Rebar
My glorious post of glory remains half-written. Instead I will post this question.
The traffic report lady on the radio told of an overturned truck with a load of rebar. Another one of the wacky hosts said, "You don't even know what rebar is!"
She said, "Yes, I do. I googled it."
So she didn't know what rebar was before she googled it. I marveled at that for a minute and then wondered how someone who hasn't use rebar would ever know what it was. I used it in high school so I knew.
So, if you would, please answer this survey for me:
Without googling, do you know what rebar is ?

Yes
No

i voted yes, and i have not ever personally used rebar.
i think people that do traffic reporting and such are in it because
they're trained in diction more than construction materials.
but still. i ain't trained in neither! so whateva!!
oh, and i thought of another country saying i like: "dag-nab-it"
to be used in place of "dad-gum-it" or "dog-gone-it"

@Thats_Ridiculous - and actually used in the place of a far more profane expression

I know what it is because people have told me, but I've never used it and I wouldn't think anyone was ignorant for not knowing.

I knew it had to do with construction, but wouldn't know a piece of rebar if I drove over it!

Sure! Rebar is when you go back to the bar you visited the night before to get a little "hair of the dog that bit you."

Yes, I know what rebar is! I dig some up out of the yard the other day.

See, now you aren't sure if I do actually know what rebar is because it could seem like I dug up some rhubarb. But it was rebar.

Rebar scares me. Can you put rebar in a barditch?
