Cheese or anything else a frenchie suggests is better 'murica. We're better because I say so.

 

Eeh, I found this video of you, Colonel.

Not a friend anymore, I take it?

Well his mum certainly isn't. She always took the micky outta my accent. It hurt.

I went to Paris in mid January and they still hadn't bothered to remove the giant Christmas tree from in front of Notre Dame. 

 

Is that the one that looks like a giant butt plug?

If I had to make an educated guess it might involve the recent cheese debate here... you know, Americans tend to feel very strongly about cheese. It is a big part of the inherent, ancestral American culture, including original pizza, meat loafs, and -- last but not least -- pasta noodles. Or cheese sticks. Try to cut camembert into cheese sticks, really, it's just preposterous.

 

Oh, I understand now, and deeply apologize, that shall never happen again.

She says, basking in camembert and comté and cancoillote and époisse and mont d'or and raclette and saint félicien and saint marcelin and...

 

I have a half-French friend too, one day his ma gave me a mushy snail goo thing to eat. Second worst day of my life after deep fried Mars Bar.

 

Next time, send them my way. I basically live for eating snails.

We've had my Chinese sister in law and Brazilian sister in law (and her family) taste it. They're all crazy about it now.

 

On my last day in France I went to a bakery and bought two baguettes to bring home. I ate a whole one on the way home. And half of another.

 

Perfectly normal. My mother used to buy one baguette more than what was usually needed, knowing it'd probably be crunched away by my brothers and me during the day. Baguettes really have a low lifespan in my household.

I never take Christmas decorations away before epiphany. It usually stays a week more after that because I'm just being plain lazy.

Let me be a happy slowpoke! I'll take it as an official Solas DLC announcement, but I still need to know moar.

late comments on stuff from earlier... *shrugs*

Aren't kilts as we know them an anacronistic 19th century invention???

Yup,  I think kilts were just big bits of material wrapped around and secured with a belt, not the pleated skirts of today.  I also heard from a historian that most tartans were just made up in the 19th century too, by a guy who put together a book...(I don't have any facts... sorry) but kilts are just nonsense really.  Everyone wears kilts at wedding here...and its kind of lame, Sharp suits ftw.

However, of allllll the nice tartans they could pick from, why the yellow??? was it so we could punish annoying companions? because that seems to be its main use.

 

Oh yeah not sexy anymore with his British accent said NO ONE EVER.

When I first started watching walking dead, I was like "wow that guy looks really like the english guy from "Teachers" and "This Life"  ...yeah, I'm stoopid.  I love his english accent, freaks me out a little with his american...I have this desire that he's going to break character and give a little bit of his cheeky geezer charm that he is so good at, but alas.   Hugh Laurie's the same, I just can't handle him not speaking posh english at all... and I don't like hospital dramas. (Hugh Laurie as the Prince Regent is probably my favorite comedy series character ever...)

So how much longer are we going to have to wait? stop teasing me Mike, its cruel!

Guys. I don't post in here very often (or at all for like the last 1500+ pages...go team!) but after five years of ranting incessantly about it's awesomeness I finally convinced my non-gamer friend to try Dragon Age... and she is obsessed, as I knew she would be.

 

I talked up the Solas romance a ton (I tried to give her a fair critique of each one but lets face it... I have a bias and it came through), she went for it, and she's just about to head into the Temple and is soooo excited to get another Solas scene. She's been super bummed there's so few. I'm feeling kind of (majorly) guilty about the inevitable heartbreak she's in for. 

[Kestrel]

Is that the one that looks like a giant butt plug?

 

Sadly not. It was a live tree. They also removed the giant blue rooster from Trafalgar Square in London. What is happening to this world. Solas would not approve.

[RogueBait]

Yes - I totally posted it on my tumblr, minus the admission that it was Solas-related. And ooh, thank you, let's see how these mugs turn out. Ceramic paint is remarkably hard to deal with (I find) - so they may not be worth charging money for. In fact I may actually be glad to foist them off on anyone who'd take them from me.

 

I've never tried to paint ceramics outside of class projects back in elementary school, though I should. I seem to remember the paint being kind of thin or something? Regardless of whatever you choose to do (sell, chuck out [actually don't do this, just give it to me ], or post pics of online), best of luck.

 

it's not far from people's speculation of him being a breakfast burrito.

 

Let's take a moment to objectively look at the facts, here.

 

- Breakfast burritos have a pale exterior (much like Solas)

- Breakfast burritos are tasty (much like Solas' sweet ass)

- Breakfast burritos are partially composed of eggs (much like Solas' skull)

- One could make out with a breakfast burrito (need I say more)

 

It's pretty conclusive.

 

I've been starring at this for surely 5 minutes now while Work It plays in the back. It fits so well, it's amazing. I'd never wondered what he might have been listening to, but just like that I learned it anyway.

But if that isn't Solas after humiliating everyone at Wicked Grace all night long, I don't know what.

 

Oh yeah, I totally planned that. *hair flip* I didn't, but I did just spend a good several minutes doing the same. It does work rather perfectly.

 

I would pay good money to see Solas humiliating everyone at Wicked Grace in a DLC--especially if it ended in him dancing like that. The thought is kind of making my palms itch.

Here's another one too:



Hellz yea

Nope, there is nothing after "You may be French". It stops right there before I bear arms.

 

Good thing you don't live North of the border....Everything. EVERYTHING has to have French on it.

It's okay. My friend laughed at me for days after I told her I romanced Solas. Days. Sometimes she still brings it up.

One of many reasons I clash with a Canadian friend of mine. Besides the Canadian part, lol.

Related, I felt so bad for Barney when he found out he was Canadian in how I Met your mother, LOL.

Hey it could be worse. It could be... Belgium, who has three official languages (Dutch, German, French), plus the English one almost official. So four languages. Now let's imagine how we'd deal with THAT.

Northern Ireland has 3 languages, Irish that no one speaks, Ulster-Scots which is an accent, and English. 

[NightSymphony]

My ex-boyfriend lives in Ottawa. I took a greyhound to visit him once, it stopped in Montreal. No one would speak English to me..no one!!  I couldn't read the signs, since EVERYTHING there is in French. So, I had to call my ex to come get me at 4 in the morning.  *sighs*  Montreal is a beautiful city, but the people there really suck!!

Sometimes I miss Ireland. The month I spend there felt like I belong (especially as being a somewhat redhead).

Though, I haven't been to Northern Ireland yet, so I'll come back for more, someday.

I know two Canadians on this board and I like them both. I can't understand all the hate. But it reminds me a lot of Michael Moore's Canadian Bacon... Which was awesome though... And they really were so annoying with all their politeness and that fake ignorance of why the US just had to start a war and.... damn ***** ****** ***** ****** Canadians **** those  ****** ********** and their **** ****** ************************!

Where was I.... oh, right, I know two Canadians here and I like them both. 

[NightSymphony]

Oh I love Canadians and Canada is a lovely place. I almost became a Canadian before that a-hole dumped me..anyway...I just had that bad experience in Montreal.

We have the Giants Causeway, which is about it really.

Just don't visit in July, lol.

Yup indeed - though at school we mainly learn / use three (French/Dutch as mothertongue, then we learn the other one, and of course English; German is not really officially taught sadly).

Why not? Either way, not sure I would, I like to travel in low seasons.

So many of my French-speaking Belgium friends complained about having to learn Dutch, so much, it often made me laugh. And it's fun to watch Belgium TV as well (but Swiss TV is no better in that regard, and equally as entertaining with their Italian/German/French thing going on!)
