if I hear the expression "it takes a village" on more fucking time I will quit my job and become a baker

It takes a village to support a successful bakery.
It takes a village to bake a cake! Farmers gotta harvest the wheat, millers grind it to flower, Aunt Mae's chickens gotta provide the eggs, etc....
The only thing I know about you is that you said this. I'm fully convinced that you'd make an excellent baker.
Well, I didn't say "it takes a village". I merely used the word "village".
Yea but I agree with the sentiment of the commenter you're replying to.

It's unfortunately a loaded word now.
