We had some weeds we called pigweeds. We’d let some grow in one row because they were good as a salad, or cooked like spinach, or just nibbled raw right there.
Oh, yes, that would definitely be taking sensitivity to terminology way past the edge of reason. I think we could find some real examples, too, but … well, you know…
When we lived out in a relatively rural area, we always let our cats out, and they always came back (not counting the one my older sister… nvm), but when I got a cat in a more urban setting, I kept her inside, and I’m on my second and third cat that are fine with that arrangement.
Captain, I think we’re gonna need a bigger scooper!
