Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Wow, that's practically a French Fry Poboy.
Uhhhng.
See, I just can't put potato in a sandwich. I think I have very firm ideas about where potatos should go. They should not appear suddenly in spaghetti sauce, macaroni and cheese, on pizzas or stirfry (all of which manifested in the form of french fries. The czechs apparently like using it as filler.)
Happy Birthday, Abby!
I always check World Market for foreign chocolates and other goodies. I don't know what comes from where, but I know what I like, and I like Areos.
I also buy the canned raviolis from England whenever I find them, but that's probably peculiar to me.
I now want fish & chips and I blame TOM SCOLA.

I remember a girl in high school who used to dip her fries in mayo. That still perplexes me. Does anyone here do that?
DH likes mayo with his fries. In fact, when we had our cheeseburgers on Friday we both had a ketchup-mayo mixture for our fries. Yummy and decadent.
Someone told me in high school that that was a Belgian thing.

It's the norm in Europe (or at least in France and Belguim), and I still don't understand why it's never caught on here, given the extreme nastiness of ketchup and the utter perfection of the fry/mayo combination.
Does anyone here do that?
My roomate in Prague introduced me to the concept of mixing ketchup and mayo for fries. So if it is available, that's what I do.
I do, occasionally. More often mustard. I picked up the mayo habit from my DH, who picked in up from when he lived in Europe as a kid.
I could also rave all day about treats (soft drinks, candies, cookies, desserts)
Yes to this. My word.
See, that stuff about making GTA:San Andreas an adults-only game is just weird to me. Why is showing sex so much worse than showing murder? The M rating was just fine for GTA:Vice City, where as Jars mentioned you can hire, use, and then kill prostitutes...but since they only show the car rocking, it's okay.
I mean, I'm not planning on letting Mal play games like that until he's about 17, but that's their current rating, so I'm cool with it.
Thanks to this conversation, I think I'm now going to have to have F&B for lunch (even if they have changed their once-exciting hot dog menu into a far more mundane one, they're still the only place in walking distance where I can get frites with garlic aioli).
