Rhyme of the day?

According to Wikipedia, and contrary to popular myth, the word "purple" does rhyme with two other words in the English language: "hurple" and "curple". "Hurple" means to walk lamely or to hobble. In my opinion, "Curple" shouldn't even count because it is Scottish - but maybe it should count because it means the buttocks of a horse (i.e., a horse's ass). SO what have we learned? If your friend is wearning a purple shirt and does something stupid that pisses you off, you can call your friend a "purple curple," and then, if you have the type of relationship with your friend where this kind of behavior is accepted, you can give your "purple curple" friend a purple nurple...although that would really just make you a curple too (imo). Obviously, if your friend also walks with a limp...forget it.
