A random thread of absolute randomness...

Heard about a new scam called a credit sweep, where you hook up with (and pay) one of these people on tiktok or whatever, and they will tell you what type of letters to send to these companies and within 7 days stuff will start falling off your Equifax, transunion, and experian credit reports. However, what people dont realize is that the stuff they are filling out is saying that the information is fraud, so by law they have to take it off to look into it, but it will pop up within 30 days again if found not true. By the time the person realizes this happened the person they contacted has probably already ghosted them @_@.

I've decided that I want to be an apple sommelier in the new system. It will be fun tasting and identifying apples around the world.

DYK: That word has connections with the word "butter". 

 

I'd heard it used in connection with professional wine tasters, I think?

"Butler" or wine steward, but it can apparently be used to describe a professional taster.

Hopefully the early watch makers didn't get excited easily....

I have solved the rubik.s cube before, but was not amused enough to remember the intermediate formulae. Some math teachers, like myself did, and could repeat solve it for kicks.

So you're saying that @Tortuga is going to literally become "apple butter"?

You may need to see an optometrist first, as @just1-4all said "butter" that has 2 t's, not "butler" which has T and L.

 

Otherwise, you may be putting other things in your mouth other than apples. 🤢

This is the definition I found on several sites.

 

What Is the Meaning of “Sommelier?”
A sommelier is a trained and knowledgeable wine professional who is responsible for wine service in a restaurant. In French, the word sommelier translates to butler and is used as a term to describe a wine steward or wine waiter.

"Random" has a mathematical connotation that I will not quote here. Other math influences include: Acute = a sharp angle, now used to describe something cunning and attractive like my cute little doggy. Integer, a whole number with no fraction gave us the cognate integrity. I will come to a full stop now.

Johnny Appleseed was a real New Englander who planted apples trees in abundance. He  was born in Leominster< MASSAchusetts, also known as the plastic city.

It is possible to grow an apple tree from an apple seed. However, in most cases, apple trees don't come true from seeds, as John did, likely. (return to randomness,please.)

"Random" was once a noun but not so much now.
