I happened to try a Double Down for lunch today - it was okay. I couldn't actually finish it, but it was pretty tasty, if very greasy. Made the french fries seem much more wholesome. I doubt I'll get it again - the cheese kind of interferes with the crispiness of the chicken, which is my favorite part of fried chicken.
IHOP in general is not appealing to me. I don't even put syrup on my pancakes, so all that other stuff just seems like way too much.
Mustache. Moustache. Mustachios. Spellcheck is not flagging any of those spellings. Huh.
I wish I could be Vortex. Instead, I say please.
Okay, I love you just the way you are. But, to avoid these sorts of people, you must learn bitchface. They will not approach you. The downside of bitchface is that sometimes smarmy assholes will say "smile!"
I had a pretty serious bitchface on. Apparently when you are an idiotic protester, you have no idea of how to behave like a normal human being.
HOW DID I NOT NOTICE YOU GUYS WRITE IT MUSTACHE?
Huh. I never noticed that either. I definitely put the O in.
In jr. high one of my teachers asked if I read a lot of British writers (yes) based on my spelling. I wasn't aware of it until she pointed it out. I think "traveller" was one of the clues.
I've always spelled judgement as judgement, so I assume I learned that spelling in grade school. That would have been back in the '60s, in rural Pennsylvania, but I can't imagine that would have an affect on standard American spelling.
When I moved to England they thought I was horridly American, but that was vocab. Gas, sidewalk, and my Spanish made them laugh. No wonder I'm fucked.
You know I love Lee Child, but somehow there's always on British-ism in all of his books. The last one I read had Reacher driving in the "overtaking" lane. O RLY?
Jesse, you can always ask. If necessary, negotiate an unpaid leave of absence?
I say "lift" and "queue" regularly (for elevator and line), and that comes from London schooling. Plus, I like the way they sound.
If necessary, negotiate an unpaid leave of absence?
Yeah, I figure that's the worst-case scenario.
