Seven months on and my local Morrisons is advertising Smores - I'm not sure if they sell them though.

Sorry, S'mores, I still don't know what they are, some kind of dessert?

i would not recommend putting these things on a s'mores as it would render it inedible.

However I feel like one very American thing is the idea of “tastings” and “learning” about cheese, wine, craft beer, sausage, whiskey, pickle relish or whatever. It’s this modern day bougie flipside of our impoverished food culture. It’s still a huge improvement of course.

Again though, that's one of those things where British English has changed, whereas Americans are still using English terminology from the 1600s. A theatre was anywhere where audiences watched a performance, including anatomical dissections (we still use surgical theatre, of course).

Australian usage, too - and there are plenty of standalone theatres, or rooms in art museums, that aren’t dedicated cinemas but show movies sometimes. (Is the term “lecture theatre” not used in Scotland or England, for a raked-seating room in a university or conference venue?)

referring to "new wave" when talking about post-punk
― ( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) (jim in vancouver), Thursday, 21 February 2019 20:25 (five years ago) link
i recall watching vh1 as a child and remember they would say new wave was influenced by post punk
i don't hear anyone with a serious interest in music use the genres interchangeably
with music genres, though, there are so many dilettantes and uninitiated that it wouldn't surprise me if non-americans made this mistake, too
