I had a customer once give me a half hour lecture about saying “PIN number” instead of “PIN” because PIN already means “personal identification number” and he thought I was being redundant… I just turned his volume down until he was finished lol
It’s always fun to introduce someone to RAS syndrome, although your definition of fun may vary from mine.
You’ve never had to enter a PIN number into an ATM machine?
Once. I needed to buy some au jus sauce and a sombrero hat.
The guy: under his breath “phew, it worked!”
That hand…
Those hands. I knew I’d seen them somewhere before!
Author is clearly doing this just to fuck with us.
“Chai tea” means tea tea!
“Chai tea” means tea tea!
You have to say it like this: “Well, actually…pause…Chai tea means tea tea!” ;)
I love to drink
chichai tea when I eat queso cheese.Fuck, I can’t be spelling things wrong in this thread.
And naan means bread.
And kielbasa means sausage.
I thought naan was a kind of bread?
And chai is a kind of tea.
Yeah well they were pretty shortsighted calling that specific plant “tea” when there are plenty of different varieties of plants out there that can be used to make tea. That’d be like referring to one specific fruit as “fruit”. No one would be silly enough to do something like that.
They didn’t name the plant tea, they named the plant camellia. They named the beverage tea.
So wouldn’t the solution be to call it Camellia tea instead of “Chai tea”?
Les mots ont un sens, madame !
… and saying “a plethora of” something is just saying “a a whole bunch of of” something…
So you’re supposed to just say “I have plethora hemorrhoids”?
Plethora oranges.
