According to the Googles:



It is said that living things are made from the original small blue potatoes and blue potatoes for this.
Toka seems perfect for gifts so refreshing and quite delicious potato chips!
I'm rich and I components are included in the blueberries, according to the reader's information.




BLUE POTATOES

Oh I see. Thanks for the explanation! :) I guess that makes sense then. Although I still think she overreacted a little because that's not the only use of the word. XD

Chances are it probably is used like that over here too but I've just never come across it. I never really watch cop shows or read mystery novels or anything like that.

The other day, I was in an action figure store when an American tourist began chatting to me because he thought I was also from the US. When I explained I now study in Canada he automatically remarked on how I didn't have a "Canadian accent." I think it's because "eh" is more of an Ottawa thing, and I've only been in Toronto for 3 years...

But yeah, I suppose if you HAVE to categorize Canadian accents it's between Brits and Americans, though more towards the US side. I once used "beanie" in a McDonald's in Toronto, and some dude like 5 people ahead of me jumped out of line, pointed at me, screamed "YOU'RE AMERICAN TOO! YOU DIDN'T SAY TUQUE!" and gave me a high five.

I had to do my awkward, long-winded "Actually I'm from Hong Kong but went to a British preschool then an international school with American teachers" shtick. But it's kind of nice how Americans automatically bond with me over vocab.

On another note, seems America and I share the same views about going on trips :3 I recall being the only one who preferred the museums over malls on a school trip to Spain, because WHY GO TO H&M WHEN WE HAVE TONS BACK HOME??

I've had green pancakes before, it was on St. Patricks Day. My mom just added green food coloring to the pancake mix. I remember asking her after giving my pancake an 'WTF'/is this edible look for about 5 seconds. It tasted like any other pancake so they are safe to eat.

Wait, you would have cookouts where the only ketchup is green and purple?! D8 *mentally insert here a picture of tons of screaming* Was that some kind of fad or something?! It sounds disgusting!! D8;;;

LOL England looks totally uninterested in that first panel.

The many types of English language is quite a problem to people like me whose first language isn't English. And it's even more confusing when you have expat teachers from both America and Britain.

One of the thing that still confuses me is the use of "Miss" and "Mrs.", because I always thought that "Miss" is used to address young, unmarried women, while "Mrs." is for married women. Can someone enlightened me?

"Their speak is lower in comparison, so it's easier to understand." Is he talking about America or UK? Because if he is talking about UK, surely he must be joking. I've been bombarding myself with British shows for the past couple of years and still sometimes I go "WTF are you saying?" This is especially true when I'm watching stand-ups and QI.

This is a belated reply since I was on vacay this week, but on the subject of "ma'am"...I'm 23 and I'm usually addressed as "miss" which is fine but just recently, after taking a kayak ride, the guy helping me out of it who was about the same age as me, maybe a little older, called me "ma'am" and it kind of offended me (as I’ve always associated that title with someone who’s over 30 rather than in their early 20s). I didn't say anything, but I figured we were too close in age for him to call me by that title and since I’m from the northeast it isn’t common to call people “sir” or “ma’am” unless you’re in the military. :U

Lol We had a whole Dr. Seuss Day in the second grade where we made Green Eggs and Ham. I think that's what got me immune to the disgust of neon colored food [*is originally from Guatemala*] It's just food dye~ [unless stated otherwise]

See up in the North East [or at least my part of the New England], we just say "Excuse me," when trying to get a strangers attention, other than that I don't really hear that often o3o I think only little children say "Mister" or "Miss"

As an avid Peanuts watcher, I don't care what gender you are, I'll still call you "Sir"
