      @gomisensei Bone apple tea!

      Scrapping where I come from means getting in a fight. Or trashing something/destroying a car

          @ashpool So scrapping is what scavengers do whence scraping their loot?

          Scraping is what they do when scraping the loot, scraping the muck and grime off it with some kind of small knife.

          Scrapping is what they do when they disagree about how much loot everyone gets!

          Then they may decide to scrap the whole thing, scrape together some scraps and hope they never get into such a scrape again! English is fucked.

          Also just so ya know, whence means "from where" so it made that sentence read a bit strangely :) So like "We went to Dusseldorf, whence Kraftwerk began their domination of the world". haha you caught it :) You could say 'when', 'while' or 'whilst' there too. Again English is fucked.
