Hired to Work for DP

I'm still on vacation, typing on a french keyboard (Harder than it sounds)...

This is the first hit of net I've been able to get since last friday - I'm feeling the strain of being away from it...

 

When do you get back SE?

 

Erm.... Saturday (late) I think...

 

Odd. That didn't sound French at all...

 

Where I'm from we call them freedom keyboards. I love the "oh wee wee" key though. It's so fun.

 

For a twist on the 'hired by dp'..

If you were in Harry Potter, who would you be
Heres a few:
Lord Voldemort
Harry Potter
Fred Weasley
George Weasley
Ginny Weasley
Snape
Dumbledore

Feel free to disagree

 

My twin is Rob. Rob is my twin.

Well it could be worse.

 

OK, SEBasic, we need a picture of this keyboard and the wee-wee key. Is that when you have to go - kind of an away button???? LOL

 

Please don't tell me you also say "freedom kiss" ...cause that's just soooooooo unsexy.



[ps: Hodge, I REALLY hate the whole freedom/french thing. Can you please quit reminding me of it? Thanks hon.]

 

Yeah I think it is so asine. I just had to say it, because the people that do a freedom for french redirect are idiots.

 

Please tell me what you two are talking about. I feel so left out.

 

The US decided to rename french fries to freedom fries

(although fries were invented in belgium)

 

I didn't think there was much french in the french fry in the first place - I like the name freedom fries, but the rest of the names are just lame.

 

What! That´s just stupid. Anyway, they should be called chips. And they should be served in a newspaper drowning in vinegar and salt. Accompanied by tender white fish, deep fried in a crispy batter you´d ask for a Special Fish Supper. Then again in Scotland you could always go for the deep fried Mars Bar or a Sausage Curry.

What is it about this forum and food anyway. I am trying to lose weight, guys. STOP the foodie stuff. You are torturing me.

 

homeade fries fried in peanut oil are ok imo... i cant stand any fast food fries makes me want to puke

 

Let's just say that SOME people in the US decided that we shouldn't use the word French in anything because France was so bold as to disagree with Bush's push for the Iraq war (god forbid that anyone have an opinion which differs from his). So they started saying "Freedom Fries".

Yes...it's stupid, even more stupid that the US media made such a big deal over it.


*sigh*

PS: I have a secret love for Jack in the Box curly fries. Mmmmmmmmm

 

I like \/\/ but I dont want to get political

 

Well, I am agog. I have always wanted to be agog, but it never happened until now. You mean there was a big issue about what you call sliced, fried potatoes and what the hell is VV.

BlackPudding, stay out this thread man, or you will be TOAST. Erm.. that´s tanned bread.

* note, you can buy them on ebay according to adwords

 

So to rebuke France for not following the party line they changed the name of their CHIPS. Ooh boy. That must have stung.

Aaagh hahaha !
