Yes, well I wouldn't expect a member of the hoi polloi such as you to understand Greek.

Geez there Captain Pretentious. Well, the Greek word for friendship is Philos and I don't think you'll be living up to that word with snide remarks like that.

I had hoped it was obvious how relentlessly tongue in cheek I was being. Perhaps not. Ah well, such is life.

Oo!  Oo!  Now I can rant about the four types of love as given in the Greek language!

Agape:  Self-giving/divine love
Eros:  Romantic/sexual love
Philios:  Friendship (no matter what suffix Logan wants me to end it with) Wink
Storge:  Fondness/companionship/familial love
I love dogs, I've always loved dogs

I'm the only American I know who likes it.

Can we please derail this thread into being all about Marmite? That would make me so happy.

This Chicago boy has a jar in his cupboard!  The after-effect of living in Exeter, Devon in the early 1990's.  Lovely stuff, Marmite (and ELP).
