Rod,

Think 'literary'
not 'literal'

This is a 'fluxlist' after all ;-)

BTW.

Canadians. Annoyingly conceited and much to full of ourselves, even if

What will happen to us if we don't know how many answers there are?
Will our heads explode?

That would be pretty cool.

  and the saying His shit don´t stink would become an insult.
  and the saying¨What an asshole. would become a compliment.
 
  So why would it be a compliment when people say, He´s the shit. in
  these
  times when shit is still worth nothing?
  Are they assholes? I´m confused...
 


 Work it Cecil, work it!

 OK, really the truth is...
 The Brazilian Proverb part is an adaptation of
 a Henry Miller quote which is:

 When shit becomes valuable, the poor will be born without assholes.

 So, he's the one to blame, I suppose, but quotes can be manipulated
 anyway, you choose. Like I said, there is more than one answer.
