all the popular etymologies (like “pumpernickel” meaning pain for Nicole, Napoleans horse, and BS like that) going around. And who says you can’t make jokes in GQ?

That should have read pain pour Nicole up there.

Actually, I apparently have one more typo: the standard version is

Never heard the bon pour Nicol version.
:smack:
Snopes contains the bon pour Nicol one as well.

My apologies; I didn’t mean for you to read the whole section, just look at the right-hand image on the first page. Yes, it was a whoosh: the question had been asked and answered, and I was taking the piss out of bogus eytomologies like “For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge”.
