Important lesson here. When you don't give them the reaction they're looking for, they'll get bored and leave you alone.

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

The ‘deck’ in “Deck the Halls” means “to decorate.”
But, it is not related or a shortening of ‘decorate.’
It comes from the Dutch word meaning “to cover.”
You also use it when you’re all “decked out.”

Editors have a really hard job, and the good ones can make something unreadable readable, and the great ones can make something unreadable into something good. But they're basically invisible, until someone tries to write without one.

Can Gen Z Get Rid of Their iPhones?
