The High School in Freedomtown (formerly known as Frenchtown) offers some special preparation courses in English for studying at colleges.
I find it odd that anybody even uses the term "french fries" any more. Everyone I know just calls them "fries". Nothing more.
How does that old joke go? Something like, "What does a liberal arts graduate say to their customer?"
"Would you like fries with that?"
God ,please let Walter be joking about the town.
Dyslexia, that is exactly what appeared in the text. I used cut-and-paste technique for making a quote.
that's hilarious, then. good to see they kept their sense of humour about it.
In other news, Starbucks' Fr*nch Vanilla has been changed to Expensive Stuff with some Vanilla Extract, Fr*nch Kissing has been renamed The Real Oral Sex and Fr*nch Toast will now be called Proto-Waffles. Details after the classic Gene Hackman film, The Freedom Connection.
This is funny, but no one in Israel renamed the Iraqi pita (round flat bread) even after Israel being shelled by Saddam's Scuds in 1991. It is still available in any bakery or supermarket, and it is called "an Iraqi pita".
I hereby accuse them of common sense. and intelligent priorties.
And they call themselves allies....Hmmph!
Ooh-ooh!..I got one. If congress has a lounge, what drink, will have to have a name change?
If Congress has a very good lounge, several drinks must have to change name.
We should welcome:
Freedom Afternoon,
Freedom Martini,
Freedom Monkey,
and specially:
Freedom Whore.
About the Wh*re and Monkey: let them remain Fr*nch.
C'mon you guys, you guys. What are we going to do about the dangerous "Black Russian"?
Replace it with "Black Bulgarian": Bulgarian language resembles Russian, and they also use Cyrillic fonts in their computers.
Yeah! And children can play with "Taiwanese sticks" while teenagers play "Taiwanese red light".
I make my own French fries and no one will take them away I tell ya!
Ok, gotta a coupla of items to bring to this here greasekitchen.
1. The British 'chips' are not 'fries'. They are much thicker, more like 3/8". They correct term would be that used by the Fren.. the Freedomlanders, 'pomme fritte'.
2. I seem to recall that it was the Spanish that first bought the potato to Europe. They are also big fans of deep-fried foods (did you know that the Japanese 'tempura' was originally a Portugeuse introduction). I'd say that either of those peoples were the first Europeans to deepfry potatoes.
<I've run with this idea as a new topic>
No more French Fries?
About French Poodles?
Replace it with "British Poodles" AKA "The Blair"
