You were once a respectable attorney in the state of Washington, D.C. , had a wife and kids, and was a very happy man. But one day, you made the horrible mistake of trying foreign food...haggis.....and became brainwashed and died! Soon after, you were zombified, turning you into an EVIL SCOTT! That's why you hate America so much! But, if you visit America once more, the effects will be reversed and you will be a great alive American attorney again!

Man, I've always really wanted to try haggis.

I know he was joking, What an amazing life I've lead and I'm only 13!

I pass the world's biggest haggis factory every day on the way to work

Wales on the other hand, now if THAT isn't a nation of sheep hugging, angry people....

For shame, veryweirdguy! We all know that the Welsh are a fine fine people, as represented by AGA.

Sheep-hugging? Most likely, but angry? Well...now that you mention it...

Hmmm...nevermind.

AGA · Mon 09/08/2004 20:35:13

How the fuck dare you say all Welsh people are angry?!?!?!?

You know, having spent a week in America for Mittens, I still have no idea what Arby's is.

remixor · Mon 09/08/2004 20:53:19

I think they serve stuff like roast beef sandwiches.

DMonkey · Mon 09/08/2004 21:33:19

That oven mitt mascot alone make me cringe whenever I hear the word "Arby's."

edmundito · Mon 09/08/2004 21:34:47

Arby's is ok... you gotta give them props for trying something different from the average fast food. However, I hate it how they pretend that, because they're different, they have all these tv comercials that make them look like it's sophisticated, adult food, which really is not. If you get sick of eating too many burgers, then you go to Arbys and that's Arby's only purpose in life. Also, they serve sweetened iced tea!

I've been to Chicago, twice, and I've never gone to the Sears tower. I saw it and it was pretty big and I got scared and cried.

Dave Gilbert · Mon 09/08/2004 21:53:16

HEck, I live in New York City and never one went to the top of the Empire State Building, or the Statue of Liberty. Never went to the top of the Twin Towers either, which is kind of a depressing thought.

My girlfriend and I win the award for 'taking the longest to understand something' because after we ate lunch last week (at Arby's) I finaly got that Arby = R B = Roast Beef ... I've been eating at Arby's for almost as long as I can remember and I NEVER clued in on that before.

D'oh!

Pumaman · Mon 09/08/2004 22:11:37

I love the sign on the left of the picture ... now that's a company that's really eager for custom

Tiki · Mon 09/08/2004 22:13:38

I used to like Arby's, because I would get a Yogi Bear toy with my meals every time. It was a coloring book, or something like that. I recently ate at Arby's with my family (maybe DM's one...

). My dad was rushed to the hospital because of a kidney stone that night.

ARBY'S CAUSES KIDNEY STONES!! BAN!!

...hey, it could be true.

Edit: Bah, DM. I never realized that...

That's what it means?! Wow, I'm slow. Then again, English is not really my first language, so word play sometimes doesn't get to me.

I wonder if it used to be called Roast Beef's back in the day... that would be hilarious.

>and Scotland is better than America. I mean we invented TV, Telephone, Grand Theft Auto and Countless other things! you invented (partially) the Nuke.

Er, I hate to disagree, but Bell was an American citizen when he invented the telephone, and no Scotsmen were credited with the invention of TV:

"The credit as to who was the inventor of modern television really comes down to two different people in two different places both working on the same problem at about the same time: Vladimir Kosma Zworykin, a Russian-born American inventor working for Westinghouse, and Philo Taylor Farnsworth, a privately backed farm boy from the state of Utah."

http://www.physlink.com/Education/AskExperts/ae408.cfm

You'll notice Logie Baird came out with a not-as-yet-fully functional version a year after both Zworykin and Farnsworth displayed functioning models to the public.

No offense intended, and I personally like Scotland, but facts are facts are facts

Mephistophilis · Mon 09/08/2004 23:32:08

Logie Baird invented Mechanical Television first (He also blew up Glasgow's Power Supply, What a swell guy!), they made Electronic being Modern Television a bit later, yeah they invented Television as we know it but we did it first, and being an american citizen does not make you americanbut despite that let's see you discredit GTA!

Kweepa · Mon 09/08/2004 23:43:17

I like Arby's too!
Unfortunately the "local" one is up the interstate a bit, so it's a little inconvenient...
