Anyway, I doubt you'll have a problem with finding a person to go to the corner store to buy you a pack of gum.

34. How can your ribbon kick my ribbon's arse (or indeed ass)
Given that it's made up of fists, and thus has no feet with which to kick? :shrug:

36. The use of "kick your ribbon's ass" in the generic sense of
"give your ribbon a severe beating" makes this possible.

But be warned - my ribbon's got some pretty tough seconds and thirds lined up for the fight, and they don't know the meaning of the phrase "Queensbury rules".

62. The Rules of Boxing.
First codified by the Marquis of Queenberry (I've seen both Queensbury and Queensberry used for the rules) for the purpose of stopping some of the more vicious and dangerous aspects of the sport. More generally taken to indicate a fair fight.

But definitely a crazy Brit here. :D

47. Nope, try again.
Some guy at work was claiming it was Galileo. I did not know who it was, but I knew it was not Galileo. He did make one a year or so later, without having seen the original, only having heard of it.
