Brachycephalic dogs are sort of like cab-over? Or maybe cab over trucks are b rachycephalic  trucks?

The third and fourth pic (especially the fourth), look like butter wouldn't melt in Sylvie's mouth, but you know inside she can be a tearaway when she wants to be.

I had to look up that idiom, I had no idea what the butter thing meant! Never heard that in Hawaii!

It’s a common one used here, often used to describe young children or animals with innocent looks and/or demure eyes.

I’ve just done some looking up, apparently it’s common used in the south of America.

I find it crazy how different areas of the U.S. use old English sayings, but not others.

I especially like them when they’ve been misheard , misunderstood , etc...

Like:

I couldn’t care less, often incorrectly said as, ‘I could care less’ (which when said incorrectly means you do care, just not a lot, when your actually trying to say you don’t care. Doh).

I was on tenterhooks, often incorrectly said as, ‘I was on tenderhooks’. (people often think tenterhooks doesn’t sound right and so say tenderhooks, but tenterhooks were hooks with a curve on the end and cloth was stret c hed and hooked over them to hold the cloth in place while it dried or was being worked on).

He was just a scapegoat, often incorrectly said as, ‘he was just an escape goat’. Lol. (a scapegoat comes from when a goat would be cast out having assumed all of the sins of the person sending out the animal).

Well in Hawaii there are some words we use that are more British, like rubbish. Mainlanders say garbage or trash, but some words like that have stuck around since they were there I guess.

What I love about Hawaii is the flag, yes it has the Union Flag as it’s canton, but the canton didn’t have the diagonal red lines from the flag of St. Patrick.

A fter the British left. The British later adopted the flag of St. Patrick within the Union Flag along with the flags of St. George and St. Andrew. For some reason I’ve yet to find, Hawaii adopted the new Union Flag as it’s canton.
