So let me get this straight:
He has a front row seat to Mol and Erin (two relatively attractive women) fighting in their underwear, experiencing what was once only a fantasy, in the comfort of his own home, recliner in the best position, alcoholic beverage in hand, AND get's bragging rights?
"Nice."

You just said huzzah. You win.Elementary - Dear Watson said:
OT: Yea. This is awesome. I really wonder why Elliot isn't freaking out about his xbox though... those aren't the sturdiest at the best of times and Erin is fricken using it as her weapon of choice...
hang on...why are we calling cartoon characters hot? (not that we are wrong to) Have we all stared the dark abis of the Internet for to long?
Daystar... I know that if I am ever feeling glum or downtrodden, all I have to do is visit the escapist, find your latest post, quote it in some way, wait 5 minutes and I will have my very own witty response to cheer me up! The finest fellow of the highest order you are!Daystar Clarion said:
Strangely enough I type what comes into my head... it's exactly what I would say out loud in the situation too... pointing that out just made me realise that I use the word 'huzzah' rather a lot! Oh dear... No wonder my US counterparts at work are always chortling and writing down my phrases! c|:¬¦Sdragonswarrior said:

I suppose the worst thing about living away from home are the small things you miss, so thanks to the internet, I supply you with all the British charm you would otherwise be missing while out at the colonies.
That is true, sir! This desert is a lot more homely feeling when I can get a slice of home on here!!Daystar Clarion said:I'm glad I could cheer you up

Working with the US is still shocking me everyday!! Today I learned that they don't have the same words for courgette or aubergine... they have Zucchini and Eggplant, respectively! I had heard of their versions, but didn't realise that they are just different words for the same thing...
Also don't get me started on grilling/BBQing! I mentioned grilling bread to make cheese on toast (with worcestershire sauce, naturally) and just got horrified looks... when I asked what was wrong, they said: 'why would you put bread on the BBQ!?' -- We were not amused...
For some reason, that guy looks a hell of a lot like Sluggo.TheNaut131 said:So let me get this straight:

The quicker we get out there and sort stuff out, the better.Elementary - Dear Watson said:That is true, sir! This desert is a lot more homely feeling when I can get a slice of home on here!!Daystar Clarion said:I'm glad I could cheer you up

This nonsense has gone on for far too long
'Why would you put bread on the BBQ?'
Pfft, savages.

Not only that I have been force fed an ungentlemanly ammount of bacon flavoured products... seriously, if it not an actual peice of bacon, it should not taste anything of the sort...
(Unless it's Walkers Smokey Bacon of course!)
Or Frazzles, bloody hell they're delicious.Elementary - Dear Watson said:Hear hear...!Daystar Clarion said:The quicker we get out there and short stuff out, the better.

I honestly don't think I could live in America for an extended period of time.
That's not me knocking the country, I'd gladly go there on holiday, but I'd miss home too much if I had to stay for months on end.
I'd agree with you there. Even though I am not there now, where I am is very influenced by them, and all facilities are provided by them...Daystar Clarion said:
It's just little things you miss... like the fact you can get salad dressings (all different flavours), ranch sauce and marinara sauce up the yin-yang, but they do not have malt vinager anywhere... at... all!
And fries will never be as good as chips! Seriously!I return in 2 weeks though, back to normality!
I will definately go to the chippy on the way home... Battered cod and chips, expertly consumed with the small wooden fork of wonder!Anyway mate, I am off now! On a short shift today! I am off to meet with an attractive young girl from Hawaii who hangs around with me solely because she likes my accent...! Such is life...

What are you guys doing to Barbeque over there? I get grilled cheese, sure, and I'm not opposed to a toasted bun for burgers, sandwiches, or even a decent pulled pork, but why are you messing with the perfect order of the multitude of juices from grilled meats infusing the metal racks, forever compounding a greater flavor in the next piece?Daystar Clarion said:The quicker we get out there and sort stuff out, the better.

The point you have outstandingly missed is that we do not call a Barbeque a grill!BehattedWanderer said:
To us the grill is the other setting in an oven... the one where you leave the door open, and the bar at the top glows... that's what we make cheese on toast in...
That one...!

That's one advantage about being British.
Foreign ladies, especially Americans, love the accent. Well, if it's a proper accent, so you're fresh out of luck if you're from Liverpool
Well when we have a barbecue, it's less steak and ribs, and more sausages, burgers and chicken legs.BehattedWanderer said:
Fucking cheese on fucking toast with fucking Worchestershire fucking sauce.
But that's cooked under a grill, not on a barbecue.
