No, but “bejabbers,” often “sure and bejabbers,” is associated with the “silly Irishman” trope. While I don’t remember him ever saying it, that little leprechaun could say “Sure and bejabbers, they’re after me Lucky Charms!” all in the same accent.
I’m not OP, but “bejabbers,” while it’s a mild swearword that could be used by anyone, was often associated with the Irish, and making fun of their speech patterns.
So a phone alarm would wake you but not a phone on vibrate? Sounds pretty normal to me. I’d wake up to a vibrating phone unless it’s 4am my deepest sleep time, but I’m a light sleeper.
Most people also follow a curvy path of lighter and deeper sleep cycles through the night.
Stealing and parroting others’ work is what they both do best! And think of the savings!!!
Teach your kids to talk wrong

Most adults I know who study a foreign language do so in order to speak it, perhaps visit that country. In languages that build words from letters, the phonemes are important to meaning. Obviously “heresy” is very different from “hearsay,” but sow and sow are different words that sound different, while sew and so are also different but sound the same. It’s especially important in order to appreciate literature, poetry, music, and jokes.
Personally I cut cubes first, makes freezing and thawing easier. Drain but don’t press. Spread in a layer until frozen, then you can put into a bag or container.
When English-speaking kids are taught to read, and to spell, it’s very much an out-loud process, using phonics, and methodically covers the various pronunciation of all the letters’ sounds. “Sound it out” is the first step in decoding written words. Then of course there’s using context clues to figure out what word you’ve heard before could be spelled using those letters’ possible sounds. And it’s not until later, once all the common rules and exceptions of pronunciation are automatic, that you start “reading to learn” and attempt words you’ve never heard before.
Tbf, you’re not wrong about the inconsistency of English, it’s because we stole words, phrases, entire dialects from so many sources. And sometimes we kept the original pronunciation, other times we rudely imposed our phonetic expectations of the time and place when we stole them. Also the “correct” pronunciation for many words is different in different English-speaking countries.
On the plus side for you, that means most people are pretty lenient about what we consider “fluent,” and make allowances for accent. Unless they’re a racist asshole in the first place. When you mispronounce a word because you’re following phonetic rules but that word breaks them, most of us can recognize that version because we did the same thing when learning to read.

I’ve substituted sesame seeds for tahini in hummus before, toasting them and then blitzing them in the blender before adding the other ingredients. I always make my hummus in a blender so it’s fluffy and smooth. But with squash you might need a food processor instead, and it might not puree the sesame seeds enough.
Israeli experts in using sexual violence as a genocidal strategy, eh?
Agreed, although I prefer silicone rather than rubber these days, it holds up better with heat.
They start small, and get big like that if they’re undisturbed. Show up in lawns sometimes too. Taste sour, in a nice way.
So, a GOP pollster that says “changing minds” is part of its polling process…
