Thought this was worth a share. A few members have brought to my attention: @michaelmilitello
@JEBIV
@AZ2FL
that a couple of my girls (grills) as I like to think of them, are "Caddywampus."
I've heard the term before but wasn't sure what made mine caddywampus.
The last time I heard that word, was when a friend and I were installing his washing machine and we both noticed how Uneven it sat. I think I said something stupid in a poorly executed southern accent, " this here warshing sheen is wampus!" Stupid in any context. But to me, it meant when something is askew or not level. I didn't realize that when I was taking apart kettles to clean them up, I was failing to reinstall the legs in the right position to the bowl. Homer moments "D'OH"
Thanks AZ2FL \m/ \m/ for the definition as it pertains to Weber! Maybe thats a good topic; Word of the day from the "Weber dictionary."
No, that's probably plagiarism.
I now know what Caddywampus means as it relates to a kettle. Thanks WKC for educating me instead of continuing to laugh at my ignorance (idiocy) as I surely would have done to any of you.
Thanks again to the members above (way above) and for everyone else here. This group has been a fun and informative recreation the last few months!
No more Caddywampus in 2021! Put it on a bumpersticker. Just kick me some royalties. I accept pork butts and briskets or weber parts. I like my GIRLS accessorized

There is a WKC Glossary at the top of the Weber Grill Forum (Grills & Accessories) section. It is a locked sticky. It is a great informational guide to help one navigate the Forum lingo and slang tems.

BTW, your kettles look so much better now that the legs are positioned correctly.
Thanks C2Ful!

@FatBottomGrills Your welcome, just trying to help a grill fellow out. Glad you have a grate sense of humor.
When I first joined the WKC, I also posted a caddywampus grill picture. It was pointed out rather quickly.
