Paid Members chokeout Posted September 28, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 28, 2018 It's the slow decent into us becoming mini-America. I pin point it as starting in 1995, but that's mainly because a load of people from our High School went over on an exchange trip New York and came back calling McDonalds 'Maccie D's'Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted September 28, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 28, 2018 Not in my house it isn't, it's still macaroni cheese. And doughnuts aren't donuts either. Fucking Yanks innit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was even on the front page of the Daily Star. I'm convinced that was a genius marketing campaign rather than a real idea. I say Mac and Cheese. Probably picked it up from Friends. Not that I every have much occassion to say Mac and Cheese. In fact, this is the most I've thought about it for yonks. Anyone who calls biscuits "cookies" is a dick - unless talking about the ones branded as cookies. Another hideous Americanism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted September 28, 2018 Moderators Share Posted September 28, 2018 (edited) You ever seen such a fucking stupid thing as a gender reveal party for an unborn baby? Apparently those have made their way over here as well. So idiotic. Edited September 28, 2018 by Chest Rockwell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted September 28, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 28, 2018 Ugh, yeah they're shit. And I thought baby showers were a load of bollocks, which basically translate into 'come round to ours and be expected to buy stuff for my unborn spawn'.
