Hey, that's funny you mention that. I am a american living in sweden. I work with a scott and an australian, (as well as a bunch of swedes and another american) anyway, I just had an "argument" with the scottish lady about what a rutabaga is and what a turnip is. It seems the brittish have no real sense about these things. {#No}

 

sounds like the beginning of a bad joke.

seriously, we americans have to inform the world.  poor things, none of them know anything.

no, don't "google" it, for that would be impossible since it is not a verb.  Look it up on google.

But if you don't have a garden, then squirrels that eat vegetables out of a garden are just kind of funny actually.  and maybe that is annoying, but the irony of "one person's pissed offeness is another person's chuckle" is worth a laugh at least.

Ok, great, are garden vegetables annoying, or just the lamo books about them, or the simple fact that crappy books like that seem to get air time on shows like good morning america or local morning tv nonsense.  

and if we are having a go, well, tv is just damn annoying since most of it assumes idiocy on the part of the viewer.   bah

"The Google" ohh nooooo , please please please don't refer to it as a proper noun. I think I would have take tranquilizers to calm my nerves from the discomfort.   The horror, the horror.{#Stop}

Well, damnit, they shouldn't. It's just wrong. It's like "ain't".   The one who decided to include as a verb it must be some sod that uses it as a verb all the time.   he probably "googled" the meaning of the word and found the def on wikipedia {#Bananajumprope}  What kind of source is that?
