 What ever happened to ‘make yourself at home’?

(Note: Many have written in suggesting
that this may originate from the Rosemary

is a common error in translation – similar
instances can be seen with examples such as
‘Come on my country’, etc.)

(NOTE: many have written in
saying that ‘I hate myself and I want to die’
may have been taken from a Nirvana song.)

The Batards burned it to a crisp!

(Note: A few have written in to say

that ‘Batard’ means both bastard and

a type of bread in French)
