That’s actually a phrase translated into every language that has a phrases page on omniglot, which cracks me up consistently.

What in the actual fuck are you on about?

They genuinely believe some random guy is god incarnate so they tormented him his entire life to try and get him to kill himself,

Nothing in wicca allows any of that, so far as I’m aware.

That’s SO far off base with what I understand of the basic tenets of wicca that it’d be like an humanist atheist vegan suddenly signing on to work as a halal butcher and then deciding animals aren’t enough, it’s time to butcher people instead.

Pronounced like “hope” without the “h”, it is indeed a local (Midwestern U.S.) "expression.

It is, mostly, a “shorthand apology”.

“Ope, just gonna squeeze right past you and grab the ranch” (dressing) or “Ope, grab the butter while you’re up whydoncha?”, or “Ope, I spose it’s about that time.”

In the context of that sticker, it’s more like a “sorry, not sorry” but less intense and more polite.

would say that Morton is not at all deranged in creating this especially considering I’ve got a container of it sitting on my spice rack right now.

It has an additional use, too.

The non-“salt” ingredient here, potassium chloride, is the “harder to find” ingredient in a simple four ingredient rehydration solution.

The other ingredients are sodium chloride, sugar, and water.

So equal parts this and sugar in a glass of water and you’ve got yourself the world health organization’s answer to dehydration.

I legit wasn’t sure if this was a real thing she did that started as a friendly joke or something.

Actually, I’m still not sure.

The BEHAVIOR of a very small subset of vegans unfortunately causes a small but ridiculously vocal subset of non-vegans to tar all vegans with the same brush.

Since volume equals truth for a not insignificant number of people in the Internet, far too many people don’t stop to separate behavior choices from professed beliefs and that’s how we get where we are now, I unfortunately.

The world would be a better place if people stopped automatically associating and assuming causation and instead treated bad behavior as just that.
