Oh, I'd love to hear what you'd say to Tamsen Donner! Seriously though, thanks for your kind words.

"But that’s what makes this a Big Blue Adventure, right?" This segment is totally OY worthy.

And in the urban dictionary, it leads with oy

(sense 1): Interjection signifying pain, weariness, disgust, resignation, etc. Very often part of oy vey or oy vas mir. Compare to English Jeez. (from Yiddish "oy", probably from old German; probably cognate to English "oh").
