“Ever notice movie posters often have characters that don’t even show up in the film”

Thank you so much for this! I’m one of those people who really hates watching videos for stuff that can easily be described in text, & I really appreciate you making the effort. :)

Only those who were selling it as such prior to 2006, but yes. The Wikipedia article on Champagne has the nitty-gritty details.

“I am guessing the same way that English speakers butcher, Fort Huachuca or Saguaro here in southern AZ.”

“The fact that she thought the service was SO BAD that it warranted an email to here, that to me is the behavior I mean.”

“PS. to Europeans, champagne has to come from the Champagne region - it’s technically against the (EU mandated) law to do otherwise (and the Champagne folk ensure that it is enforced). Everything else is sparkling wine. I appreciate the definitions are looser here.”

“Duly noted. From now on I’ll leave five-star reviews only. Even (or especially? I’m not sure what’s the etiquette is here) if the waiter swishes his dick in my coffee to stir the sugar.”

“I think my snarky reply that NO YOU ARE WRONG AND NEED TO SPECIFY SUCH ALTERATIONS ruined his chances with the girl, and it made me so happy.”

You expect nuance from a 10YO who knows only that he was made deathly ill by some asshole?

That’s a nice start. When are the mortgage fraudsters from 2008 going to be jailed?

“Yeah, she does sound like a bit of a snob.”

“when (in America, even Texas), bourbon whiskey is referred to as ‘bourbon’ and scotch whisky is referred to as ‘scotch.’ A professional knows this, most people know this.”

[Bourbon vs whiskey] Plenty of other people agree with me, but that’s a matter of personal taste & not really the point, of course.

“My sense of humor is just fine”

“So was I, but apparently I’m not allowed.”

“So was I, but apparently I’m not allowed. “

“So was I, but apparently I’m not allowed.”

“Anything else you’d like? My address, perhaps?”
