I could look this up, but I might as well hassle you guys: Is it

Blue, blue-green, green-blue, green
Or
Blue, green-blue, blue-green, green?

How do you know if you're in love? Honestly, this one has been both Persisting and Niggling me for quite some time.

What does fruitcake really taste like? I've never had any, never intend to, but still...

Like brandy, if done properly.

And what if it's NOT done properly?
Actually, I have no idea what brandy tastes like.

Don't most people just say "the Web" these days?

No, you made me question anew how you managed to get out of that straightjacket.

I hereby declare today to be Junk Food Day here in the PNQ thread!

I can understand how "pop" was applied to carbonated beverages, but what about "soda?"

Do they say "ketchup" or "catsup" in Canada?

Aren't there umpteen more efficient ways to get flavored sugar to your mouth than Pixie Stix?

What's the more common pronounciation: "car-mell" or "care-a-mel?"

Why do peanut butter and chocolate make such a great combination? WHY?

Soda water is the part which gives it the carbonation (contains sodium bicarbonate, or did in Britain.)

Both.

Define "umpteen".

Neither.

They just do. Ask again, and we'll take yours away.
