My first thought on seeing the title of this thread was that it was about the Pink Panther theme tune.

Maybe I listen to too much saxophone music.

No, no, no...the Pink Panther tune is "dead ant, dead ant..." :trumpet:
Let us begin anew, remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness.

The only four-letter words that ends with "f" which comes to my mind is "barf".
You got three letters correct

_ARF :thumb:
That item is known as a Larf. Some of you may have heard the expression 'I'm just 'avin a Larf' used in English dramas by the lower orders, for example by a serving maid or Detective Chief Inspector in a Sherlock Holmes movie. This is their way of saying 'Just hand on a second, old bean, while I finish this delicious spot of tea'.

No, it's a Warf. As in a berth, to hold the vessel.

But nice try, John.

I think you're confusing the British with the Americans. We would never chuck our tea in a warf. Over here, it's seen as an alternative to the democratic process.

Brilliant!
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.

Nothing is as effective as homeopathy.

I'd rather listen to an hour of Abba than an hour of The Beatles.
