@anxietycucumbr I think she'll be a good fit, although she's not without some darkness in her background. I think most of it was done against her though rather than by her. But I can't remember any details
English

yay? @pmh lovely wife said she's a good fit and has a sense of humor. So excited we can watch and kibbitz again now that the kitten murderer is gone! What do you think lovely husband?

@anxietycucumbr Oh, I've known of him for years. You can't beat a unicycling Darth Vader playing the Imperial March on fire spitting bagpipes. But he doesn't seem to be on Blue Sky, so I can't follow him

@pmh I might have found you a new account to follow! He looks FUN!

@anxietycucumbr No, I only got round to doing it yesterday. And that's the first time I've used Xitter this month, so it wouldn't quite let me scroll all the way back to where I left off reading

@pmh You changed your name to your Halloween name!!!! yay! (you may have done it earlier and I didn't notice until now)

@thebakingnanna1 @Rob_C_Allen @marybethxx6 I've come back to twitter just for this. Catching up now on the few accounts I still follow. I won't have time for the first challenge, but I probably won't have even seen the episode by the deadline anyway

@anxietycucumbr @TortyHerman @DorothytheCatto @GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @tortoise_tiny Of course anything can go in a sandwich. Famously including toast, which I'm amazed I haven't tried myself yet. And almost any type of sandwich can be enhanced by opening it up and adding crisps
English

@TortyHerman @DorothytheCatto @GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @pmh @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @tortoise_tiny Wha??????????????????????????????? HUMMUS SANDWICH?????? WTH UK? Is there anything you DON'T put on a sandwich? I dip crackers or chips in hummus, dip veggies in it... oh, take that back, kinda? I actually use it as a spreak when I make pretend Greek pizza on a pita pocket!
English

You're a roast dinner!
You're a traditionalist and deceivingly posh (though you try to come off as relatable). You're hearty and give people fuel to keep chugging along with their day! @pmh @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @tortoise_tiny

Fuck off with your AI slop, @duolingo . I'm not sticking around if you're going to favour burning resources to steal real people's work. Bye bye 2500+ day streak, I'm deleting the app
English

@tortoise_tiny @GrumpyBeak @anxietycucumbr @TortoiseGatsby @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman It's a deliberately provocative slice of nonsense. That said, I'd give it a try, and I'd be happy with peas or pesto
English

@GrumpyBeak @anxietycucumbr @TortoiseGatsby @pmh @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman That's...that's...I don't even have the words for what that is!
English

@anxietycucumbr @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @tortoise_tiny 10 for me, but I am a Brit, and most of the wrong non-US answers were clearly just ridiculous jokes
English

@SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @tortoise_tiny @pmh 8/10 Not bad! I scored better than 56% of ppl who did the quiz!

@anxietycucumbr @TortoiseGatsby @GrumpyBeak @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @tortoise_tiny Not usually, but if you really like baked beans you could have them with anything. I would never say that a food that someone likes was unacceptable, but if I was going to do this combo, I'd probably skip the gravy
English

@TortoiseGatsby @GrumpyBeak @pmh @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @tortoise_tiny Wait...... since when does Roast Dinner have BEANS!? I think English breakfast does, but I didn't know dinner did!

@anxietycucumbr @TortyHerman @willow221b @TortoiseGatsby @GrumpyBeak @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @tortoise_tiny Yes, "biscuits and gravy" sounds very strange to UK ears. Both words are used to describe quite different things here
English

@pmh @TortyHerman @willow221b @TortoiseGatsby @GrumpyBeak @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @tortoise_tiny We would all be so confused going into each others' markets to go grocery shopping and have to ask an employee where something is!!!!!!!!!!! Almost impossible!
English

@anxietycucumbr @TortyHerman @willow221b @TortoiseGatsby @GrumpyBeak @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @tortoise_tiny I thought biscuits were more like scones than bread, raised with bicarb or baking powder rather than yeast
English

@TortyHerman @willow221b @TortoiseGatsby @GrumpyBeak @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @tortoise_tiny @pmh Make it easy - it's bread! We call them dinner rolls. If it's flaky or has layers though, it's a biscuit (usually savory) w/ just butter for dinner, sweet (jam and/or butter) for breakfast.
English

@willow221b @TortoiseGatsby @GrumpyBeak @anxietycucumbr @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @tortoise_tiny I used this in a rebus for "Benedict Cumberbatch" in my quiz last month. It was an actual batch of joined up buns though, as I thought a single roll would be a step too far for the folks down here near the End
English

@TortoiseGatsby @GrumpyBeak @anxietycucumbr @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @tortoise_tiny @pmh Here in Coventry we call a bread roll a batch. Apparently no where else says this 🤓

Maybe not actually violent, but it can be pretty rough
English

@pmh @TortyHerman @GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @tortoise_tiny What's hurling? I bet it's not as violent!
English

@anxietycucumbr @TortyHerman @GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @tortoise_tiny We have hurling down here, which is somewhat similar
English

@TortyHerman @GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @tortoise_tiny WHAT THE WHAT!? Interesting find... NO MURDER ALLOWED! (when you have to specifically say that, I'm a bit concerned!) @pmh

@GrumpyBeak @anxietycucumbr @pmh @pedals121 @TortyHerman @TortoiseGatsby @tortoise_tiny Hold on hold on. We use ground beef!!!
English

@GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @anxietycucumbr @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @tortoise_tiny Too right. It's obviously #JamFirst. The other way around is only even logistically sensible with a miserably small scraping of cream. (Speaking as a well indoctrinated immigrant to Cornwall)
English

@TortoiseGatsby @anxietycucumbr @pmh @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @tortoise_tiny We’re the other way around - cream is always a topping! 🐢😬
English

@anxietycucumbr @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @tortoise_tiny Is it the filling or the top of shepherd's pie that you object to, or maybe the combination? And are you labouring under the apparently common American misapprehension that beans on toast is eaten cold? (Less appealing, I would agree, but not totally unacceptable)
English

@pmh @SimonandHuman1 @pedals121 @TortyHerman @GrumpyBeak @TortoiseGatsby @tortoise_tiny Shepard's pie is GROSS!!!! Better than the idea of beans on toast though!!!!
English

@anxietycucumbr I'm not sure whether I've ever seen it all the way through, but I'm working (slowly) on a Morris dance to "do re mi" and possibly "favourite things"

Seen it 100s of times! Wore out 2 VHS tapes before bought it on DVD. Saw 50th anniversary re-release in theaters. Best $18 I ever spent! I was youngest person there!
I don't have a favorite song, or even scene! I do have a favorite gif... too bad it's still relevant in 2025!
