wtf call it meat?
We don't call other stuff codmeat or tilapiameat or lobstermeat.
Also, shellfish is weird.

Appending -fish or -meat is a necessity with tinned or frozen product, as the provenance of a grayish protein isn't always obvious.

interesting footnote - meat used to mean food in general and only came to mean animal flesh later on. there's a vestige of the original meaning in sweetmeat which isn't meat at all obv.

soda, ugh, yes. that comes from years of shit teaching in high schools which sadly is used even in Honors level classes.
When I made it into AP English I took forever to succeed because I kept using what they taught me in Honors and the teacher was all like "lol that's bullshit".

this is part of the whole serialized "nu-golden age" of TV shit, but i hate "Big Bad" as both a phrase and increasingly as lazy in both idea and execution.
― nomar, Saturday, 11 March 2017 20:25 (eight years ago)
Yeah what's the origin of that
― wins, Saturday, 11 March 2017 20:41 (eight years ago)
Big Bad is a term originally used by the Buffy the Vampire Slayer television series to describe a major recurring adversary, usually the chief villain or antagonist in a particular broadcast season.[1][2] It has since been used to describe annual villains in other television series, and has also been used in scholarly work discussing Buffy the Vampire Slayer.[1][3]
