Wait, you thought it was for soup? In my experience, crucibles are mostly for melting metals or in science labs. Your mileage may vary, but I've always seen them used in stuff like foundries or chemistry classes. It's funny how words can mean different things to different people. Take this with a grain of salt, but the industrial use is pretty common. Still, it's cool to learn how others see things.

Ever notice how the 'right thing' gets super complicated the second real people are involved? My professional opinion as an accountant is that the store's loss is probably a rounding error (seriously, beans and bread aren't breaking the bank). But my human opinion is that calling the cops over bread feels like using a flamethrower to kill a spider. Guess I'd just quietly hope they get a better break soon and mind my own business.

Guess your garage smells like a lube job now, @nancy_reed.

Wait, is that actually right? Repurposed means it got a new use, but reclaimed is more about saving the old material itself. Maybe that crazy history is what makes your plywood feel flat now.

Is this why contracts are basically a list of definitions now? I see this everywhere with stuff like "creamy Italian" salad dressing meaning five different textures unless you say the specific brand.
