Oh awesome and very interesting thank you!
What is it an eggcorn of? Acorn? And what’s the origin?
Rephrased to it’s intended meaning, that would be:
ELI5 how come it seems now [that] the old [wives’] tale about Vietnamese people eating pets [is now being applied to] immigrants into the USA?
What’s the origin of the term eggcorn? A brief scan of the link didn’t answer this for me. Is eggcorn itself an eggcorn?
What do you mean by freezing your work number?
It could be fine in certain contexts - for example medical contexts - but I think an important distinction that made it stand out in your comment was that you used female for women but didn’t use the equivalent “male” for men 😊
