US vs. UK English
 

I've spent the past, like, two hours on the wikipedia page(s) for "List of words having different meanings in British and American English". It's damn comprehensive and damn interesting!

hm

no ass in the UK?

I think some here would differ.

Jolly good, now let's have some spotted dick and a pint of Bitter, and discuss whether the next round of Doctor Who episodes should be called series 7, or season 33.

This post is full of win.

I had a British computer science professor who used a US-UK dictionary as an example program. His example sentence was:

Thanks. My mom visited your lands recently.

The couple I checked seemed good, they did biscuit/cookie quite well, a biscuit and are cookie are different things, not different names for the same thing.

Interestingly they didn't have beer, the drink commonly decribed as beer in the US is called lager in the UK. Common beer in the UK is bitter.

or we can pretend we had our own time machine and and gone back and prevented the current abominations and the Doctor faded out with Sylvester McCoy.

Sorry, I need to have this translated. Beest has obviously been abroad too long and is spouting complete nonsense :sniff:

Don't like the new Who, huh? Ok. Cool. But I do, so...whutever n stuff.

I loved old Who. I still do. I love all of them, and listen to the audio plays too.

But I also love nu-Who. Tennant was a brilliant Doctor. Didn't always agree with the direction RTD took the stories, but Tennant's portrayal of the Doctor was excellent. And the current run with Matt Smith has been awesome. Excellent storytelling from Moffatt and a Doctor who sits very comfortably in my mind alongside the best of the Classic series.

Bloody hell, fuck a duck, the cat's cactus.

Speaking of classic Who...

Always through Romana I was a bit of a pratt. Liked Romana II, though.

I think you missed the point of the video. I assume you watched the whole thing.
