I always assumed chips were just thicker fries which you don't get in America.

 

We have fries too. I prefer chips.

 

Of course, that system would require that you start calling crisps, crisps, instead of chips, like we do in England, freeing up the term chips to refer to fries so fries can return to it's original meaning of french fries rather than just being an umbrella term for all chips and fries, or fries and fries as you would say in America.

 

So in conclusion, it is all very silly and I very much enjoy a chip sandwich.

 

Chip Sandwich?

Surely you mean two grain ovens, covered in runny churn of cow, with several steak fries inbetween.

To use the American parlance. :grin:

Actually...

Fries pretty much just refer to french fries; those fried, slightly rectangular slices of potato that you usually get with fast food. Chips refer to what you call "crisps", very thin (Or slightly less thin) fried slices of potato (Or other roots and vegetables) that people eat as a snack. If we use 'fries' as an umbrella term for anything, it's just for fried slices of potato, since there seem to be multiple styles for cutting them. They do have specific names, I just don't know them :razz:

 

So if an American says "Chips and fries", that's what they're referring to. And it works quite well for us :mrgreen:

Well, considering that I have absolutely no idea why we are talking about various ways to eat potatoes, I'm just going to post about how I switched from Asari-lover to Turian-obsessive.

 

;__; It's all Fura's fault and I do not regret a single moment of any of it.

 

I'm Garrus Vakarian and this in now my favorite spot on the Citadel.

 

 

Okay, I'm done.

The only difference between a disagreement between friends, an argument between strangers, and a feud between enemies is the ability to reconcile.

We have reached page 666.. This is slightly scary.

I don't like him that much. He's kind of.. Actually pretty damn insane.

Angry Birds Space is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The whole use of gravity is really cool.

Well I can't form a personal opinion on any of the characters because I haven't played any of the games. Also.. I would love to try it as a Sentinal.

It's not. Truly, he's just that guy you have to love.

I like how mather put real in quote marks...Underlines the fact that its all nonsense.

Well I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

From the Strange Mind of Leiana: wow, French fries + Alfredo sauce + mushrooms + broccoli + garlic bread = yum.

 

If there was a prize for complete strangeness and annoyingness, I think ive pretty much won that.

Well, when you put it that way, he's pretty much Batman in space :mrgreen:

 

Not much of a troubled past though. He's the cop that doesn't play by the rules in 1 (But can be encouraged to) and probably Shepard's best/only friend in 2.

Also he is quite cute if you romance him :grin: He is very unsure of himself, which is rather nice in comparison to the rest of the game, where you are basically arguing against everything.

 

 

I would say he was more like a Knight from a bygone age, armed with a sniper rifle in one game and Thanix Cannons in the other, honour for a shield and duty as his armour.

Well I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

I can't form a good opinion about any of the characters because I haven't played the game. As I have stated. Just my own poor opinion on it. Gggh. Want to play games..
