I see eggcorns for these words in the wild a lot; here's what the eggcorns are referring to (with a bonus link for eggcorn). If you know where the terms come from, it's easier to keep them straight. 1. Cut & Dried (past tense) https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cut_and_dried 2. Kid Gloves https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/kid_glove#English 3. Bonus link: Eggcorns https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eggcorn #Eggcorns #English #Language

Omgggg I've been wondering if there's a way to search through my own posts and I just saw a tip today on how to do it.

Just type from:@[your full user id] and then your search term.

Holy carp.

Für die Profis unter Euch sicher ein alter Hut, aber ich habe heute gelernt, dass man Packungen von Kabelbindern nicht oben aufschneidet sondern in der Mitte.

Dadurch können die Kabelbinder nicht rausfallen und lassen sich trotzdem leicht entnehmen.
😃👍

Warum bin ich da nicht selbst drauf gekommen?

#TIL what that patch with two slits on many backpacks is for: It's half of a setup to strap a pickaxe to your bag.

Habe gerade zum ersten Mal die #VeggieKarte entdeckt:

Ist doch etwas einfacher als OverpassTurbo Abfragen 😂

Und wenn man sich an die Icons gewöhnt hat, bekommt man sehr schnell ein Überblick über das Angebot. Tolle Sache!

#ballheimen #TIL Jenten våres tok en sterk 3-0 seier hjemme mot Frigg - det gledes! Spent på #Gutanvåres i morra ⚽️👌 Brann har vakla i vår, men kanskje dem reise sæ. Spennanes! Viking må også skjerpe sæ - men nå leder de 3-1 til pause, så der har de kanskje fått litt vind i seielet omsider.
