This is when you purchase a property that satisfies both your housing needs but is like a cottage in the sense that it is serves both purposes. A residence that allows you to have the luxuries of home but is ‘out of town’ and may be on or near the water in a non-urban environment. Therefore, it serves both purposes in one residence. A hybrid property that combines two interests conveniently into one.
We can’t afford to buy both a cottage and keep the house so we are going to gey a cottahouse out of town.

GAFFE is an acronym for - Greenwashing Attempt For Fundraising Efforts. There is now a prevalent effort for NGO’s and other nonprofit organizations to raise money based on fears that have little or no scientific evidence to support there causes. However, these organizations will shamelessly propagate misinformation to create fear, sympathy and anger to promote their causes in an effort to raise money for themselves.
Did you see that NGO showing a picture of a turtle with a plastic bag around it’s neck? When confronted, they admitted to the BBC that it was a photoshopped image and the BBC retracted the story when this was found out.. just another example of a G.A.F.F.E. that is being used in media and on-line

Carbonwashing is similar to Greenwashing. Carbonwashing is the practice of virtue signaling by companies or individuals to proclaim that they are purchasing "carbon credits" or similar type carbon producing offsets as a means to polish their corporate image. While, in the background they may or may not be doing this as it is a very shadowy audit process to actually prove that you are indeed having any impact whatsoever further to whatever metrics you are using to illustrate.
I just came from a conference and they were speaking of "carbon offsets" and "carbon capture" credits for their business. I'm not sure that these companies are actually measuring this properly or even partaking in sames. I think many of them are just Carbonwashing us.

From the storybook, “A Bimulous Night” the word has no formal definition. Bimulous describes the ideal nighttime setting. A warm full moonlit night with a few clouds that play amongst the moon beams. Warm, quiet but not silent, as the frogs and the crickets play along. Innocent and completely safe, one can walk a path lit only by the moon and have not a care. Indeed, a Bimulous night is the perfect setting after the sun sets. Perhaps to reflect and be thankful for peace and serenity it brings.
She walked only lit by the moon as the peacefulness enveloped her. She was at complete calm in this truly bimulous night.

The creamsicle and very tasty ‘low/no carb” alcoholic beverage that tastes like a creamsicle from the ‘ice cream man’. Recipe: 1-2oz of Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum and Fresca poured over ice. You won’t believe it! Cheers!
I had nothing left in the fridge except Fresca and some Sailor Jerry. Boom!! Created the refreshing “skinny creamsicle”

When a real life situation that would normally be very difficult to imagine is now unbelievably happening in real time.
Covid19 is now “getting movie bad” . Remember those movies like “Contagion” and “I am Legend”? This is getting tragically horrifying
