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