Milquetoast?
It’s an excellent word, means a timid, meek, or unassertive person. I love it since it sounds like exactly what it is “”milktoast” sounds boring, unappealing, and bland, just like milquetoast people.. it’s an effective synonym regardless if intended or not :)
They know. They were correcting a misspelling.
I know, but it’s not really a misspelling though, Milquetoast was named after milktoast.
This thread evolved into something deliciously delightful! Thank you! ❤️

My first intro to it was Milquetoast the Cockroach from Bloom County. It all makes perfect sense :)
just put milksteak, she'll know what is.
I like mine with a side of jellybeans, raw.
Thanks for the giggle 🤭
