  1. Well, obviously, I paraphrased. But that was the gist, was it not?
  2. Titouan Hervo's entry to Eurovision Junior! Congrats, dude!
  3. Here's my interpretation: I'm sure your admission that you just want a free holiday, is sure to convince him to spend thousands of dollars. Thereby giving you a FREE vacation.
  4. Just out of curiosity, does the zoo have a squirrel exhibit? I've seen stories on Reddit, posted by Americans who went on holiday to Germany, Australia, etc. The "exotic" animals at the zoo included North American squirrels and possums. Which makes sense, considering squirrels and possums ARE exotic to those locations. But it just sounds bizarre to me, since I tend to see those animals every day.
  5. Hey, Tea Bat.
  6. Hang in there, buddy.
  7. Sorry, guys! I was having some technical difficulties earlier, which now seems to have resolved itself.
  8. So we can say we had dessert for dinner?
  9. We had another Max request for dinner: French toast filled with strawberries and cream cheese.
  10. In the US, "Truck" may refer a 'pickup' truck, used by individuals to carry small loads of tools, equipment, or materials. But the equivalent to a lorry would be a "Semi truck", used for carrying large loads of cargo or shipments of goods. Semi trucks usually have just enough space for a driver and one or two passengers in the cabin. Long-haul semis often have space for a bed, a WC, and sometimes even a small kitchen. In the UK, I assume that lorries have the steering, brakes, and meters on the right-hand side of the cabin. Apart from that, I don't think they differ very greatly from US semi trucks.
  11. In the case of Drewth and Chili, the majority is never wrong.
  12. Here's an example of how Drew's logic works. Texas: "There's beans? That's not chili!" The Other 49 States: "No beans? That's not chili, that's dog food!" And yet, the overwhelming majority is, somehow, still 'wrong'.
  13. @Drew Espinosa Which type of snakes are the best at math? Adders.
  14. Hey, Boom Boom.
  15. Question: What did the horse say after it tripped? Answer: "Help! I've fallen and I can't giddyup!"
  16. Yep! I rarely "dine in" at McDonald's; I typically use the car lane. But, I remember the refills. The sheer volume of food sales offsets the cost of the drinks. Regards to commercial ads, it used to be illegal for lawyers to advertise their services on TV or billboards. Nowadays, every third advert starts with "If you or a loved one have suffered complications or death after using (product name here), you may be entitled to compensation!" 😂
  17. I remember seeing marmite on the shelves at the store. Though it was the International Foods aisle.
  18. I thought about that at first.
  19. Tartiflette!
  20. In the UK, whipped/clotted cream in an aerosol can is called 'Squirty Cream'.
  21. Biscuits and Gravy In the UK And in the US
  22. I don't use any recipes with the "cream of chemical X" soups, because bechamel/roux is a thing. Also, they just don't taste good, in my opinion.
  23. ....A little bit, yeah.
