Over in ‘Misread thread titles’ @Der_Trihs misread it as ‘glided’. Both ‘grifted’ and ‘gilded’ work equally as well as ‘gifted’, if not better.

Ha, I initially mistyped ‘gilded’ as ‘gelded’-- which is how you-know-who is going to feel if all those meanies yelling “corruption!” make him have to decline the offer 🤣
