    I once read that in WW2 the people charged with picking the names for military operations were specifically ordered not to include any names that might sound silly or offensive. No Operation Ice Cream Cone or Operation Hula Dancer.

    Need I say more?

      Operation Hula Dancer

      Hahaha, that sounds kinda nice…

      Like, instead of bombing, let’s instead overwhelm them by infectuous Hawaiian dancing, singing, delicious grilled seafood, etc.

      I WOULD HAVE JOINED, in that case. :D
