London Bridge is Down?

[dunfree]

you realize the fit'ba is different and Chicken Tikka Masala surpassed fish & chips as the most popular takaway in the old country

chicken tikka is British. And the problem for fish & chips is the cod have been wiped out

[PNWbrit]

I always preferred haddock.

best "Indian" food I have ever had is in Manchester

Aint colonization grand

and I dont know what they were pulling out of the ocean and frying in Ullapool, but that was a proper fish dinner

they do it pretty good in Boston too ( where I had it yesterday watching footie)

best meal I had in england was EI, my fatehr used to make jokes about the food in britain, I have a hardtime believing a brit invented Tikka Masala altho they did used to own india, at one point Britain was in control of 1/4 of the world's pop

[SumJongGuy]

This one's good..

[Boosh]

Well fine, but whatever you do with it, don't go imposing your puritanical New England morals on the place.

since the Vermont Republic originally seceded from Quebec and ruled themselves before being admitted into the US I feel it's only right for VT to lay claim to QC.

As for the location of Upstate NY, I think we're getting close but still have some work to do on that front

I find it pretty remarkable that QE2 ruled for 70 years; 1/4 of the time that the US has been in existence

Best I ever had was in Corfu, on the recommendation of a 300 lb guy from Manchester.
Guess they know their Vindaaloo in Manchester.

do you count immigrants from the subcontinent living in England as British?

[warthog]

For one, the entire North Coast of Ohio is still contested between Michigan and Upstates New York.

Do they fight over who has to take Erie?

well would they technically be " British Subjects " I duno but 1/4 of the world would have been under British rule at one point

consider you and i speak English ? or would you say you speak American ? the tentacles of the british empire reached far and wide for hundreds of years

but as for food how much " British food " have you eaten ? my father would have been talking about the tendancy for the average Brit to boil/ fry the fuck out of everything

[BmillsSkier]

Not since they put the Chick Fil A in off I-80.

It totally redeemed the sliver of PA.

How about a tasty spotted dick?
Or a glutinous and translucent suet pudding, like the venerable Boiled Baby?
Is souse named souse because it's French? Or because some Englishman successfully churched it up? ??

[XXX-er]

Yeah I gravitate to the cooking on Mom's side of the family

post 1949, no, they wouldn’t be subjects unless they were immigrants or citizens

if you think steamed puddings are weird, uh, guess you’ve never looked much into actual cooking? North Americanized cooking usually makes some changes.

also wrt to the uk ww2 & postwar rationing decimated a lot of traditional producers & goods like cheese

[Timberridge]

Sounds like something Chainsaw Willie used to offer to the ladies.

What’s your point? Of course I know football is soccer and I like fish and chips not chicken tikka masala. Are you just gratuitously padding your post count?

[SumJongGuy]

I'm having fish and chips tonight. It won't be wrapped in newspaper though...

Wore a The Who concert T today. Almost went Sex Pistols but had a 1 to 1 with my manager and he wouldn't get Sex Pistols reference..

[PNWbrit]

Is this a contest?

[liv2ski]

Hey Chuck. Time to return the family's ill gotten gains you pack of cunts.

I’m sure Charlie won’t fuck this up like bailing on Hong Kong.

Because its history involves a great deal of fighting between men, the Koh-i-Noor acquired a reputation within the British royal family for bringing bad luck to any man who wears it. Since arriving in the UK, it has only been worn by female members of the family.^[12]
