Not going to lie, 45 year old with a Master’s degree and TIL. Wife will probably smack me upside the head, but I hate pickles and never really worried about their origin.
It opens a whole host of new questions though. Do cucumbers shrink a whole lot from pickling? Why aren’t mini-cucumbers called “pickled size”?
Why is there even such a distinction in English?
In my maternal language, one of them is a “raisin”, and the other is “raisin sec”, which means “dried raisin”.
And we also have “grappe de raisin”, which refers to the bunch of fruits that are attached together on the plant.
Yeah, all they need to do is express their thoughts so Ethan can make his own judgement call. I do admit this can be a delicate subject though.
Maybe they need to engineer a situation where Scott gets to meet Nicole (so he can form his own opinion firsthand), and then *he* speak to Ethan? They’re not as close, but Scott also doesn’t risk coming across as a hypocrite.
Or at that point Lucas can say that both he and Scott have concerns (but, importantly, in a one-to-one conversation so it doesn’t risk seeming like they’re ganging up on Ethan).

I think Lucas is not being fair with Ethan. Yes, he is an idiot about many things but he also has some surprising emotional intelligence.

Over under on Ethan finally getting laid? Or is the relationship going to get hypertoxic before that?
Given his comment about finally being able to be the little spoon… I think the over under on whether he will ever be the top would have longer odds
Amazon position it is then…
I wonder how many people’s minds you just blew with that last sentence.
Wait until he finds out that broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, cabbage and kale are all the same species.

Do you know what are cucumbers too? Melons
Better yet: raisins are grapes.

Presumably it’s one of those stupid language things where we got the names from different sources.
Like beef vs cow.
Not going to lie….that would save a lot more conversations with grown adults than I ever thought I’d need to have.
Pickles are almost anything you pickle.
thats a low blow… I’m 50 and I only just in the last year or two found out that pickles are cucumbers..
I’ve never liked the damned things.. but i like cucumbers. so thats my defense.
So, things are a bit in a cucumber.
Lets hope Ethan doesn’t get too much extra information on cucumbers.
“So, how did you find out that your powers are still working?”
“My GF wanted to try pegging, but she got a little too intense on it, and ended up impaling me, which caused the respawn”
That would cause internal bleeding and it’ll take quite some time for Ethan to actually die. Like, enough to go to the hospital
DON’T wait till he figures it out alone. Friends are there to earn you BEFORE you step on a landmine
