IHOP actually had one of the "saner" portions we have experienced. Our hotel restaurant portions are grotesque, a starter could feed my entire family comfortably.
Well when you dont consume 2,000 calories per day in beer you can eat more food.
Murica!
I have to consume extra here to make up for the ubiquitous weak beer that in my country would be considered as Shandy.

Since English food is inedible, and in small portions, the beer naturally needs to be more substantial. Otherwise you lot would be paler and more sickly looking than you are currently.

Boom^^^. Score one for team Murica!

Yes, your advances in grilled cheese and ground, processed meat products are the envy of the world ::)

You should be proud.

Technically, our grilled meat and processed cheese products are the envy of the world… -
We had one of those yesterday. Every time I hear an American make a disparaging comment about an English fried breakfast I am now going to laugh in their face

I told you back in December that I thought the "Full English" breakfast was magnificent.
(Not as magnificent as a good cheesesteak, though…)

ISFS.

Coming from a country that labels 5% beer as "strong ale" - piss off will ya!..

Bought a new dresser the other day, the store delivered it same day. Opened it up only to find out that it had a big ding in the top of it. It's pretty big, weighs about 175-200 pounds. I paid for two moving guys because there was more furniture we bought as well, but two delivery guys made it look easy.
Called the store, they said they would come replace it yesterday evening and cover delivery. Well now that it's on their dime they thought one guy was enough, because it was cheaper that way. So I ended up helping the poor guy move the damaged one down 3 flights of stairs and the new one back up the stairs. Moving heavy furniture wasn't something I planned on doing after all day at work, but I wasn't about to let the guy try to do it himself. This guy was also like twice my age (but he knew what he was doing). If it had just been my girlfriend here she couldn't have helped him and the guy would've been completely screwed and probably would've damaged the furniture even more.
Going to call the store today and give them a piece of my mind because that's just wrong. -
had a whinge at work to a colleague from the uk and i'll have a whinge here as well.
london's congestion charge system is a joke. you have to go online or call up to pay for the charge in advance or on the day itself. what if you, by some unforeseen reason, wouldn't know if you were going to get into the area, or turn down a wrong one way road with no chances of going back? why isn't there a much simpler electronic system that just deducts the money from your account or by some means of a stored credit from the vehicle, be it personal or business account?
having had a hire car in melbourne and sydney spanning 2 different state with 2 seperate state made traffic regulations with toll, the e-tag system is so much easier to use. (even though i hate paying tolls) as a hire car, the amount gets charge to the respective business account, and it then gets forwarded to the customer depending on how much toll road he uses.

@Broark - yeah that's a dick move on their behalf… When they delivered my first fridge, they did the same... It was 34C°, luckily there was an elevator in that place, but I still helped the lad...
Second fridge they sent two guys... But they looked at the (one flight of) stairs, and said it couldn't be done... "We'll try it, but then you have to sign a paper making it your responsibility if we damage the wall or the fridge..." Fuck off you lazy cunts... Told 'm to leave it in the hall and moved it with a mate - 30 seconds of work all in all... We then had beer...

The inventor of the string grass trimmer should be lowered head first into a barrel of his own shit.

and so are our 52 inch waistlines.

I actually really like my string trimmer. I bought this a couple of years ago for my tiny front lawn and it works great.

The only thing that's weird about it is you push it like a vacuum, so I get some funny looks from my neighbors who think i'm vacuuming my front lawn.
