I’d ask your caregiver if you need help getting dressed today, that’s not really something we can do over the internet for you.
Ooh, zing! An age joke - wildly original and clever!
Let me help you, since you seem unclear on how this works: some people use the phrase 'goalies are witches', other people use the phrase 'goalies are voodoo'. Both are fine, and make the same point.
Telling other people that one of those isn't correct, makes you a) wrong (something you seem obsessed about), and b) childish.
Also, nobody cares. JFC

I love the fact the Flames seem to take a flier on a goalie every draft. I like the strategy but it does show that when it comes to goalies there’s really just no way to know what you’re getting.
The more I hear about Zarubin, the more I like the pick.

When did Sigalet start his video analytics approach to goalies as part of our draft strategy?
Covid year? I like this pick but curious if this approach of leaving all goalie decisions to him is producing results. We should start to know in next year or two if this works.

Nobody but you does, but it’s fun that you have these little quirks. I just thought you’d want to know why someone was asking you to explain “witches” - because saying “goalies are witches” doesn’t actually explain it, since nobody uses that phrase.
Sorry that it’s so upsetting to you. Relax old timer.

Um, people do actually. Lots. Maybe you're not familiar with it, which is fine, but a bit weird because some people on CP (not just me) use it. But that's cool if you've never noticed.
It's like the 'gitch', 'gotch' and 'gontch' thing. Different people have different phrases for the same thing, usually a geographic thing, but sometimes things just evolve.
One day, when you're a little older, you'll have perspective on these sorts of things, and you'll realise that it's all good. Until then, I don't know, I guess you'll just have to fight through it. Hopefully you learn not to let it bother you too much, because I want you to be happy.

No bother here, was just trying to help out of my immense respect for you as a poster
I looked it up because I wanted to prove myself wrong, since I was just trying to be helpful and explain why someone was confused by your (in my assumption) incorrect use of the phrase.
And if people use it, lots even, I could see why you’d think it was weird and offensive that I wasn’t respecting your regional dialect (that would be very rude of me!).
Unfortunately, my search didn’t help us prove you right. Here’s what I found:
- You’re the first person to refer to goalies as “witches” on the forum (in 2016)
- Outside of two other singular mentions over the past 8 years, you’re the only one who has ever used it
- Both of those singular mentioned occurred years after you started using it, and nobody but you has used the phrase in the last 4 years
- If you Google different iterations of the phrase, there is one result! Unfortunately, it’s a CP thread where you use the phrase. Outside of that, there are zero results where people refer to goalies as witches
I feel happier now that we’ve resolved this a little more, so you got what you wanted! You can see now why I was confused and disrespectful, since there’s no evidence of it anywhere.
Maybe this is one of those oral history things where it was common so long ago that they didn’t have anything to record it on. I’d love to hear more about the origins of the phrase and what regional dialect it’s most common in! Never a bad time to learn from your elders
