For some reason, I misread that as humble brag at first. I read so fast, I sometimes make mistakes like that.

Truth! I was totally unprepared for my first trip to Sesame Street as a young adult. Before I knew it, I was making Gonzo porn in a back alley. I can still feel that blue nose wrapped in my hands…

Agreed. Beyond decorum, his willingness to work with others across the aisle and support for diplomacy over pure strongarm politics were admirable. I would not vote for him, but I also believe he would not lie about domestic “war zones” for political gain.

That really cods my swallops. Gangs my busters. Picks my posies. Narfles my garthok. Pumpers my nickel. Kibbles my bits. It even shishes my kabob. I'm not sure if that's a good thing.

One of my favorite experiences as a non-native speaker was getting to hear Germans argue which gender a loanword was. Das E-Mail vs. die E-Mail or das Spam vs. der Spam, and so on. Both were so confident the other was wrong, but had trouble articulating exactly why.

It doesn't capture the grammar, of course, but I think the closest to capture the meaning is something like "The genitive is dead, (long live) the dative." But even that is obviously very inexact.

For non-native speakers or anybody it might not be clear to, "invalid" in this context is an old term for somebody who is sick. It would be pronounced more like "IN-vuh-lid", rather than "in-VAL-id". This is why the recipes tend to be simpler meals.

I like this idea. Alternatively, put together one of those multi-hour long loop versions. "In case you feel like falling asleep to the music."

This was in reference to the Poirot-alike character. In Agatha Christie's works, Poirot is often mistaken for a "Frenchie", despite being Belgian. It's a British-ism. It's also used in the British 1982 adaptation of The Scarlet Pimpernel.
