I guess we figured it out in the end.

Thanks for thinking along with me, Ed!

This is weird, I just experienced the same thing. Never happened to me before, ever. Didn't do anything weird, not anything I can think of anyway...

It wasn't the darn ad blocker, then anyway? Oh-oh. I hope I didn't just discover a whole new bug!

I don't think I have ad blocker activated, so...

Hmmm. I can post in this thread but not reply in the other. Technic admins?

I know English is not your first language - although native speakers often get idioms and other phrases wrong too - so absolutely no judgement in my saying this, but I thought you might find it interesting to know the phrase is 'kit and caboodle'. It's from a soldier's kit and all his other stuff (caboodle [or kaboodle, either spelling is fine] is a corruption of 'boodle' to fit well into the phrase

).

Though a caboodle of kittens would be really cool

I want!

OMG. Thank you *so much* for telling me that. Kit and caboodle. Kit and caboodle. Haha. I'm the one that hardly makes a mistake and I pride myself on that. Darn it.

I should have looked it up, but honestly, I thought that's what that was.

Hahaha this really makes me laugh.
Never heard of the phrase though.

I laughed really hard about a scene in a Netflix show (European, about witches and werewolves, really cool) called 'Half Bad' where the French witch (male) tells the main character (British witch, also male) about the beautiful french countryside: "Yes, you like it here don't you? You're a country pumpkin!"
And the British witch laughs and says: "It's a country bumpkin you idiot!"
I love when people from different cultures come together

I just got hit with this too... but tbh I'm not about to remove my uBlock Origin over it. But further up-thread it looks like it might not even be related to content blockers, so this is very strange that several of us are randomly getting this.
