Yep! And those hosts bend over backwards. Like here's a spare room, here's some local chocolates from our town chocolatier. I made these jerkies. You're invited to our 8pm fireplace time and have s'mores.

It was a real community. They still exist. But they're overshadowed by shitty Airbnbs that want you to clean the gutters and mop the floors now for twice the price of a hotel.

jerkies

Reading the plural form of "jerky" makes me feel oddly uneasy.

Is that just like... several pieces of beef jerky or deer jerky?

I'm something of a jerkonnoisseur myself, and I have never considered the plural form of Jerky. This is like experiencing semantic satiation for the first time.

Mass nouns and their use is one of the most difficult features in the English language for English as a second language learners.

People do this with the word "code" all the time, and I have a strong urge to correct it. But I usually don't.
