I've never heard any rhyming slang that didn't seem like a joke was being had at the expense of sanity, but I take your meaning. Thanks though, I knew it must be something along those lines

The one that gets me is "aris" as it's a two-stepper: Aristotle -> bottle -> bottle and glass -> arse. It also relies on the the southern pronunciation of "glass", as most ones for arse do (unlike Hagen Daas).

Days like this, I wish English was my first and zeroth language, rather than just my first.
