defensiveness ahoy, food, otf can ruin anything, the mods hate otf so much, whipping cream is hard!

Cool Whip: It's a Floorwax and a Dessert Topping!
Over in the hip_domestics community, petrel asks the age old question, "Cool Whip is the same as whipped cream, right?" followed closely by "How do you make whipped cream anyway?" This draws some slight mumbling from the crowd on the evils of Cool Whip, nothing spectacular, really.

Anyhoo, domestic snark picks it up and upsets a friend of the original poster, coflower, who wouldn't have been upset if everyone knew what an IQ smart person [petrel] is.

Once again, short but sweet. (I should really stop looking at food comms when I'm hungry.)

	Just don't ask for whipped cream on your cuppaccino or I will cut you. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	How about if I pronounce espresso with an "x"? That's totally acceptable, right? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

I have coworkers who do that.

I do not mind, however. I try to convince myself that it's the same process that leads to "axe" for "ask," and therefore a totally acceptable and regular form of language change and -- OMG I'M BULLSHITTING MYSELF AND I KNOW IT AND IT DOESN'T WORK.

Next time you go to a coffeeshop, tell them your barista friend told you to order a french vanilla cuppaccini and a sconce.
