Over here, @Pete Fred showed a picture of his figgy pudding, and quoted the requisite lines from the Christmas carol "We wish you a Merry Christmas". It reminded me of a story a friend told a few days ago. She watches the TV game show "Password". The premise is that teams have to provide the missing word from a phrase. The theme on the night in question was "holiday" (or maybe specifically "Christmas"). The clue was "pudding". The teams were apparently clueless. Somebody guessed banana pudding, another guessed chocolate pudding, yet another guessed Jello pudding, and so on. Eventually the light dawned, and a team member shouted "Friggin!"

 

She really thought the line was "Now bring us some friggin' pudding...."

 

We had a lot of fun singing it that way during the subsequent caroling session. 😀

LOL The idiosyncratic pantheon of Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels included Anoia, the goddess of things that get stuck in drawers.

A sig-worthy philosophy, to be sure.

"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

"...in the mid-’90s when the internet was coming...there was a tendency to assume that when all the world’s knowledge comes online, everyone will flock to it. It turns out that if you give everyone access to the Library of Congress, what they do is watch videos on TikTok."  -Neil Stephenson, author, in The Atlantic

 

"In questions of science, the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual." -Galileo Galilei, physicist and astronomer
