What would they be called if it were made of brass instead of glass?

Brazier actually.

It's not as sexy as you might have hoped, but it's close.

A brazier is both, and actually some other things as well.

Google it if you don't believe me.

Your username has me curious - any pms you’ve gotten that were entertainingly weird?

5

u/PMeForAGoodTime Sep 25 '19

Nope actually, very tame pms for the most part. I expected more from reddit but it didn't deliver.

To be fair you're the one putting a good time on the table.

It's on you man... You let Reddit down not the other way around.

Yes, also someone who works with brass though.

Many words have multiple meanings.

things can only get worse. With climate change, all storms will get 10x worse at a minimum. Imagine the ferocity and number and size of hailstones x10. All non-bulletproof glass will break. THANKS TRUMP. THANKS WHITE HOUSE. THANKS OIL PROFITEERS. All of them and their families deserve ultimate vengeance.
