I've never heard of that before but then I'd never heard of someone being "woke" until recently either.
It's hard to keep up with a language that seems to have a new vocabulary with each generation.
But getting back to the littles, which are becoming bigger every day it seems.
I photographed one crawling up the outside of my window a day or two ago.
When I grew up these were called grasshoppers.
The little ones were just called baby grasshoppers.
But now they're known as "littles" and there must be thousands of them in my area.
They hop everywhere when I go outside to do a teensy bit of weed pulling in the back yard or when I walk across the street to get the mail.
I'm reminded of the very old expression: a plague of locusts.
So far the trees and shrubbery around our home seem to be impervious to the pests.
Or maybe they just don't like the flavors.
Doesn't seem to stop their growth though.
Maybe they're eating my weeds!
In which case I may have to adopt them.
