Transcript of “Onion Sideways”
I just have to mention that I will never forget the moment that I realized that the word onion is zozo spelled sideways.
Zozo. Oh yeah. Zozo. Z-O hyphen Z-O. So the I becomes a hyphen turned sideways.
Right. Just turn your head and Zozo becomes onion. It’s an onion headline. You know, the satirical newspaper, area woman realizes onion spells Zozo turned sideways.
