I was trying to remember what we called Brazil nuts when I was a kid, but I don't think I ever even saw one until after college. I don't like them much.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Where my brother and Mom and nephew live are "Blue Ghosts" - fireflies that have a blue glow. They don't blink on and off as quickly and they sort of hover near the ground. It's only during a short window of time and in a very small area.
Ooooh, where?
I don't recall hearing any casual racism from family members until my paternal grandparents attended my high school graduation and commented on my classmates. I didn't confront them directly but I did tell my parents I wouldn't stay in the room and listen to that.
I never knew Brazil nuts as anything but Brazil nuts and I always caught a tiger by it's tail.

I was also blissfully unaware of any other versions until well into adulthood. My childhood was very blessed in this way.
AHS is way disturbing--I'm trying to work out if it's engaging enough to be this disturbed or not.
I think I watched the first three episodes, but Constance and Adelaide's trespasses were so enraging, capped by Ben's failure to put a stop to them, that I gave up. I was shocked at myself -- never before or since have I felt such an overwhelming desire to see physical violence done to people. I didn't know I had that button, but it sure got pushed. I couldn't handle it, so I quit.
Pretty soon I need to put on some outside pants and go to a sports bar for the playoffs game. Considering that I've been out and about a lot today already, you'd think this would require less effort.
I ran all the errands this morning, or at least bought all the food (for me and for the office), but since then I have done nothing. Except napping, I mean.
Napping is something!
Yeah, I basically got up, got aspirin, went back to bed, got up, walked over to get coffee, went back to bed, fed the kittens, went back to sleep on the couch...I'm only now semi-awake, and my head still hurts. (GRRR)

I found the first season to be brilliant and possibly the most fucked up thing I've ever seen. I usually watched Glee after to clear the brain a bit before bed. I haven't seen the second season.
