Shockingly, it was a human lurker grabbing our latest megaclick. Closest W on either side was Sec19Row53 (-235 and +362).

Gee those last 40,000 views accelerated.

Or maybe I lost a day or two.

Either is entirely possible.

Resuming lurking...

Oh, while I'm here, I think I learned a thing today.

When you Americans say what *I* hear to be "squirly", you're actually saying "squirrely", which makes a lot more sense.

I genuinely thought "squirly" was a whole separate word, meaning twitchy or perhaps untrustworthy.

I totally thought that's what squirrelly meant? But I'm in that strange spot in life where I'm clinging to 80s jargon and learning that "dude" and "bruh" mean different things.

My multi-year personal goal of getting a mega-click milestone has failed yet again.

I think this is something totally on me. Because I'd only heard the word in that context and not seen it written, I didn't associate it with squirrelly, which I pronounce differently (UK style). So therefore I made up an entirely new and unnecessary word. 😋

What's the UK style of pronouncing 'squirrely'? I assume it is making sure that each syllable is pronounced, thus not ending up with 'skwirly'.

Bruh and dude - what's the difference? Yes, I am old.



Nobody cares :-)

I have no idea what the difference is, but apparently there is one. I work with kids, and a few months ago, a 7-year-old got angry because I called him "dude." He calls me "bruh" so I told him I was calling him "dude." Because, yes, he and I are on the same level of maturity. I told him they mean the same thing and he argued with me, so I asked 2 older kids nearby. They said he was right, and here is the verbatim examples I was given:
"No. They're different. Because when you say 'bruh, come on,' you mean quit playing. And when you say 'dude, come on,' you mean let's go."

So....yeah. Bruh is annoyed and dude isn't ? Not a clue.

I thought it was this damn blizzard messing with my Internet. Thanks for the better reason, Zed.
