J-J-Judy don't you get that to us 'mericans anything outside our border is basically the same but different?

Heck, never mind the border. I'm from the East Coast - New York, even - so everything between here and California is basically a blur.

But I happen to know the difference between Burma and India because we have Burmese and Indian restaurants on the same block in my neighborhood.  They don't eat tofu in India.

For the record: I posted "Still not in India!" because it seemed the proper non sequitur to balance "Burma" as a non sequitor. I am well aware that the fine countries of Myanmar and India are not culturally or geographically congruent. THAT IS ALL.

The only place Burma holds in my consciousness is the knowledge that there used to be a brand of shaving cream called "Burma Shave" and they would advertise along roads in a series of one or two word signs that laid out the ad over the course of a mile.

Sort of like "Lost" except that it made sense.

V's comment made perfect sense because Burma is a long way towards India, but still not there.

Just because you're right doesn't mean you couldn't have punched up that post a little...

Dude, you should see if Onstad is still hiring for alt-text writers. You've got that style nailed.

Very nice, mate. Extra points for the word 'bastardness'.

Though, how did you know I was English? There's plenty of non-English folk throughout the world who type in a ridiculously over-affected way.

On the Internet, nobody knows you're a pedant.

No, wait. On the Internet, everyone knows you're a pedant, all the time.
