“Nestled on 75 acres”

Wtf? It’s not nestled on anything.

It:

  • looms over 75 acres.
  • dominates the landscape on 75 acres.
  • towers over 75 acres
  • symbolizes the excesses of modern wealth on 75 acres
  • reminds one of the stark inequalities of modern America on 75 acres.

It does not “nestle.”

The book cites media reports that three quarters of five- to twelve-year-olds in the United Kingdom now spend less time outdoors than prison inmates, and one suspects statistics in the United States are little different. Jones also reminds us that:

in 2007, the words “acorn” and “buttercup” were taken out of the Oxford Children’s Dictionary, in favor of words like “broadband” and “cut and paste” to reflect changing usage of the language. “Hamster,” “heron,” “herring,” “kingfisher,” “lark,” “leopard,” “lobster,” “magpie,” “minnow,” “mussel,” “newt,” “otter,” “ox,” “oyster” and “panther” were also deemed archaic and removed.
