Take that, Aumann!

His answer: "Au, Mann!" ("au" means "ouch" in German, his original mother tongue). Aw man, bad puns are my personal demon (works phonetically). Amen to that being a bad case of nomen est omen.

Aumann must be rolling in his grave from disagreeing with all the misuses of his agreement theorem as applying in a social context. Figure of speech, since he's still alive.

ETA: Au-mann puns, the poor man's gold!
