n. grilling

O, still grilling, asked the nerd, in a like high-browed way. She got a little angry, nothing worked in the more sophisticated technical sphere, while the campaigners were still trying to figure things out. She murmured some anger into her webcam, and concluded: well then, darlings, keep on grilling, that will give me at least a slight opportunity to answer your ridiculous questions - might help us all to a good laugh, might it not?
