why do so many people not know the difference between a teapot and a kettle?

@piebob@metasocial.com I don’t think I would know if I hadn’t watched a lot of British TV… I grew up with “anything that holds tea is a teapot, anything that holds coffee is a coffee pot.” Kettle is just not a word I encountered often. Could be a regional thing, I grew up outside of Milwaukee.

@piebob@metasocial.com Because most people are wrong. About everything and specifically tea.
