Thanks for this. My reaction wasn't loud hilarity but quiet chuckling that went unheard under my deep sighs. This smug ignorance paraded with a knowledgeable tone isn't at all surprising: When I've gently corrected Yanks online who refer to the Irish language as 'Gaelic' (a language used in a nearby country known for its very hot peppers) I've been 'corrected' by many of them using a more markedly knowledgeable tone.

(As an afterthought, would anyone really expect better from someone who wrote a 'time-travel historical romance'?)

Especially one with… gratuitous rape scenes?

Who the fuck is this woman and why is she not in a psychiatric facility?

The pic of us all wearing Scotch Bonnets was hilarious.
