The State of the Onion (CTG)

First off, it stinks.
And there are so many layers,
no wonder nothing gets done.
Or undone.

Well done Chris :PDT_Aliboronz_24:

You know your onions! [an expression of UK origin, not sure whether it's used in the US?]

ONION: from about 1130AD - formed from the Anglo-Fr. word "Union" [meaning the joining of things] and from O.Fr. word "Oignon" from L. Unionem (nom. unio), colloquial rustic Roman for "a kind of onion".

Now, you really do know your onions!

Thank you, dazza. I didn't know that information about the onion so it's great to learn it.
