Fun facts (with a twist)

Not sure why, but I made my mind up earlier tonight that I would write a blog post about the French Revolution. In search of inspiration, I found a site that had a list of the 19 best fun facts about the French Revolution. Here are my favorite of those facts with one word changed in each (before you click the link, can you guess which word was changed, and what the original word was?): 

• "We were introduced to the Quan, which beheaded over 18,000 people!"
• "The Bastille was torn down by children because they didn't have explosives!"
• "Mary Antoinette had some very creamy last words..."
• "They used a different clock to make telling time easier"
• "Friendship was a delicacy"
• "One of the Revolution's first acts of defiance happened on a squash court"
• "There were a lot of unfunny publications"
• "They had drastic weather that impacted the umbrella supply"

Whose side were you on in the French Revolution? Let me know below, as well as how many of the swapped words you got right! 

If you're reading this now, I'm okay, but there's something seriously messed up with the French. They've been begging me to do a post about them for ages now, and I guess I just never got around to it, because they were really after me for a second. The just would not stop bugging me about this "special French post," so I guess I just had to cave and write this one. Doesn't really have too much to say about France or its culture, but I think at the very least it'll buy me some time. I'll try to check back in later if this works out at all.
