Yay! I love ita!

Well, ita, it's a given that you're lovable. You may have strange, programmer-like ideas about the correct algorithm for determining accurate Buffy quotes, but you're still lovable.
How lovely to be drunk and to be able to simply declare things without fear of being misunderstood!

I feel sure that should be codeable. My ignorance wants to use BASIC:
LET 'loveable' = 'ita' IF 'ita' LOVES 'wombles' THEN 'ita' = 'very loveable'

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
I'm so glad that this goolie/goolies thing has been mentioned, because every time a girl Buffista refers to her 'goolie' I ask myself if this is special Buffista slang, or if it's a US thing. 'Cause it means 'bollock' in English, ie 'ball', ie 'testicle', and is thus generally just referred to in the plural.
And yes, in English English, 'fanny' = 'pussy', only not such a crass term.
Yay! Go Team Wombles!

I don't know the tune for that and I'm listening to a...I'm not sure exactly how to describe it, but there's a song with a mariachi band in it...but I can make the lyrics fit so it's interesting.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Entirely random question: On that Aussie in America site, there are several mentions of pizza with egg. What sort of egg is this? The two possibilities I've come up with are fried or a sliced hard boiled egg, but I could be completely off base.

Hil, I don't think I've ever had pizza with egg in my life, but my guess would be they're trying to replicate the traditional Australian hamburger, in which case it would be a fried egg.

Interesting Angus. The traditional Australian hamburger is also a traditional Oregonian hamburger. One local chain pub refers to it as the "Wilbur".
