...have got lots and lots of pointy bits.

[Mince]

I find that hurtful - the pointy bits, I mean.

Pricks.

Pricks.

In plural? There's more than one Mince.....?

An interesting fact about a porcupine is.....wow, that was close. I nearly launched into those four paragraphs.

With that mirror there was.

I think the problem is that "Mince" is a word that can be singular or plural. In this case it's a name so it's singular, so it'd be "Prick".

Mince isn't plural. You can have a little bit of mince, or a lot of mince, but it's singular mince.

Mince plural is minces - and he does, so I believe.

If we both, individually, buy mince from the butcher, we each have some mince. Collectively, we still have mince, even though it's two lots of mince. It's not two minces. It's a collection of mince, plural, but still called mince.

Who does?

[Tarquin Thunderthighs lll]

But if I bought high quality steak mince, and you bought low quality, fatty, cholesterol-inducing cheap mince, we'd have two different minces.

and he does, so I believe.

Who does?

He does.
