"Master" is (or at least used to be) an honorific for boys who are considered to be too young to be called "Mister," so Willie Kent was just a boy when his pet goat attacked that girl Wanna meet that boy

I find the use of quotation marks on "cop" intriguing. What's the thinking behind that? Don't want to seem uncool by using too-formal a term, but don't want to seem too casual by not signposting it as slang? Or is it literally a quotation? Did a witness tell them that a "cop" helped and they felt compelled to report their use of slang accurately?

darthbob88 posted:They need a severed toe for use in their traditional sourtoe cocktail. The hotel does have some donated spares on ice, so they can still offer the cocktail, but they don't have enough to ignore the loss of a toe like this. Now I don't know if you didn't get the joke, or I'm not getting a joke you're making.

InediblePenguin posted:they call meth ice in Texas too In the US, ice is one of several terms for meth. In Australia it's just the word they use. Like politicians and newspapers and everybody. I still don't know why I find that annoying but it's probably tied in with me thinking most Australianisms are stupid and infantile.

If you want the experience, you want the experience, you know? Big toe is also less likely to get accidentally swallowed. Anybody ordering that drink is already drunk, so accidental cannibalism is a worry.
