Goddammit, Nick. Stop unintentionally making me feel bad with the way that you word certain things pertaining to relationships. Mostly because when it's unintentional, I can't call you out on something like this without making you feel bad.

Lol. When I first went we ordered burgers and chips in a restaurant and they gave us burgers and crisps.

As in a burger on a plate accompanied by potato chips (crisps) instead of fries.

I was all: 'Whut?'.

I'm pretty sure most of the American changes to the English language is just to piss off England. That's why we made the US standard measurements, anyway.

I always thought it was more like the US was trying to make itself stand out, but was actually making the rest of the world angry at it.

note how all the US units are 10% more than their UK versions. It was done after the American Revolution to screw over British traders.
