After Seatgate and Foolgate, I don't want to hear the word "snowflake" ever again

"I showed up fashionably late for my airplane flight and someone else was sitting in my seat. So I'm going to spend the next three weeks complaining about the airline."

"You made a dessert called Orange Fool? I'm a-gonna kick your ass for hating on our president!"

Question for all: Which has a thinner skin?
A) A Trump supporter from Vidalia, Georgia

or

B) An onion from there?

of whipped cream mixed with chopped fruit that has been soaked in liqueur and sugar. It's spooned into glasses, crushed ladyfingers are sprinkled on top.

Some damned nitwit has thinner skin than the fool he voted for. Who knew?

The one the Trumpistas are pissed off about contains:

about a quart of heavy cream
six eggs
the juice of six Seville oranges
1/2 cup sugar

Mix all of it together, heat to a slow boil over low flame (a double boiler would work well), remove from heat and stir until it cools down. You could set the pot in ice to speed the cooling process.

I'd think oranges would be too full of liquid to do the usual whipped cream/macerated fruit recipe. This would be the closest thing to it.

I used to know all those New England terms like buckle, duff, slump, and yes, fool. Been a long time.
