Nah, you're right. It's only 90 percent of the French that give the rest a bad name.

Gilbert and Sullivan, it is said, changed the title of their opera "Ruddygore" to "Ruddigore", due to claims that "ruddy" was too similar to the then-taboo curse word "bloody".

Gilbert's response to being told they meant the same thing was: "Not at all, for that would mean that if I said that I admired your ruddy countenance, which I do, I would be saying that I liked your bloody cheek, which I don't."
