So I'm writing about a guy called Robert of Jerusalem. He's called "of Jerusalem" because he brought stuff back from Jerusalem. What are names/titles like "of Jerusalem" called? There's a term for it but I cannot remember it.

How 'bout "kumquat"?

Okay, really, it's not the word you're looking for, but it's really fun to say...

Go ahead...say it: Kumquat!

See? Your day's looking better already...

I have a friend who used to collect kumwuats. Turns out that they don't go bad, they just slowly shrivel up and look like shrunken heads.

Then you leave them in a public area when you leave college for a semester in Amsterdam and let everyone wonder what they are.
