Been a while

I wouldn't consider this to be a return from hiatus, just a sort of broaching of the water.

Anyways, having a conversation when I mention that I was in the peanut gallery.

I've never seen this draw a blank before, but I found myself having to explain the concept.

For those who don't know, the origin of the phrase it theatrical. Being associated with the uppermost tier of seating most prone to hecklers, and in America the heckling was accompanied by peanuts that were sold to the audience.

At least I knew the history of the concept.
