Cake day is the anniversary of the date you created your reddit account. Just something Reddit added for fun, nothing more.

SDF is a compound containing silver and fluoride. The silver kills the bacteria and the fluoride remineralizes the enamel.

The correct chemical name for this compound is silver diammine fluoride. The single-m spelling is a common mistake, even in medical literature.

And pizza with pineapple on it.

That's only true in urban areas, where every location has taxis nearby. If you're in Newport, it's a 15-minute ride for the taxi just to pick you up. And then when he drops you in New London (population 4500), he's unlikely to find another passenger (except maybe someone arriving on that bus), so it's another 30 minutes, unpaid, for him to drive back to Claremont.

They should be wearing doublets instead of robes.

Spirits are not bound by terrestrial limitations. She will follow you to your new home, just as she would have done in life.

What mystifies me is that there are so many different colors. When I've seen these on bottles, there might be a different color for different variations of the product (matching the cap color). But that's typically 4 or 5 colors, not this many.

Most likely a confusion between Catalan fermat (which means tied or leashed) and French fermé (which means closed). But they got the French translation correct.

The lights are a bug catcher.

For sure, he was a narcissistic asshole even back then, and everyone knew it. But back then he could speak in coherent sentences. Not like now.

But "wicked", at least in New England, doesn't have an inherently positive meaning. It's used as an intensifying adverb, so you can say wicked hot, wicked cold (both negative), wicked good (positive), wicked fast (neutral).

If you listen to his television interviews from '90s, he was articulate and even charming. He's gone a lot downhill since then.

In 2016, most Maine producers switched over to the inernational grading system (Golden, Amber, Dark, Extra Dark). That brings them in line with Vermont and Québec.

"Him". Nikola is a male name in Serbia. And "great author" is a bit of a stretch. As far as I can tell, only two of his books have been published. (If you don't count an album of illustrations from this book).

tl;dr: Reply to the text with the single word "STOP". Nothing else but that one word.

These political texts (usually requests for a donation to their campaign) are what I would describe as "legitimate" spam. They're still spam, and still unwanted, but the people sending them have a reasonable expectation that you will be sympathetic to their message. Perhaps you once donated money to Hillary Clinton, and now every Democratic candidate is asking you for support.

These "legitimate spammers" don't want to waste their resources once they know that you are not interested. Their texts are sent out by mailing list software that will recognize the word STOP (or sometimes END).

The web site says that it doesn't collect anything, and all stored information (about the colors you have picked) is stored locally in your browser.

I see you're hedging your bets on the "cream first" vs "jam first" issue. Now everyone will say you're doing it wrong.

I was a software developer in a former life. When I read "disable the manufacturer's telemetry, ad services, content rows, etc", my first thought was that it sounds like a hassle figuring out how to do those things, so maybe it's more trouble than it's worth. No indication from your instructions that all these settings are simple menu options.
