[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]British Columbia. That's almost as much of a rip-off as New England.

Well, the Queen seems to like us. [/quoteost_uid0]

I've met the Queen.

Well, OK, I've been near the Queen.

He car drove right past me at the Commonwealth Games in 1994. She looked vaguely like my Grandma.

[quoteost_uid0]Break out the Pommy jokes, Sa'ar. [/quoteost_uid0]

You don't just break out Pommy jokes. You have to wait for an opening and then let loose a torrent of scathing disdain.

(Translation: I can't think of any right now)[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0="PointyHairedJedi"]I live in Britain. It's my duty and my right to mock anyone who doesn't live on my side of the Atlantic.[/quoteost_uid0]
Then I'll cover your side

[quoteost_uid0]First, there were the Welsh, who prayed on their knees, and on their neighbours. Then there were the Scots, who kept the Sabbath, and anything else they could get their hands on. Then there were the Irish, who were never quite sure what it was they were fighting for, but were always ready to fight for it anyway. And finally, there were the English, who considered themselves a self-made nation, thus relieving the Almighty of a terrible responsibility. -- Peter Bleackley, in alt.fan.pratchett[/quoteost_uid0]

Kinda ironic, isn't it? [/colorost_uid0]

Oi! What d'you think I am? Stone the crows! Bloomin' Pom wouldn't know an Aussie if one whacked him with a cricket bat.

How's that, then? Truthfully, I'm only half Australian. Dad's Aussie, Mum's Canadian.

At least you didn't spell it 'Ozzie.'[/colorost_uid0]

I don't think I'd ever make that mistake - I absolutely hate that show. Really, mocking Aussies is second only to mocking the Sassenach (though it's not a good idea at the moment, as they somewhat outnumber me right now).[/colorost_uid0]

I guess I can't call you a Pommy, then. We'll mock the bluidy Sassenach together (even if most of my ancestry is English).[/colorost_uid0]

[/quoteost_uid0]

My Biology 11 teacher made 'sushi' in class one day. She used imitation crab meat, day-old congealed rice, the cheapest form of kelp wrapping she could find and a paper towel instead of a bamboo mat.

The Korean student wouldn't touch it. I followed her lead.

[quoteost_uid0]You godless HEATHEN. [/quoteost_uid0]

Correct on both counts, although 'heretic' might be a bit more accurate.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Hm. Two more triple-? sightings, in the descriptions for "Tapestry" and "A Matter of Time" on the all-seasons display.

Maybe they're conspiring to multiply and conquer the site, or even the world... :suspicious: :O[/colorost_uid0]
