The insurance company plaques on houses is, or should be here in rural Tennessee.

It happened a year or two before I moved down here in 2016. There are a lot of mobile homes around here and the fire dept. would never reach them in time to save them anyways.

Pass three and you're down to 721000. Four leaves 648000 and the fifth 584010. So five successive decimations wouldn't kill 50% of your initial population.

"Fucking the dog" is a common expression in Canada

I’ve never heard anyone in Canada say “shagging the dog”

Maaan the Tortoise story always makes me so sad! The poor darlings :(...

The expression isn't "shagging the dog" - especially since Shag isn't a Canadian or American phrase. Although it may have be rephrased in her case. While the phrasing may be understandable, she got the definition of the saying wrong. The expression is "You Really Screwed the Pooch on That One" or shortened to "Screwed the Pooch" which means making a huge inexcusable mistake - typically by not paying enough attention to what you were doing. It isn't about not working hard - it's about making a massive mistake. It's funny seeing weird spins on expressions, or how saying the same thing in different words doesn't sound right. Like how "We have no time to stand around looking pretty" is not the same as "This isn't the time for being sexy doing nothing"
