The movie only barely alludes to racial inequality in America. When Cap puts together his crack team of commandos, they’re a rainbow coalition, and nobody acts like that’s weird. I wasn’t around in the ’40s, but given what I know, that seems unlikely.

I didn’t realize a common courtesy that has been practiced for hundreds of years had become so complicated.

Get Smart was created by Mel Brooks and Buck Henry??

I had a customer come in who wanted his Irish soda bread burnt. I, thinking he meant very brown served it to him that way. He politely said no, really I meant burnt. So that’s what I did: I toasted it until the smoke alarm almost went off.

I assumed they all just used their own spoons.

People aren’t allergic to chicken. That’s retarded.

but they still believe they need to hate someone/something?

. He had perfected the art of getting behind us and casually copping a feel whenever possible.

The best Italian restaurant I’ve ever been to was owned by Poles in Texas. The first time I ate there it was surreal. :D

This was one of the hardest things for me to get used to here in China: Food bits go on the table. All their meat has bones in it (tiny little pieces of bone that sneak up on your gums like delicious duck ninjas and slice you with bone-swords of terror). You suck the meat off the bone bits, then spit the bones onto…

For reasons no one has adequately been able to explain, it’s being called the Modern Chinese Burger.

<<Hides the fact that he's making turtles with home-made caramel right now>>

Was it white cheddar? Or was it Monterey Jack with peppers? Pepper Jack is very common, and frequently used in Mexican food back home, but I’ve never seen cheddar with peppers.

This was one of the kids who worked in the coffee shop, and the cookies were for sale to the customers. He just broke down from day after day of looking at them.

I used to tease the vegan high-schoolers at a coffee shop I frequented. “There’s no such thing as soy milk. There are no teets on a soy bean.” :D

Are you kidding? It’s going to be a whole series next season: CSI:Starbucks. They’re just waiting for the licensing agreement to be signed.

The Chinese drink hot water. They believe that cold water is bad for you (“It’s bad for your healthy!”). I have a “water cooler” in my apartment that has “Hot” and “normal”. The “normal” is still heated.

Okay.

I really don’t appreciate being slandered.

See... I think this is hilarious.
