Donut is just an American variation of the spelling, and considering they're talking about what Americans call this, donut is perfectly acceptable, and maybe even a more correct usage than the doughnut spelling
Damn i have always had it in my head as dough knot. And it never looks right when i write it out.
If its more correct, then why have I been nutting in the dough all this time?
those kinda look like greek loukmas/Turkish lokmas
That there is a Timbit
a Tim Hortons™️ Timbit™️
Am I the only one that finds the whole "fake British words" genre of meme painfully unfunny?
Yes
Maybe if Brits would stop saying ridiculous things lol
You go enjoy your hushpuppies, elephant ears, bear claws, snickerdoodles and hootenannies.
All those fixins at a hootenanny sounds like my kind of shindig!
You have to say snoggletarts out loud with a British accent.
I think you could even convince English people that "merry fizzlebombs" and "upsy stairsies" are some kind of regional slang. Might even get away with "breaddystack" or "rickedy-pop" if you play your cards right.
I'll come up the apples and have a butchers, but if you're telling porkies then there's gonna be some argy bargy.

To be honest, they should be called "Donut Plugs"
Make sure yours are flared before you eat them or they could get stuck
Mouth beads
But then 5 of them would need to be connected in a line, right?
And oral beads would be more accurate

In the UK these are called doughnuts.
The presence of a hole isnt a pre-requisite to being deemed a doughnut here.
Calling something that has zero holes a 'donut hole', will absolutely have a local refer to you as a doughnut tho...
It's called a doughnut hole because it's implied to be the piece of dough that was punched out to make a regular circular doughnut that has a hole in it.
Oh I understand that. I was just being facetious; my point was more to do with the definition of a hole, and how it's used here to describe something that definitely is not a hole.
If we're pedantic, then the doughnut hole is the middle bit of the original doughnut, now that this part has been punched out.

But how do you differentiate between a doughnut ( o ) and a doughnut o. I'd be so pissed if I asked for a doughnut and someone handed me this tiny shit.
Deez nut holes
Timbits. even if they are not form Timmy's
Tim Horton's sucks now so they should always be "not from Timmy's"
