Fugu relevant? The name of any other fish? Is the type of article relevant? if yes, was it: a "best places to go for..."? an expose'? a review? (or reviews?) | ||

Fugu relevant? The Art of Fugu? No The name of any other fish? yes Is the type of article relevant? not really if yes, was it: a "best places to go for..."? this is closest an expose'? a review? (or reviews?) but it would work for the other ones just fine | ||

The word "sushi" relevant? Or a specific type of fish? A Japanese word? English? I'm guessing a pun is relevant? | ||

so: a specific type of fish appears in the headline? an 'english word' appears in the headline? a 'japanese word' appears in the headline? Are these the only words? only significant words? (i.e. other than 'the', 'of', 'and', etc.) the 'english word' = 'type of fish'? the 'japanese word' = 'type of fish'? the 'english word' that is relevent sounds like/ is spelt the same as/ means the same as the 'japanese word' that is relevent? a positive article? a negative article? relevent? | ||

so: a specific type of fish appears in the headline? it does an 'english word' appears in the headline? yes a 'japanese word' appears in the headline? yes, or a word of Japanese origin Are these the only words? no only significant words? (i.e. other than 'the', 'of', 'and', etc.) yes-ish the 'english word' = 'type of fish'? yes the 'japanese word' = 'type of fish'? no the 'english word' that is relevent sounds like/ is spelt the same as/ means the same as the 'japanese word' that is relevent? no a positive article? mostly this a negative article? relevent? no Can't resist throwing in a WAG: " The Real Mc Koi" Heheh! No, but the ingenious guesses are what makes it fun. Whale meat again, don't know where, don't know when ... Not that either. | ||

Is the fish found in UK waters? apparently so: Wikipedia says they are 'cosmopolitan', which sounds like you'd find them in boutique hotels, but hey Fresh? not as far as I know Saltwater? this one Is it a carp? no Is the japanese word one that commonly exists in english language e.g. Karaoke? Kamikaze? yes, it's a naturalised English word or is some knowledge of Japanese needed? none whatsoever | ||

Darn those social morays. An excellent addition to our growing list of pun headlines. They are brightening up the old plaice don't you think? |
