Sorry, I can't resist. From Adam Sandler's "Lunchlady Land":
"Hoagies and Grinders,
Hoagies and Grinders
Navy beans, navy beans
Meatloaf sandwich!"
And then that great line with "Sloppy Joes, Slop-Sloppy Joes, yeah!".
Amazing just how many connections, how much learning we soak up, from
music. My kids didn't know what hoagies or grinders were. I'm not
real sure how *I* know (living in south eastern VA for most of my
life)...maybe my friend who moved to VA from NY told me.
Anyway, that song is funny, if you've never heard it. Fairly tame,
too, for an Adam Sandler song! :-)

Something in my own place

Smiling, I feel no disgrace

This is exactly what I thought of! Although to me, the funny part is
Chris Farley AS the Lunch Lady. Anyone interested, here is the video -
