Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

i know that sometimes being de la guimauve can be figurative for being super excessively cute/mushy/sappy but i cant figure out the pertinence beyond that

Same but considering it's « à la guimauve » and not « de la guimauve » I think it's actual syrup lol

distil thy events into a syrup that you may consume them later on

#

plus that pesky adverbial pronoun « en » referring to something that isn't in the extract given to us

#

thought the en was relating to the important events

#

make the metaphorical marshmallow syrup out of them
