Heck, guns & ammo can’t get any more out of stock or expensive. :ohno: A bunch of stuff I’d like to buy I can’t because its flat out out of stock everyone, or I refuse to pay obscene prices for it at stores, gun shows, or auction.. 1st the China Virus, then the riots, then the election, 7 million of whatever new gun owners. While not a big gun guy, I do own low double digits. I should have gotten into reloading before last yr..

Was just told we can't use the term, "kitchen English," because we offended someone.

It means, say it simply. Don't overcomplicate an explanation (especially with that engineer jargon no-one else knows or cares about.)

Wiki defines it differently - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butler_English

Maybe the alternative definition is why it could be considered offensive.

Yeah - that's not how I've ever used or known it to mean. It's saying something clearly so anyone can understand. :lol:

Wow. I wonder what other phrases you or someone thinks is well known but it really isn't.

I could have probably figured out the meaning, but I don't believe I've ever heard it before.

Harris taking over for Biden. From the White House:
“Please be sure to reference the current administration as the ‘Biden-Harris Administration’ in official public communications,” the email stated, with the "Biden-Harris Administration" in bold letters.

According to Outspoken, the Biden administration – err, the Biden-Harris administration – is the first administration to refer to both the president and vice president when referring to the White House as a whole. The change has been reflected on the White House Twitter account.

Never heard of it either. A few guys from India, that I worked with would talk about proper English, as in British.
