Why don't you call crisps crisps?

Because you wacky Brits call fried potatoes "chips". And Americans invented the potato chip, but you can't very well call it what we named it because you erroneously call fried potatoes "chips".

No possible retort for my irrefutable logic. Got it.

^Hey bud, don't take it so personally. You are just a vapid fvck who isn't worth reading.
Imagine you wrote a book and nobody bought it, think of it like that

And then there's the aluminum vs. aluminium discussion.
hood vs. bonnet
trunk vs. boot
truck vs. lorry
elevator vs. lift
girl vs. bird
bathroom vs. loo
dude vs. bloke
tired vs. knackered
Apparently, stupid people
don't know
they're stupid.

I wouldn’t say girl is the true equivalent of bird. Girl is the literal description.
Chick vs bird
Dude vs mate
Hot vs fit

Not to mention biscuits….

Phaenon — 6 years ago(June 23, 2019 09:18 AM)

Yeah, you're damn right Loki! They have gravy with their biscuits??!
What in the world wide web kinda thing is that to do with biscuits?!

Gravy ruins the taste of a freshly baked Hobnob.

Phaenon — 6 years ago(June 23, 2019 09:24 AM)

I'm just thinking about how pink wafers and brown gravy don't even suit each other aesthetically.
Sage though, that might work with a biscuit

It's only 10.24 am and I doubt I'll read anything funnier today!

Then there's the whole fag vs fag thing

Phaenon — 6 years ago(June 23, 2019 10:46 AM)

I'm quite happy to let there be some difference Dazed, but crisps and crisps and chips are chips!

So if you go to the chippy what do you get?
And do you have to shout at the frying guy if you want a large cod?

[fgadmin]

Phaenon — 6 years ago(June 23, 2019 10:56 AM)

Nah, my chippie is decent
I mix it up, but I rarely go these days; sausage supper, ashet pie, saveloy, black pudding, haggis, king rib, deep fried pizza with curry sauce and the haddock, cod, plaice and pollock of the day.
Sometimes just a roll and fritter (With curry sauce) but I think it's been nearly a year since my last chippie. No idea why.
What about you?
