all-purpose flour is a lie. [More:] You can't use it as a roofing material.
You can make delicious cake, though.

It works just fine at stanching a bleeding chicken toenail. I'd say that's pretty damn all-purpose.

Would you feel better if they called it "most-purpose"?

How about a "whole lot of purpose"?

Or you can make a crappy cake! That's pretty flexible right there. It makes a lousy nail polish, though. Unless you're a chicken.

Also a lie - when your personal trainer says "this will be a lot of fun". Except, of course, that she has fun watching our pain. So, not a complete lie, rather a half-truth based on deliberate omission I guess.

On the contrary: you just need to add salt and water and bake for an hour.

That sounded a lot more profound when it was bouncing around my head, and before I realized a stray "f" doesn't mean much.

I have heard from good authority that so-called all-porpoise flour does contain some tuna.

At least it's purposeful. You cannot get that with just any old type of flower.
