’druthersnoun · american slang
“If I had my druthers…”
Say “I’d rather” fast and often enough and it squishes into druthers — 19th-century American slang for your preferences: the things you’d pick, given the choice.
That’s exactly what this site is. Every movie, show, book, and game here has been watched, read, or played — then ranked into the order we’d pick them again. Not reviews, not ratings out of ten: just druthers, on the record.
The stray apostrophe in the wordmark is the one ’d rather left behind.
