You could replace BMW with Audi, and there’d be no loss of meaning!
I, uh, ordered some groceries from Amazon Fresh. They were out of regular bananas, I had asked for 4, and asked me if the substitute was okay. I have no idea why, but this is what I got!! We are just able to have our family Christmas this coming Sunday, so yes, they will be getting some bananas! And I guess I’ll try to make banana bread. I’m not crazy about it.
Yes, you have no some
ETA – apologies for my woeful HTML skills…
That’s a lot more than 4 bananas—maybe they thought you surely meant 4 hands of bananas. Haha!
Quick side bar: When that happens from a delivery error, do you pay for 25+ bananas?
mustve thought it was 4 pounds of bananas
It makes no sense, but I didn’t. What could that shopper have been thinking?s
I’m not convinced some of the shoppers think—just try to get thru the lists & deliver asap. Time is money and some of the subs they offer are pretty outrageous.
When I have too many bananas I 1) marinate them in rum, so I have banana flavored rum and/or 2) mash up a bunch (4 or 5?) and cook with steel cut oats for banana oatmeal (doesn’t need sweetener). In case this helps.
I don’t get it
The song was a viral hit (in today’s terms), there were at least a dozen versions running around, it was on radios, records, sheet music, plays, etc. There were lawsuits by people who were tired of hearing the song. Then add the trope of the ghost in the theatre.
The cartoon is from 1940, and the idea is that a ghost haunting the theatre is not be playing some sad haunting music, but some ridiculous novelty song. It also demonstrates that in 1940, Americans were still familiar with the song. Of course, many Americans are STILL familiar with the song, more than 100 years after it was written.
I’m familiar with the song. It was the cartoon I didn’t understand. Thanks for the background
