I am outraged by that bone-petite. Which bone is petite? Why does their bacon have bones?!

I wouldnβt assume someone who writes bone petite would know that the second βtβ is near-silent, so I went with the phonetic emoji alphabet version. π
frenchy here : the second "t" isn't silent at all, you're confusing it with "petit", the masculine version, where the second "t" is indeed silent.
I think they were saying the second "t" in appΓ©tit is silent (which it is), not the one in petite.
I understand; I said βnear-silentβ because I donβt know of a better way to describe it (diminished? unemphisised? π€·π»ββοΈ)
Mind you, my experience with French is mostly limited to Duolingo and Google Translate - and could very well be wrong.
So bone apple tooth? Sounds completely off.
I was aiming for teeth, so thatβs on me for only including one! π
lol I see, bone apple teeth I guess

That sounds more like bon appΓ©tit than bone-petite
Ummm.... Well.... Yes.....
r/boneappletea has been a thing for almost two decades at this point, and that subreddit was dedicated to people misspelling words and phrases with spellings that indicated that the person had only heard, but never seen the word.

I always thought that's like a joke, now i saw so many americans say bon apple tea that i'm so sure anymore.
"Bone apple tea" is often used as a meme to reference malapropisms like this, so that's probably how you've seen it used... However, it originates from someone actually making that mistake and someone making a subreddit about it.
Bone-petite is as much French as a neo-Nazi will ever master. This guy is probably considered sophisticated in MAGA circles.
Considering who wrote it, it should read βboner petiteβ
He's just letting him know his penis is small

The stapes/stirrup bone is pretty petite.
Very skinny (ribs and hipbone very visible) and small breasted woman.
not my stank bone for sure.
Also, on top of being raging racists,isn't this kinda ... Pedo? ... Bone ... Petite ... I mean, really ...
Hmmmmmm curious as to why this was your first thought........
Right? I'm into petite women because I'm 6'4 and the best sex I've ever had was when I was 19yo banging a 5'2" 34yo fit mom. Petite does not equal young.
If you speak french that does sound like pedo shit...
