Here's Karloff's post for those who aren't bi-coastal: Hi Flouret, I was responding to Murph's original comment. Regarding my comment on the guitar you are interested in, I was just trying to be funny. no malicious intent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly.  Posts a serial number and wants info on a guitar..... then when I say we'll need more info, he posts half a dozen photos of the guitar...but STILL doesn't say what he wants to know..... finally says he wants a price.  Very Strange.

Fleuret (or flouret) is a small flower or bud.  A cauliflower head is comprised of fleurets. AFAIK.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitefang Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 22 hours ago, DanvillRob said: So our new friend Flouret is a head of cauliflower? On a bag of frozen broccoli they're noted as "Florets". Probably meaning they haven't been ground into "flour".   And since the cauliflower "curds"( which y'all's been calling "flourets") which are the only parts of the cauliflower plant that gets eaten HAVE been used to make pizza dough and other bread type foods, "FLOURets" might be fitting in this case.  But back on topic. Listening closely, I've yet to hear any newscaster call the Russian president "Poo-in" . But rather, hear his name pronounced "PEW-tin" more often. But considering whom they're talking about, POO and PEW are rather fitting, yes? Whitefang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murph Posted May 11, 2023 Author Share Posted May 11, 2023 They taught us in school to brush our upper teeth down, and our lower teeth up. They even had those little red "dye" pills that tasted good but turned your mouth red. Every time I see a toothpaste commercial, they are brushing from side to side.
