> Even sillier is LOGO's alternative to CAR and CDR: FIRST and BUTFIRST. As in "BUTFIRST recursion" (giggle).

Frosh-level CS classes may introduce linked lists as classes in some OO programming language -- often with the accessor methods getHead() and getTail(). Huh huh huh huh huh.

You'd think CAR and CDR, being abstruse acronyms steeped in technical language, would be immune from this sort of unfortunate double entendre, but no: my AI class professor had an Eastern European accent and pronounced CDR like "cooter".
