For the people in Great Britian, is fish and chips claimed as a FOOD GROUP because its so popular? Does it ever get really hot and do u go swimming? IDK why, but when i thinnk of britian, i think chilly. Are there beaches?

In Wisconsin, we call water fountains a bubbler. (eg: where is the bubbler?) Everyone laughs at us, but it is a bubbler damnit! :x :cry:

You're still under the delusion that the written form of an English word has to have any correspondence to the pronunciation of said word? Silly person! :razz:

*ahem* Sorry, but this gets a little annoying that Missouri is thought of as a state with a bunch of hicks, which I don't believe I or anyone else I've ever talked to is. I know no one who says "warsh". The only Missourians who say "warsh" or "farty four" live on the border with Arkansas... hm, I wonder where they get it...? :?

Shark fin soup? What!? Never even heard of it. About "G'day mate", I say "G'day", but some people think it's weird (even though we're in AUSTRALIA!). It's mostly middle-aged men who say "G'day mate" as a greeting, in my experience! And as for "The Accent", sorry to disappoint you, but no-one I have ever met has the stereotypical accent fake Aussies have in movies/TV etc. "The Accent" is horrible, and is embarrassing for me to hear. It's horrendous and just....ew. Sounds so... bogan-ish.

Fish and Chips are very popular in Australia, but they are not recognized by nutitionists as a food group, lol. I don't think it gets really hot in the UK. I was born in Australia and have never ventured from this land as yet, but my dad is British. It does get hot here. Here in SA, you can expect it to get to at least 40 degrees C... which is somewhere over 100 degrees F... Right now, it is winter and to me, it's FREEZING, but seeing it doesn't snow where I live, I guess to anyone else it's not really that cold at all. And I can answer your question about beaches. Yes, there are beaches in the UK. They tend to be rocky. I live right near the beach here, and it's very nice and sandy.
.... and in Northern California, we say hella. A lot.
That's funny, because when No Doubt had that song "Hella Good", I thought it was something Gwen Stefani must have made up, because I had never heard it before. :razz: [/b]

Ah, here in Holland we ALL wear wooden shoes, worship windmills, and there are tulips everywhere
Oh, and we say "Eye luf Nessa"

shark fin soup? erm no. and we don't really say "gday"...thats just aussie slang that nobody uses. other examples include "fair dinkum" and some other crap that i dont know what the heck it means.

it doesn't even bubble..
i don't get it.
I went and looked it up:
"The Bubbler was developed in 1888 by the then-small Kohler Water Works (now Kohler Company) in Kohler, Wisconsin. While Harlan Huckleby is credited with the actual design, it was Kohler that patented it and trademarked the name. The original Bubbler shot water straight into the air, creating a bubbling texture as the water cascaded back into the original stream."
Many people also call ATM's "Tyme machines" because Tyme was the former name of the dominant debit card/ATM network in Wisconsin.
We're weird :lol:.
-
"Bubbler" refers to a certain piece of drug paraphernalia in these parts.
-
In New Jersey or southern Jersey, we say water as wooder...

Most of them used to be called "Annies" around here, because Union Planters Bank got a jump on most of the other banks in putting up ATMs everywhere. I don't know if they're even still called that, especially since UP just merged with Regions a few months ago.

When people say stupid shit like "is fish and chips claimed as a FOOD GROUP because its so popular? Does it ever get really hot and do u go swimming? IDK why, but when i thinnk of britian, i think chilly. Are there beaches?" they need to know I am going to tell them they are fucking stupid.
When someone asks "like for the people who live in Austrailia, do you have the accent? G'DAY MATES? Did you ever eat shark fin soup?" I am going to tell them to GTFO.
It's simple cause and effect. Someone does something unforgivably stupid, I tell them they are stupid.
if you don't want to be made fun of, don't do stupid shit. It's a very simple system.

Ignore the little boy? *cough* One should ignore you for not knowing that England and Scotland are two different countries but futhermore it is not called a Scottish Egg, but a Scotch Egg. A Scottish egg would be an egg of Scottish origin.
"A Scotch egg is a snack food of Scottish origin consisting of a cold, hard-boiled egg removed from its shell, wrapped in a sausage meat mixture, coated in breadcrumbs, and deep-fried. It is eaten cold, typically with salad and pickles."
Also don't get me started on the whole Believe Mars Bar thing....Believe Maarse.

rofl, thanks scott. for making me imagine an egg with a pair of bagpipes and ginger hair.
But yes, Scotch eggs are tastey.

Isn't there such thing as Newcastle Brown Ale? I sure hope so, because it feels like I'm drinking it. :D

"Like, OMFG, I hear that in other countries, they speak languages OTHER than English! Is this true?!? Do some of you speak by making clicking sounds?!? OMFG! TELL ME ABOUT IT LOLZ!"

Honestly.... no. :roll: It actually makes me feel bad that people feel it is okay to post things that are deliberately insulting to other members of this board. And despite your attempt to make me feel bad for sticking up for someone, I don't. If you don't like the topic, then there's no need to post for the purpose of insulting people. However, if I am wrong, and the purpose of the Nessaholics forums is to bitch, instead of being a community of Vanessa Carlton fans, then perhaps that should have been specified clearly to me when I joined. So why didn't you make it clear that this is a board for Vanessa Carlton fans to bitch at each other? Then there would have been no confusion, and I would not have wasted my time.

You're not gonna make it very far in this world if you can't deal with the reality of human behavior. You're not gonna have mom and dad around to protect you from the big bad world forever.
When you get a job, if you fuck up, your boss is gonna yell at you. When you're in college, if you leave dishes in the sink, your roomate is gonna yell at you.
When you're on the internet, and you say something stupid, people are going to make sure you know it was stupid.
Don't jump in front of the train and then be shocked when it rolls over you.

In San Francisco, alot of people who are not gay have an accent that sounds like it. At first you wonder wtf is going on. Then you become used to it and just hope you don't pick up the accent. At last you go to enough local events where people wear all kinds of crazy stuff(or not) and realize people are so liberal, relaxed socially, and casual here the accent is not because of being gay but because people are gay(happy,) here.

Actually, my parents have not protected me for a long time. I have also been working for years. You know absolutely nothing of my life experiences, and the fact that you have a formed opinion of me, despite knowing very little about me, does nothing to prove your maturity. I know it is a BIG BAD WORLD. I live in it. I just expected better from this site. I acknowledge that I was mistaken. The reality of human behavior is that some people do not consider the feelings of others, and/or deliberately set out to hurt others. I know this well. However, just because I know this is the reality, does not mean I have to behave in the same way. I make my own decisions.
So I now know that this is not worth discussing any further, and I hope that you will say no more on the matter, and nor shall I.
It's not worth saying any more about. I hope you will agree on that point if nothing else.

Apparently that holds true for both a Scottish and Scotch egg, eh?
Sorry...it made me laugh. Although an egg with bagpipes makes me laugh as well.

Yeah I thought when she said that I was probably in trouble. It doesn't matter though because it's freakin true. And when I say trouble I mean someone getting defensive about where they're from. There are very few people who were actaully born and raised in the actaul city.
For instance, I was born in stockton, ca and even though I didn't grow up in lodi in any stretch of the imagination that is good enough for the kind of people who bug you about being from here, but just barely. And then I tell them I graduated from high school in Sacramento., which seems to be enough. It's like the 'grapes of wrath' all over again.
If that was a bit off topic, not really nessasary, and drawn out, at least it included some interesting information and literary references.

I have a buddy who lives in SF who bought a condo (no idea what you would call the area he lived in... it's within walking distance of downtown... I guess it's west) about 4 years ago on like a 5/20 ARM. He got married this year, flipped the condo, and made a small fortune.

This has gotta be the best PM I have ever recieved in my entire life. It's so awesome, I have to post it here for everyone to read. I mean, really... this is a work of brilliance. The PM speaks for itself.
Alright Andy, can I call you Andy, I think I can.
So you have just realized that I am 16 even though it has been next to my username for about 8 months, i hope you are not in law
enforcement, but then again if you are in your mid20s and still on Nessaholics I just hope you're employed. I may be young, but I am not ignorant, I read the New York Times every Sunday, maybe you should pick up a periodical other than Star Magazine, and yes little Shiloh is doing well, but you already knew that didn't you. So it has been some time Andy my boy that we have been fighting, you an obviously lonely "man"-type thing with a scary amount of downtime, and me a 16 year old girl who has straight A's and argues with you to avoid doing more calculus homework. Seriously, have you ever crawled out of your hovel to call me ignorant? When you are the twenty something who spends his time fighting with "little girls"? And you said that Nessa was in her twenties but i would put money on the fact that she is not on a fansite agruing with teenagers, it's just a hunch. I've travelled and I have dreams of exploring throughout my life and I hope for two things, one to never encouter a creature like you in my life (A short ex-Dungeons and Dragons master with taped glasses on your pimpley little face) and to have something better to do with my time when I am your age, thank you for giving me a glimpse of the future I NEVER WANT TO HAVE, sincerely I thank you.
XOXO OMFG

Stop? How can I possibly top that? Can it get better? I mean, I've already got you so angry that you wrote 4 CONSECUTIVE run-on sentences!
I think my personal best is 2! You doubled it in one angry rant!
I mean, this "sentence" alone is a trophy anyone would be proud of: "I've travelled and I have dreams of exploring throughout my life and I hope for two things, one to never encouter a creature like you in my life (A short ex-Dungeons and Dragons master with taped glasses on your pimpley little face) and to have something better to do with my time when I am your age, thank you for giving me a glimpse of the future I NEVER WANT TO HAVE, sincerely I thank you"

Oh! We're having a battle of "the least bit"? Well, it seems only logical that I would lose such a battle. Though, I can't say I knew the word was designed to be used that way.

the regents were a JOKE! (at least the ones I took) Math and science are the two subjects I usually fail, so those regents I had difficulty with. But I literally laughed all the way through my USHAG and English regents....one of the questions for the English regents was, after being given a table of facts on a hurricane, to explain why it was a disaster. I was all: 8O . way too easy.

Math B is different
global was sooo scary easy

Yes, but you're a freak of nature, and the rest of us have dealt with that.
It was easier than the equivalent standardized test I took in California.
Standardized testing is a joke. Teachers end up teaching the tests instead of the material.
We are becoming like the europeans :cry:
I hope our economy doesn't fall apart like theirs has :twisted:

well, I don't know enough about the last two statements to comment about them, but I wholeheartedly agree with the first one. But I won't get started on why our education system needs some serious revision.

I haven't seen that in all of my schooling. The closest thing I've seen to teaching the test was when my 6th grade teacher passed out a handout on test-taking strategies a week before STAR tests. Other than that, my teachers have largely just followed the California State Content standards, where they exist.
