Let’s talk about Welsh Rabbit
For some reason I always read “rarebit” as “rabbit.” But as best as I can tell, the dish appears to be rabbit-free, Welsh or otherwise.
Wiki says the etymology is unknown but the story I heard was that “Welsh Rabbit” was a term the English used as a slur, claiming the Welsh couldn’t even afford rabbit in their main dish which was then made “Rarebit” as a way of gentling that.
Or maybe it’s a leaky rhotic R.
The only Welsh slur (of sorts) I’d heard of was used in one of Dick Francis’ novels, when he referred to someone or something “leaking like the Welsh” - a play on words referring to popularity of leeks in Wales.
Speaking of a nastier English slur, I’m reminded of one employed by famous plantsman Christopher Lloyd in a book on gardening. He referred to vegetative parts harvested illegitimately by garden visitors for propagation purposes as “Irish cuttings”. The phrase has found its way into Jackmannii family discourse (in private only) regarding the temptation* to snip off bits of other people’s plants to root for one’s own garden.
*which I’ve long resisted of course.
“Welsh” also has a long history of pejorative use as a verb meaning “refuse to pay a debt.”
This reminds me of my time in Navy ROTC decades ago. We had periodic inspections, and any loose or visible exposed threads on one’s uniform were blithely referred to as “Irish pennants.”

I don’t know, were dinosaurs prone to photosensitive epilepsy?
Hard Boiled Eggs…how do you make them?
Not the funniest misreading, but I thought that was going to be a thread about different methods for making boiled eggs. And I was legit confused when I read the OP. What? Just writing HB on an egg doesn’t make it hard boiled, the egg’s still going to be raw!
Does the state have a monopoly or violence?
Are those the only two choices?

I see that every time that thread comes up. And I keep think the poster wants to become a con artist or something.
Is Trump’s style of Fascism actually palindromic ultranationalism?
Wouldn’t that be msilanoitanartlu ultranationalism?
What is “ok” to put through a stink disposal?
I just threw out the remnants of week-and-a-half-old Chinese food because the smell made me want to hurl. But YMMV.
What’s going on with the local street revolutions?
Antifa is taking over, one neighborhood association at a time.
