As a grammar nazi, I slightly prefer no apostrophe where there should be one, as opposed to an aberrant apostrophe (eg “cauliflower’s are delicious with cheese sauce”).

I googled that, convinced it was a Grandpa Simpson quote. I was surprised to find it was, instead, from a movie (I’d never heard of).

It just makes me cry.  I only tried it once, a roomie made brownies and persuaded me to try one.  I don’t feel at all tempted to repeat the experiment :-(

Refrigerating the dough before baking is only for cakey (soft, chewy) cookies.

Because “the shot” sounds so much less violent?

Why?

Does bycatch include blobfish? Does Subway’s questionable tuna sandwich contain Ted Cruz DNA?

Everyone in Britain pronounces it Chia-batta, with some slight regional accent variations (southerners go for more of a bahta, northerners keep the “a” short). I can’t imagine any other way to say it? But then I say this as someone who gets filthy looks from Americans when I ask for brush-etta.

I remember going in the Before Times (like, last century). I’d pick a movie that had been out for months; a midweek, school-time showing. I’d go into the movie theatre and feel a rush of self-congratulatory joy, because there were only six other people in there already, spread out all over the auditorium. I would sit…

America’s Worst Couple is Shelton-Stefani?

I love the colour.  I don’t love the fabric-covered buttons, but at least they’re better than gold buttons with anchors on.  I’m kinda fussy about my buttons.

What do roofers, grocers and electrical contractors have against the infrastructure bill? I don’t get why they specifically would be disadvantaged by green energy, childcare, etc. Better internet would mean people ordering groceries online, which is good for grocers, no? Solar panels need roofs, they don’t replace…

I wouldn’t recognise a single “celebrity” Housewife if I my life depended on it.  I saw the header photo and thought it was Marjorie Taylor Greene.

YOU CAN BUY PRE-GRATED NUTMEG? Well I learned that today then. Why would anyone do that??

“Khloe is JV”?  What does that mean?  I googled it and nothing there made sense to me in the context of Kardashians on TV shows.

I don’t like the name “Garcelle”.  Garce, in French, means bitch.  Who names their baby girl “little bitch”??

I skipped my annual mammo last year; vaccination wasn’t a thing then, and I didn’t get a reminder, so I just skipped it. It was with trepidation that I just went last week; the tech said I’d get the letter with the results in 7-10 days. I got the letter a mere 3 days later, which scared the heck out of me. But it was…

I’m British, and up to 2001 had never visited the US. A friend was going there on holiday, and asked if I wanted anything particular brought back. I’d read about both, in books and magazines, so I asked for a twin pack of Hostess Twinkies, and a bar of Hershey’s. My friend brought back the goods. The unanimous verdict…

Celery is the only food flavour in the world that I’ve tried and can’t stand. Okra is the only food texture I can’t stand. “Slime that tastes like celery” sounds like an absolute winner :-(

You missed “male”.  The whole point of restrictive abortion legislation is to prove how much they hate women.
