This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

Punishingly Intricate

Gomach is Gaelic for idiot/fool...at least in Cape Breton. So maybe it's some kind of variant of a similar word. Not that Gaelic ever makes any sense to me.

Interesting. My great-grandmother was from Cork and the peolple I asked about the word were on the Aran Islands so it may be a micro-regional term.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Art Crawl!!!

Dictionary.com says that there is a Scottish word "gomeral" which means fool.

I've seen "gomeral" in Golden Age British mystery books.

Is Riverdale being talked about in a specific thread? I've seen it mentioned but don't remember where and I've watched the first episodes

Newfoundland Dictionary has gommel as a stupid person, according to this: [link]

Gommel and gomeral are such great words. They have a good mouthfeel.

Sara, I wish we lived closer because I would be happy to help you part with some cookies.

We got an instant pot for our anniversary. I made steel cut oatmeal that was actually PERFECT today and now I'm making pork chili colorado which smells amazing but might be too zingy.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Askye- I think that Riverdale would go in Cable Drama? Is the CW cable? Or here.

I watched one and a half episodes after hearing it discussed by Linda Holmes and Sara D. Bunting, and in other places, and I liked it! I always seem to like things more than other people-- but I love far fewer things than other people.

CW isn't cable. It's broadcast.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Eventually, Sabrina will show up, then it will be boxed set.
