DAMN IT IT'S WORKING TOO FAST
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Also, so far as I can determine you never answered the question about the pommes.

I like marmite, on hot toast, very nice.

Also, I thought Bovril was a beefy hot drink for old people that like drinking gravy out of a mug.

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

Must have missed it, even on the reread.

Also, rereading my responses has lead me to believe I suffered a major majunction of the funny last night. Damn it.

It might have been on a different thread. I have trouble keeping them straight sometimes. And wtf is a majunction? Is that like a cross between a malfunction and a disjunction?

Lazy and inaccurate Toby old man, surely the far more disturbing part for Ameicans is that in so many ways they are us, we didn't colonise them, unless all our forumites are Sioux or Cherokee - in which case, well played for being good sports about the whole stealing your land, the rape and the genocide.

I think for the average US citizen talking to the British and more broadley the Europeans is like taking the piss out of your dad, you might think it's funny now but wait till you grow up and find out your exactly the same.

Oh and Illy I checked, technically they have stopped using our language, it's something called US English they speak.

Well, if you REALLY want my opinion....

Lasagna.

Oh, and doubtlessly there has been some OZZIE-POMMY bickering...soemone fill me in on the past 6 pages.

EDIT: Mind you, I hate Vegemite. It's so foul even bacteria won't eat the stuff.

The Ozzy-Pommie bickering has taken the sideline, as Brits and Yanks go head to head on the jello/jelly/jam issue. Which is silly, as jello and jelly are the exact same thing.

Jello is a brand name for gelatin dessert, eaten with a spoon. Jelly is gelatin spread on toast or sandwiches.

Wiki says brits call jello jelly. For this, we will mock you. If you continue to use this silly terminology, we will dress up as indians and throw jello in the harbor. If you do not mend your ways at that point, we will dress up again and this time through jelly in the harbour just to show you we're serious.

All our harbours have been put on full jelly-alert. You either need to admit you had intimate relations with that woman, or we will attack with marmite.

Speaking of which, I am currently eating toast (from the orange packet!) covered in beery marmite, cut-up bits of bacon and grated cheese, all grilled. Food of the gods. There is nothing possible that can be done to improve this meal.

No RLY we call Jelly 'Jelly', you call Jelly 'Jello' simply because of the dominance of the brand. I'm afraid we are definitely right on this one. It's like how we call a PA system a Tannoy or a Vacum Cleaner a Hoover, they are both wrong as they are brand names.

I do like peanut butter and jam on a sandwich though.

but you are using a brand name for something as a general term for all gelatin deserts.
Is EVERY SINGLE gelatin desert called JELLO?

Or you could eat actual meat instead of varmits and marmites.

I bet you silly Brits would like Scrapple too.

If this was sold in McDonalds, I would eat there every day, breakfast lunch and dinner.
