Has it rained yet where you are? What’s happening this week?

My friends.

Maybe this is our chance to get rid of the tiresome Reddit trope of trying to catch people out in so-called “Americanisms” (that usually just ended up being different British dialects anyway).

Maybe this is our chance to be better.
