I'm Finnish, and did the language map test. It went from being all dark blue at times to giving me Honolulu, Fort Lauderdale and Pembroke Pines. What the hell does this mean, that I'm a retired islander?

It's the "inverted" that is confusing me. If you turn the box over, are they still inverted?

Not to kill the joke, but it's inverted so that when it's cooked/fried it curls outward in the way that normal calamari do. It's "imitation calamari" and if you eat calamari from cheap restaurants there's a good chance you've tasted sweet, juicy pig rear end in a top hat. http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/484/transcript

It's "imitation calamari" and if you eat calamari from cheap restaurants there's a good chance you've tasted sweet, juicy pig rear end in a top hat. He says it's possible but he was unable to ever find an example of anyone admitting to having sold fried hog rear end in a top hat, or proof of any kind it was a common practice. He got called a racist for asking a anthropologist in china who spent 40 years studying chinese food. He just fried up some hog rear end in a top hat and they couldn't tell which was real calimari or not after it was deep fried to hell and back.
