Writer's Block: Cheating with a side of bacon

[Error: unknown template qotd]
I tried going vegetarian for a while after I met my boyfriend. I suppose I did it because I didn't want him to think I was unhealthy. I think I also did it to try and make myself like veggies. I only stuck with it around him mostly. I'd say the relationship lasted a lot longer than the vegetarianism did seeing as I'm now married to the man in question, lol.

In England, they're chips.

I was messing around on Not Always Right (again) and came across this entry:

(I work at a fish and chips booth at a 19th-century London convention.)

Customer: “Hi, I want some chips.”

Me: “Sure, that’ll be ***. Here are your chips.”

Customer: “No, I want chips.”

Me: “These are chips.”

Customer: “No, they’re french fries.”

Me: “In England, they’re called chips.”

Customer: “So? We’re in America.”

Me: “You’re at a convention set in London.”

Customer: “So?”

Me: “So, they’re called chips in an attempt to be authentic.”

Customer: “The f***? I’m an American and in America they’re called french fries!”

Me: “So why aren’t they called American fries?”

Customer: *stares blankly*

Kinda reminds me of that attempt to rename them Freedom Fries when the US got made at the French, lol. I just thought I'd write this one down since it's extra funny, particularly to me. *grin*
