The rule for that in my little corner of the country is if you roll up fruit and/or cheese inside it, then it's definitely a crepe.


Whats this then?

Also if your complaining about how we pronounce Jaguar, what the fuck is up with Hyundai... "Hundy?!" fuck that!


Hyundai is Korean....


And, given that we don't really speak 'English', it's unsurprising we butcher that word as well.

I agree, and it's not like I speak Korean but when I see "Hyundai" written down I don't see how people can look at it and say hundy.

I love threads where people who speak British English act like arrogant, superior jerks. It is obviously ironic, but also amusing.

Pretty sure this thread was *us* trolling them, though :)





Oh right...

IT'S 'VACATION,' YOU EFFETE AFTERNOON TEA DRINKING LIMEY BASTARDS :MAD:


Well - Give them a little sympathy: At least we don't have Cheese~Eating Surrender~Monkeys as our neighbors to the East. Have to give them a little credit for having to deal with that...

While that may be true, it's still amusing how a certain someone's panties are in a bunch over it. I won't venture into the discussion, but it is rather ironic.

Sorry old chap, but I dont think that word means what you think it does. Typical undereducated colonist, horsewhippings too good for the lot of you.

Actually it means exactly what I think it means and the whoosh sound you heard was the point sailing over your head.

I'm sure you belive that.

On a separate note do you find it difficult to find spoons in your house but have a surfet of knives?

Oh and protip, take a brolly if it looks like rain, particularly to your wedding. :sneaky:

Sorry old chap, sheepfuckerbloke has your number.

The brits are also very kinky and good with whips. I think you should take him up on his offer of a horse whipping...

***thinks wistfully about those 6 months in London and all those fetish clubs***

lol. He really doesn't have my number, but in order to explain the irony I'd have to escalate this thread into something it currently isn't.
