Me: That cranky guy's name is Allium?!?
...
Me: Isn't that the Latin word for GARLIC?!?
Wikipedia: Allium is a genus of monocotyledonous flowering plants that includes hundreds of species, including the cultivated onion, garlic, scallion, shallot, leek, and chives. The generic name Allium is the Latin word for garlic,[4][5] and the type species for the genus is Allium sativum which means "cultivated garlic".[6]
Me: HOW did I know THAT?!?
