Inflammable means flammable?! What a country!

They're generally called vinegar flies, and they don't infest fresh fruit like fruit flies do when they lay their eggs in fruit.

Pardon my ignorance - what's 'play with my nuts' a reference to for Carter, aside from his gonads?

But David Spade looks like him. I know what you mean about Martin Short's vivacity though, he'd be a fine Wonka, whose idea was it to cast Chalamet

*counsel you. I'm picturing a police officer comforting a suspect who's sobbing with a hand on their shoulder haha.

Nah I think it means 'chuck your stuff in a sack and get out of here'. Sac(k) to refer to balls is probably also a very old usage from French but since it's vulgar it likely didn't become the colloquialism meaning to be removed from one's job. It is a funny homonym though.

lol dunno why the downvotes but that's hilarious if you don't use the word 'sack' someone as a synonym for 'fire' someone where you come from!

I can't believe we're still talking about that shitty propaganda! I remember anticipating an interesting documentary about quantum implications, then went to see it with some other physics nerds and being disgusted by the hamfisted mix of fundamentalist religion framed as "science". What have they done to us? WHAT DID THEY DO TO US

Right. Carrots and potatoes are legumes now are they? The commenter replied to you summarised it for you, and you don't know as much as you think you do.

Trait is/can be pronounced as 'tray'.

Counterpoint: telling people how they are supposed to prepare their food, which they consume and becomes a part of them and as such is intensely personal, is a dick move.
