@fesshole The sound's a diphtong, so it makes sense that a young kid would be confused about it. The fesser should be annoyed with the teacher for making them feel mortified.

@fesshole Well, that seems entitled, rude, ignorant, and poorly disciplined - so I guess you've got more in common than you thought!

@fesshole spent a winter in a semi south of Manchester, never been colder in my life. English houses truly are unique in that respect, and don't get me started on how drafty it was...

@fesshole Half milk, half water, salt. And eaten with sugar on top, of course.

@gilester45 @fesshole absolutely doable still, e.g. with the Mastodon crowd. Ive met up with people from online several times in the past decades, only been murdered once or twice.
