Are we not pure? “No, sir!” Panama’s moody Noriega brags. “It is garbage!” Irony dooms a man—a prisoner up to new era.

Wow.

A man, a plan, a Cadillac, a dairy motor, Oto, myriad, a call ID, a canal, Panama!

See thus: Noriega, sage, irons, uh, tees.

At the bakery, Emily tends to snub buns and stun odd donuts.

I gather she has a friend named Eve and another called Otto.
For some reason she seems to prefer to see them written in all caps.

Like this, then? THEM

I know she likes to drink with her friend Ronno Connor - they go the pub and murder a red rum.

Emily has high standards for musical events she attends in Wisconsin.

Tin Madison orchestra farts, eh, Cronos? I damn it!

Oh, I understood what you referred to. Twas joking on the "she seems to prefer to see them written in all caps." A dumb joke, yes.

And I'm trying to remember the name of a coworker many years ago whose entire name was a palindrome. Will post if it ever comes to me. You've probably noticed memory works better if you leave it alone for a few hours.

Believe it or not, Emily Lime has a sibling named Sohan Strawberry

I don't believe it. She has a brother named Mike Kim and a sister named Nell Allen.

Sohan Strawberry had to cough remove them cough

Through ethical means of course! 😁

This is now written law that Sohan strawberry is Emily Lime's sibling

This is the Brainteasers and Puzzles subsection. You're way off topic here.

Ok. =(

Meanwhile at the national zoo, Emily watched as...

One nudnik panda has nematode redo tame NSA, had napkin dune, no?

OK, officially ending my little sojourn in palindrome land. Weirdly addictive and somehow borderline dyslexia inducing. Hoping others may carry on, and with more coherence than I can muster. Adios, so Ida! Bonk a knob!

Though giving up palindromes for neurological safety reasons, I was recently reminded of mirrordromes, a word I invented to describe words which appear just the same in a mirror (or seen on a window decal from the inside). A nonsense example would be: donob (though the serif on the n spoils it slightly). Emily, alas, has little regard for mirrordromes. Her friend AVA, however, is more kindly disposed. If anyone has knowledge of AVA's preferences, feel free to share that.

She’s good friends with OTTO. And wow, her mom likes to TOOT.

AHA!

She's quite fond of TIT for TAT, plus MUM's her word, obviously.

Emily received an unpleasant invitation to drink with sexist Russian cosmonauts.

Stoli, primeval slave?

Emily recently got this disturbing message from a fertility clinic:

Cleveland sire suggests egg user is DNA, Level C.

Emily Lime likes a regal lager

Funny, I got this immediately. Not because I am super observant regarding palindromes, and not because I had just finished fiddling about with my rotavator.

I am a Mancunian and as a people, a tribe, we were raised on Joseph Holts beer.

Their lager was "Regal" lager, the joke was that it was not only spelt backwards it also tasted a bit backward.

Their beer wins awards these days but I will never forget Regal.

An extra fill-up, Regal Lager pull - I fart, Xena.

Naw, order not a tub Regal Lager, but a ton, Red Rowan.

Hen mad? Do glare, negotiator. Rapt, parrot AI to general goddamn, eh?

Did I swap God for a jalapeno, Nepal, a jar of dog paws? I did.

Emily weighs in on mammals and reptiles of the southwestern United States...

Martyr, accept peccary tram.

Er, God no, my armadillo doll, I dam Raymond ogre.
