I would heartily like to object. You drive on the wrong side of the road -- you started doing it, and have never learned the right way. You're stuck in the Middle Ages! We continentals just realized that the
right side of the road is the
right side. All Enlightment, baby. Even your wayward subjects, the Yanks, understood that.
Although they still have your crazy metric system. I mean, you weigh what? Five stones? Yeah man, I weigh twenty rocks, or fifteen hundred thirty-four pebbles. And you say you're how tall? Five feet two inches? What? Meters, man, meters!
METERS AND CENTIMETERS! Not every village its own metric system! Next thing, you'll have Chelsea supporters saying they ran six thousand seven hundred times the distance their keeper kicks a ball to get away from the riot police, and then Man United hooligans say they toppled a police van over weighing eleven thousand watches and then had to run a million large toes! Middle Ages, my friend, it's just plain painful to watch.
I think it was a case of French English mixed with dry French humor that caused this. Silly French... they really should learn some Wallonian humor, à la Goscinny et Uderzo
And really, get some help with your highway toilets. Professional help. For the love of God -- and for the love of me --
PLEASE! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!
As I say:
English for eloquence;
español por sensualidad;
français pour le romantique;
en Nederlands? Alleen om kennis te maken!
