Davo 1 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Speaking of daft-I've had people complain to me about the size of meals they receive in restaurants overseas. Apparently they're too big which I suppose is understandable when you're only used to getting 3 chips, but I don't rate it as something to whine about. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Oh I dunno about that. Some of the great mounds of food I've had in the States look pretty revolting, especially when the sauce coagulates before you can scarf it all down (not that I would want to try.) I'm quite a big eater, but the portions of pasta or icecream that come border on the obscene. I hate to see all the waste that's involved. The three chips are because you get that nasty looking china plate of rice ain't it? I say light on the rice, heavy on the chips, but that sort of flexibility isn't built into chain restaurants. (I remember the applause from the kitchen - led by me probably - when our manager at Pizza Hut told some yuppy lady to f@ck off when she insisted on having corn on her pizza. Odd when you think of it. I mean, throwing some corn on a pizza isn't really a hard thing to do.) Link to post Share on other sites
HoTRoD 2 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Yes, but that wasn't in the rule book was it. Corn not included means corn not included. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Right HoTRoD, that was it! (but I think it's probably called a 'manual'..."Cecilia, your lobster thermidor is really sublime. Do tell me the manual.") Link to post Share on other sites

rajeem 0 Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 The way lyrics to all songs are written at the bottom of the screen on all the music programs. That's funny. Link to post Share on other sites
fukdane 2 Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Yeah, I've alway wondered why they do that? Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Never heard of karaoke? Link to post Share on other sites
fukdane 2 Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Gee, what's karaoke then? Of course I've heard of karaoke, but does that explain why we need lyrics at the bottom of the screen for every song on every music program. I suppose the answer is yes. Link to post Share on other sites

guzzlers-baps 0 Posted August 1, 2003 Author Share Posted August 1, 2003 Funny that, cracks me up. People being super-polite all the time when they don't really want to be cracks me up too. Kinda into overdrive. There must be so much frikkin pressure and stress built up in J society. Link to post Share on other sites
TheOrange 0 Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 What cracks me up is some people here telling me I should eat more (coz I've lost weight since last year). They seem to forget I was a bit overweight last year! Link to post Share on other sites
