I'm so confused. Oh well.
Damn...this is TAC-level (or me-level) stuff!
The Beatles did a song called "Glass Onion," which appears on the White Album. The song contains the following lyrics: "I told you about the walrus and me, man. You know that we're as close as can be, man. Well here's another clue for you all.
The walrus was Paul."
Hence, in quoting you, someone substituted "Paul" for "The Walrus" because, "[t]he walrus was Paul." Has nothing to do with cabbage.
Also, WTF are century eggs?!
