not my cup of tea

The last time my brand of coffee got "New and Improved", my 3 pound (48 ounce) container dropped to 27.8 ounces.
Price is the same. Improved for whom?

I always wonder how they can IMPROVE something NEW

I see this word "quality" thrown around all over the internet and in daily speech quite often. EVERYTHING has quality...but what DEGREE of quality is seldom defined (high/good-low/bad).

People are often misled by attention-grabbing words with nothing substaantial behind them.

The joke was that the word "Qality" was misspelt.

Now that's comedy.

Ah! Gotcha. I was headed off on a completey different tangent.

That's the kind of thing that keeps me coming back to this forum! We see the word 'quality' thrown around all over the internet, but to see the word 'Qality' thrown around you gotta come here!

Actually e-bay did that for me. I know that my english and my orthography is not perfect, but in that case it was a direct quote.

I think that symbolism can be over done. I have a tie embroidered with thistles and another with rampant lions; and yes, I wear them with my kilts. But the thing is that my general trappings have neither of these symbols. Though I must admit that I was considering a pair of silver rampant lion cuff links, but that's because the chapter of the reenactment troop I'm part of has a white lion on it's shield. My plaid brooch and belt buckle are a matching set of "Celtic" crosses, but to my medievalist eyes they look a bit more Anglo-Saxon. I try to avoid too much of the gimmicky looking stuff. As to the Elmo skin sporran, well I would rather it were a full mask.
