mob 0 Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 A quarter to a third of Americans are significantly overweight, and Congress thought the most dangerous thing about fries was their Frenchness. Priorities, people, priorities.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RooK 0 Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 I don't care what prefix you put on them, I'll still call them fries. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Syncopator 0 Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 Jeez. Really makes you wonder why we bothered to try and evolve any further than bacteria level...if this is where we end up 8 million years on... arguing about fries and how french they are, indeed. Humour is a great virtue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Major Maximum 0 Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 (edited) christ, who gives a crap what they're called....If we need to change a food's name to impress the french, I don't think they deserve to help. they aren't even a french food. And Sync, what you talkin 'boot? Just cause there are culinary disputes means we're better off as single-celled organisms? Jeez people...

Specter 0 Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 Well, this intelligent thread is certainly taking us to a higher plane. Sigh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Syncopator 0 Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 hehe. aye Major. If we need to change a food's name to impress the french, I don't think they deserve to help The point is they were called french fries...until some idiot decided that since you guys 'fell out' with the Frenchies (since they werent up for any Arab bashing at the time - obviously busy making fries ) that they would be renamed 'freedom fries'. Now of course...the same plonker (or another) has decided it might be good to change the name back...so that they can al be bestest buddies again. That's the jist of the story mate. And that should explain why I find it hilarious that we even bothered to evolve... As Phantm says: intelligent thread *cough* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zantar45 0 Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 As long as there is no Holy War with Hell and they change Devils food to sinners cake, I'm fine with it all.Especially the Devild ham and Deviled eggs. If so, it means war. Question, Is it natural to have fluid dripping out your ears after reading this thread? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Syncopator 0 Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 Is it natural to have fluid dripping out your ears after reading this thread? Or out of the sides of one's mouth...known in the scientific community as nonsensicalus dribbilus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
