Heck, guns & ammo can’t get any more out of stock or expensive. :ohno: A bunch of stuff I’d like to buy I can’t because its flat out out of stock everyone, or I refuse to pay obscene prices for it at stores, gun shows, or auction.. 1st the China Virus, then the riots, then the election, 7 million of whatever new gun owners. While not a big gun guy, I do own low double digits. I should have gotten into reloading before last yr..

Was just told we can't use the term, "kitchen English," because we offended someone.

:lol: Wait...serious? You never heard "kitchen English?"


It means, say it simply. Don't overcomplicate an explanation (especially with that engineer jargon no-one else knows or cares about.)

Wiki defines it differently - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butler_English

Maybe the alternative definition is why it could be considered offensive.

Yeah - that's not how I've ever used or known it to mean. It's saying something clearly so anyone can understand. :lol:

Wow. I wonder what other phrases you or someone thinks is well known but it really isn't.

I could have probably figured out the meaning, but I don't believe I've ever heard it before.

Harris taking over for Biden. From the White House:
“Please be sure to reference the current administration as the ‘Biden-Harris Administration’ in official public communications,” the email stated, with the "Biden-Harris Administration" in bold letters.

According to Outspoken, the Biden administration – err, the Biden-Harris administration – is the first administration to refer to both the president and vice president when referring to the White House as a whole. The change has been reflected on the White House Twitter account.

Never heard of it either. A few guys from India, that I worked with would talk about proper English, as in British.
