I like to smuggle linguistics monologues into any conversation by hiding them in a regional accent or foreign language Trojan horse.

Keep your eye out for buckets. The first one I acquired must have fallen out of a pickup that turned too quickly. I was super self-conscious when I pulled over to pick it up

Oh nice! They were $10 for 3. I wasn't sure if that was actually a good deal. They say "Certified by NSF to Standard #2"

I accidentally started a pottery hobby. It began with digging out some garden beds then one thing led to another and now I need a bunch of water to let the natural clay separate from the debris

It was $10 for a 3 pack. Something tells me this is actually a shit price but I can't imagine needing more than this.

Um akshually, Christmas was being celebrated a century before then but didn't have a set date yet. There's a good chance both holidays picked the 25th because it's the winter solstice and everyone was into astrology back then.

Hopefully I don't get attacked like the last time I mentioned this. Also, a lot of the other "pagan" traditions in Christmas, like the yule log, showed up centuries after Norse paganism died out, which was a completely different religious tradition from Roman paganism.

If you want criticize early Christianity just point out how the gospels were written a generation after all the eyewitnesses died and that a bunch of other books didn't make the final cut of the bible, e.g. gospel of Thomas.

I was disappointed that it wasn't some Australian guy living the outback.
