So interesting. I always thought the bakers dozen came from the fact that tue baker would make 13 so they had one for themselves

I used to babysit a little girl who, if she saw someone in a skirt or dress, would run up to them and say, “Hey! Hey! Um. Does your dress spin?” And of course, even strangers knew the only correct response was to perform the most elaborate twirl and make that dress spin. Now, over a decade later, when I’m shopping for dresses, I always give them a test spin to make sure they’re wooshy enough.
Thank you for reminding me of that memory this morning, it sparked joy :)
It was very funny, I like this a lot, thank you.
My orange boy was also the smartest cat I’ve ever had. I do love the “one orange braincell” meme, but I’ve always heard the… idk, rumor? Wives tale?.. that orange cats were the best hunters, and that was true for my guy.
I started using reddit in 2011, I’m not a power user or major contributor by any means. But I’m a lonely person who got joy out of my small niche communities, and I fear those are the spaces that will take the longest to reappear on lemmy, especially because I have no interest in modding or starting any of them myself. I haven’t actually subscribed to any communities on lemmy yet, I’m waiting for the sync app to be ready so things will be more like I’m used to using (aka easier) and then I’ll log into old reddit on my computer, write down all the subreddits I’m subscribed to, and begin to see which ones exist on the different lemmy instances and start to make this place feel more like my lil internet home. I liked tithe reddit experience more when I first started using it, and I’m excited for lemmy to kind of have that feeling again, since it’s new and small still.
It’s a charcuterie board, not a cutting board, its for parties, the illustrations are telling you what kinds of snacks to put out. What a cool idea for a lap desk, it’s so pretty and unique.
It’s called the scrub mommy because it has a soft side :)
(I didn’t make that up, thats their advertising).
Also it does 2x the work for less money than the scrub daddy costs. I didn’t make that up either, but it’s true, they’re cheaper, and that’s very funny.
