  • Ramune. Old-fashioned carbonated drink named after lemonade. There’s a glass bead that gets trapped in the neck of the bottle when you open it and it rolls around and makes a pleasant ringing sound as you drink.

    Sounds like this are synonymous with cooling down in the summer and the concept of “Ryo” in Japanese culture.

    I like it, in moderation, and definitely in a glass bottle.

    Going with the Oxford’s first sense here…

    vul•gar vulgar | 'valgor | adjective lacking sophistication or good taste; unrefined

    The vulgar bit is the image of laughing Gus with a sweeping statement on wife beating in Islam.

    The passages dealing with how men should treat their wives vary among interpretations of the Quran, and there are vocal groups within Islam against domestic violence.
