    I suppose eventually I’ll come around to accepting it, if it persists. But these are not the same; the intent behind them is different. “LOL” is an acronym, not a censorship workaround. Saying it out loud is purely ironic. Maybe the zoomers saying Tiktokisms out loud is also ironic (I’ve personally never heard it directly), but the reason it exists in the first place is stupid

    Dollar Tree bought Family Dollar. Hence them being the same store (it’s not two dollar stores right next to each other).

    Why two signs, idfk. Maybe they were worried people would be upset that their beloved Family Dollar was replaced with Dollar Tree, so they’re easing people in by making it clear they’re the same thing

    They aren’t really necessary; a butter dish works fine if you’re using butter regularly. You can also just plop the stick in the dish, while with a bell you have to manually pack it in there (I assume? Never used one personally)

    Also the main reason is probably just unfamiliarity

    You put the butter in the bell part. The butter sticks. You then put some water in the crock and put the bell in the crock. The bell/butter displaces some water and it prevents air from getting to the butter.

    Imo it’s silly; there’s no real issue just leaving butter in a dish at room temp.
