It’s just possible I heard this wrong, but in a Quaker Oats commercial I just was half paying attention to, the “Grandma” character referred to someone, her son-in-law I suppose, as “a-dok-a baba” and there was a (suitably goofy looking) foreigner there indeed, so I guess I didn’t hear it wrong.
The term “a-dok-a” (pointy nose) doesn’t always bother me, but it seems like a bit too much here, do you think? I couldn’t find a copy of the ad on the tube or elsewhere unfortunately.
I had a flashcard of a long, aquiline nose that I placed over my own little Bjork-like nose the other day. Little bastards swore up and down that they were the same pointy nose. Buggers.
