If you’ve ever had a cat sit in front of a toilet paper roll and spin it, you will appreciate having the open end toward the wall so it doesn't fully unravel

Nuts only make sense in something that's already hard, like a cookie. It complements it by going from something hard-ish to another hard-ish texture.
Nuts in cake DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. I hate having to chew something smooth and spongy and suddenly - CRONCH. It's repulsive. 99% of the time it also tastes worse than the cake itself. If you actually want to put nuts on your damn cake, put it on the top so I can slide it off and eat it separately. Thank you.

I get the idea is to abbreviate to fit as much in, but it hurts my mind every time! There has to be some retention of language!
Anyway not anyways. I don’t care what the dictionary says. Anyways sounds backwoods, plural, and the “s” is pointless.
That my wife HAS to dust off her feet before getting in bed. Dirty bed? Go fudge yourself!
