      Yeah looking back, the joke could have been clearer.

        Yeah, I thought the joke was comparing hummus to dirt and I had some choice words. But comments cleared it up.

    Title is great since at least for me the font uses basically the same glyph for lowercase L and uppercase I.

    So maybe I’ll start pronouncing it Ollur. Or maybe OIIur?
