60/40

"Do you know what French slang for balls is? Les valseuses. The waltzers. Because they move around."

"Is that female? I mean feminine. Valseuses."

"Yes."

"Why is bollocks feminine in French?"

"We're definitely getting off the subject here."

"Testicules isn't. But valseuses is."

"Female bollocks. Trust the French."

"No wonder they didn't support the Iraq war."

"Not that anyone around this table did."

"I was sort of 60/40."

"How can you be 60/40 on something like Iraq? It's like being 60/40 on flat earth theory."

"I'm 60/40 on that, too."
