comment Hidden meaning in “Got milk?”
Hi Joe! Yeah, I can see it's pretty complicated! But you know what? You did a great job walking me through! You did provide a lot of very helpful and deep details, you know what I mean? And again, the whole questions is not that simple, right? It may look simple on the surface, but it's really not! So thank you for your time and effort! You know what? You really have deeply explained the matter to me!

comment Can and can't pronunciation

comment “Thanks for having me”
Ok, thank you. The reason I used that phrase is that I'd heard it many times on the radio (American NPR station), where people who talked with the program host over the phone (reporters or those being interviewed) would say it quite often.
