Ross Thomas was a Washington reporter turned crime novelist. At one point he was given a list of words that he should shun because they were offensive.
One of the words was 'Dwarf' and another was "Chinaman.'
His next two novels were "The Eighth Dwarf," and "Chinaman's Chance."
True, unless that xor wasn't a typo, in which case all seven of them aren't those things.
No, wait, I got that backwards. It would still be 4 (ignoring the fact that an xor can't have three inputs, anyway). (Fuck it. It's been too long since I've needed to know this shit. I need another beer.)

I’m so glad none of the dwarves were called “Sexy”. 😬
Only four of them aren't those things.

(ignoring the fact that an xor can't have three inputs, anyway). (Fuck it. It's been too long since I've needed to know this shit. I need another beer.)No worries. Even as I hit the submit button, I knew there was a good chance that I had it completely wrong but I took the chance.
