A New Sub-species of Hero

Kid Akimbo and Fkatulence Girl -- together, they fight crime!

Seriously -- that kid is like the Platonic Ideal of "standing akimbo". Print this picture out and keep it, so that if anyone ever asks you "Akimbo? What does that mean?" you can show them and say "That's what akimbo means, Jack! No, I don't know why she's doing that with her skirt. Worms, perhaps."

At the height of the Great Elastic Shortage, children would spend hours every day just holding their knickers up.

I love the word akimbo! I never get to used it, though, so I tend to stand akimbo now. The joke, of course, is that it doesn't actually help me get to say "akimbo" at all.

And I had worms once, and yeah, that's how I was standing the whole time.
