Uncle Badger’s lemon
Uncle B grew this here lemon. This is no mean feat in the UK, even in a greenhouse.
A bit unlovely on the outside, but it’s a perfectly cromulent lemon.
See?

“What’s in a name?
“A rose by any other name would smell as cromulent!”

I had to look it up and then I had to use it in a sentence.

“Nevertheless since it was his, they et it, that’s what lemons is”
Congrats, wish I could manage to do something other than kill the lemon tree.

I growed a fungus under my toenail.
That’s about the best I’ve been able to manage.

“Cromulent”? Oliver Cromwell grew lemons? Huh. Did not know that.

Not being a strict Simpson’s fan I thought it was a careful nod to Conan’s “Crom!” though I didn’t think Crom specifically grew lemons.
turned out not. New word.
No worse than slithy vorpal swords demonstrating their jabberwock killing functionality I suppose.
At least it wasn’t a pack of consonants slammed together pretending to be a language.

Have a lemon tree with inedible fruit that idiots always steal. The lemons grow so large and with the pull of gravity they look like yuge grandma size pendulous breasts.

Bravo Uncle B!
