I guess I'm looking for a group that is kind of recent. I've been doing this for about a week or so, and most of the discussions I've been interested in joining have been from 2015. So my opinion on them would be a little late. I could literally talk about anything. So some one jump in please.

    Where did the term, "Cheese it, the cops!" come from?

    “cheese it—the cops!” was a staple of mid-20th-century crime novels and films, as well as such movies as The Dead End Kids and The Bowery Boys.

    I want to say they are different, I think Alpha Bits are more sugary.

    Now I want to know the answer as it's made by the same company. So, is it just repackaged and maybe sugar added because there are not marshmallows?

    Haha, no. That's not what I meant. While I was typing my response to the cereal question and the cheese thing. You know, the questions everyone's really wanting to know, you typed your question.

    Apparently all the great threads are from 2008.

    Per Yahoo Answers:
    "Best Answer: because they used to use peanut shells to do that sort of packing with and those Styrofoam pieces replaced that"

    Just to make sure I understand... you combed every thread from 2017 and 2016 and didn't find anything to your liking and had to go back to 2015 to find discussions that interest you? What discussions were being had in 2015?

    Just to reiterate, I just started this thing. So no I haven't combed through every discussion from 2017 and 2016. I sped read through titles of discussions and as they seemed somewhat interesting I would check them out.

    I have to say though, a discussion about why I wanted to have a discussion has to be the single most original idea for a discussion I've seen yet. ( slow clapping) Props to you.

    In the original Parent Trap with Hayley Mills, why was it acceptable that the twins, one from California and one from Massachusetts, both had an English accent?

    Best answer I could find that makes sense to me:

    "not-quite-a-chicken bird laying the egg which would grow up to be a chicken"

    Interesting.

    Reminds me that in the TV show Reign everyone has an English accent, including the queen of Scotland and the king of France. The fact that they all have English accents distracts me to the point I can't watch it anymore

    Well I get called an arsehole a lot so I guess I resemble the bottom side of an apple.
