Nez equals nose for mevrehah purposes, dickman
Back in high school my friend Lamm (the dickman) and I made a deal that if we were still friends many years later that one guy could say "Mev reh hah" and the other guy would have to remember that the correct response was to say nose.
23 or so years later the dickman and I were chatting and he said "mevrehah (pronounced Mev reh hah) and I thought for many seconds and finally replied "nez". He said WRONG. IT'S NOSE.
I think I should get credit for it because 1) I think nez means nose in French, and 2), more importantly, my brother and i created a dorky and insane language as kids (which we still use as middle age dorks) called Stinch (Stink) in which nez means nose.
I'm seeking your support. I'll try to get the dickman to attend this thread.
Thank you.

Manilow breaks his nose
Veteran singer Barry Manilow has revealed he has broken his nose after walking into a wall.
The star - who is almost as famous for the size of his nose as his hit songs - injured himself as he got up in the middle of the night while at his Californian home.
He said that in a sleep haze he managed to walk into a wall and knock himself out for four hours.
Keeping his sense of humour, he joked: "I may have to have my nose fixed, and with this nose, it's going to require major surgery."
The singer was at his Palm Springs home when the mishap happened after returning from a stay in Malibu where he was working on a new album for Bette Midler.
No lasting damage
He said that when he awoke in the night he thought he was still in Malibu and "veered to the left instead of the right and slammed right into the wall".
Manilow, 56, said that other than a broken nose, which was left swollen, there was no lasting damage following the accident.
He is continuing to work on Midler's tribute to the late Rosemary Clooney as well as making his own album, Two Nights Live.
Manilow started out working for Midler in the early 1970s as a pianist and musical director, before launching his own singing career.
Some of his biggest and most enduring hits include Mandy, Can't Smile Without You and Copacabana.

I guarantee I got beat up much less than Barry Manilow, and that I may have even beaten him (or his sister) up.

I can't believe this was once my favorite thread ever. I used to be so immature when I was in my late 40's.

I would answer, but I think it's a rhetorical question and I wouldn't want to spoil it.

I take your response as a tribute to me, Rollhead, because I am sure you were thinking of me when you said it because I wear a pair of these:
