take with a grain of salt

To take a statement with 'a grain of salt' or 'a pinch of salt' means to accept it but to maintain a degree of skepticism about its truth.

The idea comes from the fact that food is more easily swallowed if taken with a small amount of salt. (take with a grain of salt)

grainds

Gains that are produced/occur during the grind. It is a combination of "Grind" and "Gains."

The grainds I had yesterday in Philly were phenomenal and really make the grind worth it.

Ad Graminum

An attack on an opponent's grammar to completely discredit his/her argument.

See Ad hominem.

Faiz: I spent a good half-hour typing out an argument for nothing, because someone used Ad Graminum and pointed out my "your" that should have been "you're".

Julian: You deserved that.

Brian: The Lakers are fundamentally a much better team, they're offense is-
Julian: HA! "THEIR"!
Brian: Fuck you.

Hover-grating

A careless method of grating cheese by holding the block of cheese and grater high above the food, causing it to disperse everywhere but the intended dish.

Characterised by fragments of grated cheese found everywhere around the kitchen afterwards - often accompanied by a larger, dry block of remnant cheese left out for many days after said cheese-grating incident.

Particularly common in Rootes P 2nd kitchen, and generally anywhere inhabited by a German-Italian partnership.

Dude 1: "Awww wtf Jasper, there's cheese everywhere on the table again!"
Jasper: "Sorry dude, Francesco and I made pesto pasta last night and we were hover-grating the cheese over it."
Dude 1: "Aw not again dammit."
Pit: "In Luxembourg..."

Hover-grating is the only way to truly enjoy a German-Italian dish.
