A little off subject, but does the Brit term “tucking into”, as in “tucking into their turkey dinner” get under anyone elses skin?

The only thing getting “tucked” in this White House is Obama into bed by ValJar, SuRice or whatever pathetic homo has assumed the Reggie Love portfolio.

No. If British terms bothered me I would not read articles on British sites.

No.

Tucker is a nickname for food.

Makes sense to me.
