High road? Nah, I took the gutter. Always suitable over the price of gas!

Thanks for the tip. Now for the TMI. I actually have tried them. But that was way back in my younger days. I probably bought the cherry version.

Irish Folk/punk band is the best way I can think of them. My baby brother turned me on to them. I love em I listen to them everyday while out on the road.

"seven-piece Irish American celtic punk band" is how wikipedia describes them. And yes, on full volume in your pickup, I could see where that would be good driving music. Except it might just increase the potential for getting speeding tickets......

New fast food - edible underwear in a pastie shell.

The thread was heading that way so I decided to intercept it at the pass and take it down a notch.

Thank you. I like this thread better now. It was bordering on the boring.

Wow, these little culture "mismatches" can be so funny. Had no idea that pastie meant something else in the states (i.e. knickers!) You can buy cheese & onlion / steak / cornish pasties on any high street in the UK, so it's good I know that the US might use the term differently before my next trip to the states! Not a good idea to walk into a US bakery and ask for pasties then?


Another interesting one is pants - we use that word for knickers/boxer shorts. I think the US uses it for trousers. It always makes me laugh when in US shows someone mentions pants, to me it sounds like they are discussing their underwear.


Another one (I think) is fanny. Doesn't that mean a person's bottom in US? In the UK it usually refers to, er, female genitalia and young kids might receive a slap round the head for using that word!

Yeah Boxer shorts are under wear here. I get a kick out of the differences in slang words. I used to date a brit and it just cracked me up.

I like the difference in the meaning of the phrase "knocked up". In England it means using a door striker and the in the US it means that a woman is with child.

"shagging" has always cracked me up-in the States is a baseball term-it means players are chasing down the balls hit into the outfield during batting practice. In GB it is something entirely different. Great story that may or may not be true: Several years ago a British journalist was highly confused and offended when, in looking for a specific player for an interviw, was told he was "shagging in the outfield".

He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp, or to have his eyes gouged out, and his elbows broken. To have his kneecaps split, and his body burned away, and his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin. His head smashed in and heart cut out, and his liver removed, and his bowels unplugged, and his nostrils raped and his bottom burned off and his penis...

Sir Robin: That's, uh, that's enough music for now, lads... looks like there's dirty work afoot.
