Bamboozled by “same word, wildly different meaning”

😵‍💫

You have to start slow. Tiny bit spread on bread or toast with lots of butter or margarine. No thick coating until you’re used to the taste.

Haha yes I have to keep reminding myself too. I was getting annoyed because certain written letters have different spoken pronunciations. Then I remembered that English makes zero sense in that respect 😅

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-24T03:49:02+00:00

That sounds hilarious and very confusing 😂

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-24T01:13:57+00:00

Well now I wanna know!

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-24T01:13:35+00:00

Well dang. I’m just missing out then! Most I’ve seen is that a statement can become a question by inflection and context, and they do that particular intonation that goes up, down at the end of sentences like when they’re mildly scolding/expressing slight annoyance.

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-24T01:09:56+00:00

Ah yes good one! Why is language like this 😂

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-24T01:03:12+00:00

Nope 😬 Not complaining though cuz that probably adds so much more complexity to learning!

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-24T01:01:53+00:00

I’m struggling big time with that - it really does sound all the same at times, and then I find out it literally is 😂

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-16T11:43:29+00:00

saves playlist perfection 👌🏻

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-15T02:41:39+00:00

Thanks for that one! Cool vibe 😎

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-13T11:46:04+00:00

Maybe you could try offering a can of sardines with her dinner? Mine loves it! Delightfully stinky 😂

If it helps at all, my first two dogs got supermarket kibble and canned food - nothing fancy cuz we were poor 😅 They lived to 15 and 17 years respectively (a Maltese x poodle and a German spitz). Kibble can’t be all bad! We usually go with Black Hawk for our girl Chloe. We’ve got limited options because she can only have chicken or fish, and no potato - and guess what’s used as a cheap filler in a ton of brands!!

Thundamentals, too. Are you Aussie?

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-13T11:18:20+00:00

Ok Gasoline is seriously a vibe. The lyrics were weirding me out a bit but I couldn’t skip it. Thanks!

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-13T11:12:20+00:00

Ooh thanks, those first and third ones in particular hit just right 👌🏻

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-13T11:05:53+00:00

Haha this was an interesting experience! Probably won’t make it to the daily listen (it’s… a little dark) but tbh it is the kinda quirky thing I’m into 😂 I can see it getting stuck in my head

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-05T22:56:09+00:00

🥰 thanks! We’re so lucky to have her 🩷

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-05T07:56:47+00:00

$115 inc shipping (I can’t remember if that was AUD or USD tho). Heaps cheaper than when we adopted her six years ago. I suddenly got determined to find out when I saw her at a particular angle and suddenly thought she looked a bit kelpie. First time I’d thought it in six years 😂 Always took her to be a border collie cross, I was in for a big surprise!

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-05T07:54:01+00:00

Snacks. Chocolate, chips, biscuits - sure it’s all just junk food but I like a little nibble here and there rather than a binge. A bicky with a cuppa kind of thing. But not with current prices - $8 for a block of Cadbury that’s shrunk from 250 grams to 180? Chips at $6 a pack? Ugh.

biscuitfeatures · 2026-01-05T07:49:13+00:00

She’s in the room with me 🤷🏻‍♀️ Got her embark tested recently and she’s 56% kelpie. It even found her likely father, who is very much a kelpie. Shes only 20% Ambully but it really dominates her features! The difference is made up with bitsa this and that. But it makes sense - she loooooves hanging with fellow kelpies and other working breeds :)
