    - the NSFW tag appends a string to the link title that says (Possibly NSFW) (hopefully that's not what you're referencing) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 17, 13:17 1
      - Yeah, I opened and saw the NSFW and figured it was not. Note: I did not tag it, though. -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 17, 13:18

        Just let us win this one. The next two should be fun, but this one... I am hoping the starters do as you said. -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 17, 13:02

Today's "Adventures In Canada" story: so we go to Tim Horton's because Jacen needed some chocolate Timbits, and we needed coffees. - TFox Dec 17, 12:42 62
- just so you know - there are NICE places to eat in Canada. - Andie Cane Dec 17, 12:58 19
  - Swiss Chalet!! - Diva Dec 17, 13:02 3
    - oh, damn! I haven't been to a Swiss Chalet in probably 25 years. -- nm - decline Dec 17, 13:19
    - i do love swiss chalet. it's really the only chain i'll voluntarily eat in. -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 17, 13:07 1
      - I miss the one in Buffalo. -- nm - Diva Dec 17, 13:11
  - actually, if you want a wonderful dining experience, you should go to Peller Estates up at Niagara-on-the-Lake - Roger More Dec 17, 13:02
  - TFox is on a budget. A budget that got constricted significantly when Jacen's daycare decided to bill us four times this week, instead of once. - TFox Dec 17, 12:59 13
    - can't they reverse that crap? I hate when this happens - there should be a penalty for businesses who can't do this correctly. -- nm - Pippy Bells Dec 17, 13:12 3
      - it's a little complicated, in that it took them a few weeks when Jacen first started to get the withdrawals set up... - TFox Dec 17, 13:16 1
        
        Reason #43 that I don't have any auto deductions from my checking other than my home loan -- nm - kilbowl full of jelly Dec 17, 13:17

    - awesome! -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 17, 13:00 7
      - Luckily, souvenirs are easy: a pressed penny at the Falls, 30 cents of Canadian Tire money, and maybe a Christmas ornament. Easy peasy. -- nm - TFox Dec 17, 13:07 6
        
        did you do Maid of the Mist? the tunnels behind the Falls? any of that? - Andie Cane Dec 17, 13:08 5
        
        Maid is closed for the winter. Tunnels are open but the observation deck at the bottom is closed, so... meh. - TFox Dec 17, 13:12 3
        
        oh oh oh, the butterfly conservatory is pretty nice (and warm! it's like a walk through the tropics.) -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 17, 13:12 2
        
        we almost did that. we opted to save the $25. looked awesome though. (i think it's basically Bird Kingdom, for butterflies.) - TFox Dec 17, 13:14 1
        
        so glad you're having fun. :) -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 17, 13:18
        
        (also, it must be FREEZING there.) -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 17, 13:10
- I've got a similar story from when I went to Niagara Falls and went to Denny's for an American breakfast experience - Roger More Dec 17, 12:50 23
  - I only like grits with scrambled eggs mixed in. -- nm - sycor Dec 17, 12:54
  - You got the doubletake becuase you don't have a drawl :) -- nm - con_carne Dec 17, 12:53
  - the problem here is not the grits, but that you're ordering them from Denny's. :) -- nm - merry xmas and happy znu year Dec 17, 12:53
  - ~puttin' on the grits~ -- nm - Beaker Dec 17, 12:51
  - heh. grits are mad yummy, but i don't know if Canadian grits would be the best version. -- nm - TFox Dec 17, 12:51 3
    - In this case it was more chain grits than Canadian grits -- nm - Roger More Dec 17, 12:52 1
      - we actually always have a canister of instant grits in the cabinet. not quite the same, but yummy enough. -- nm - TFox Dec 17, 12:54
    - *sprinkles sand on your food* gritty enough? -- nm - Beaker Dec 17, 12:52
  - Good choice. :) -- nm - kelly Dec 17, 12:51
  - I actually like grits. -- nm - Reagen Dec 17, 12:51 13
    - I got the impression that even if you like grits, you really didn't want to have these particular grits -- nm - Roger More Dec 17, 12:51 11
      - well, it was Dennys. General good sense says you don't want to eat at dennys at all, anyway. :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 17, 12:52 10

        YSMM -- nm - con_carne Dec 17, 12:55
        
        For me, it's like going to IHOP or Outback Steakhouse. I have to go, at least once - Roger More Dec 17, 12:54 7
        
        Did it feel like Australian blackface? -- nm - Reagen Dec 17, 13:11 1
        
        It was surprisingly mundane. The equivalent would be putting a moosehead and some native American art on the walls, putting a random Canadian place - Roger More Dec 17, 13:16
        
        IHOP and Dennys, while similar in concept, aren't (in my book) in the same ballpark as far as quality. - Beryllium Dec 17, 13:07 3
        
        re-reading your post I'm not sure which one you think is worse -- nm - Roger More Dec 17, 13:10 2
        
        I had a bad experience at Dennys. Over-greasy/over-watery (I couldn't tell which) Moons Over My Hammy. It was barf-worthy. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 17, 13:13 1
        
        The missus has pre-emptively refused to come to IHOP with me, when I go -- nm - Roger More Dec 17, 13:18
        
        bloomin onions are awesome -- nm - sycor Dec 17, 12:55
    - I have never had grits, I don't think ... but I guess I'd try them, based on the description I read once. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 17, 12:51
- that's sugar syrup, not maple syrup. :) -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 17, 12:46 2
  - actually, I think they meant that the iced coffee is a flavoured syrup :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 17, 12:47 1

- that's nothing - have you tried the iced tea yet? :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 17, 12:44 5
  - ...no? like sweet tea? -- nm - TFox Dec 17, 12:47 4
    - um, maybe. Like iced tea in the US ... but with a lot of sugar. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 17, 12:47 3
      - that's pretty much what sweet tea is... -- nm - merry xmas and happy znu year Dec 17, 12:48 1

Does greek pizza normally have ground beef in it? I mean, I like ground beef on pizza, but this seems unusual to me -- nm - Beryllium Dec 17, 12:34 14
- well they "call" it beef -- nm - Danedukenuuk Dec 17, 12:53
- I've never heard of this, but I'm... intrigued -- nm - con_carne Dec 17, 12:48
- greek pizza in PA is not about the toppings but about the crust. -- nm - amanda Dec 17, 12:41 2
  - and what do the Greeks do in PA to their crust? -- nm - CQ Dec 17, 12:43 1
    - They stuff it. - Beryllium Dec 17, 12:52
- I think it usually has lamb/gyro meat. -- nm - kelly Dec 17, 12:37 1
  - (never mind.) - kelly Dec 17, 12:45
- no. almost always, in my experience, it's feta/olives. maybe spinach or another green. - b.festive. Dec 17, 12:36 1
  - heh, there's a wikipedia entry. nm but: -- (link) - b.festive. Dec 17, 12:38
