Cocktail crisis averted: I was able to cobble together something not too far off from a sour. Using an egg white that's been in my freezer for a year and a half. This may be a good use for those frozen egg whites as it gets hotter, very refreshing.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
"dresser" or "bureau" were the only terms I knew to call the damn things. CoD was a strange new thing.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oo! I just had a thought. Chest of drawers = like a chest or a trunk, but with drawers in it.

Because books.
You can freeze egg whites?!
I think we used dresser and bureau most, but I had always heard chest of drawers, too. In my head, a chest of drawers is one of the tall ones, and a dresser is lower, maybe three big drawers with a mirror over it, but I have no idea why.
I'm trying to pick an appropriate sample of erotic writing in answer to an ad for, you guessed it, erotica writers. But I think fic has really colored my definition of what's mainstream erotic and what's not, though.

Wait, what? There's a new one already?
New as in came out earlier this week? (The last one came out a year ago, but I just read it a few months ago) Yeah. Half-Off Ragnarok.

Given the stuff I've seen...as long as there aren't tentacles, it's mainstream. Furries probably aren't, but werewolves are, so...

I've never written tentacles! So that's good ...

In my family, we use chest of drawers and dresser interchangeably. Bureau, rarely.

Well, at least not after reading one of my stories!
