Read a book by Dan Brown.
Wear matching pyjama top and bottoms.
Understand machinery.
Eat ox tongue.
Say ‘barth’ and ‘parth’ and ‘grarss’ instead of bath and path and grass.

Become a cowboy film fan.
Mistake truffle butter for some kind of cream cheese and spread it on toast (as a friend did recently, which deeply offended me).
Think about Marmite with any level of excitement.
Watch the shopping channel on TV. Not even when they’re doing the kitchen appliances show.

What exactly IS celeriac?
Posted by lazylauramaisey on October 16, 2012 at 11:48
Exactly. What is it? What is its point in life? Why does it exist? (It’s a kind of whitish knobbly looking thing that is of the winter veg family. It’s nonsense.)

Ah, Marmite! I tried it during a class when I studied abroad–yuck!

Yeh. It’s just doesn’t do it for me. It’s ok, I guess. But it’s just like salt. So I’d rather actually use salt, instead.

Ha! True!

Have you seen Tombstone? 3:10 to Yuma (the new one) or Lonesome Dove? You might like them. Lonesome Dove is a beautiful book so at least do yourself that favor. I remember when the DaVinci Code came out. My dad was reading it and I wanted to read the book after him. I asked if it was good and dad said, “Yeah it’s good, he’s full of shit but it’s a good book.”
Jellied eel and ox tongue??? What in the hell is going on over there???

Yeh, I know. What on earth? It’s not the bloody war anymore! This nonsense doesn’t need to exist. I have seen 3:10 to Yuma actually. I don’t remember it very well though. Is it good?

I will also skip the tomato juice.

I am one of the tribe that love Marmite.
Posted by lazylauramaisey on October 18, 2012 at 08:14
Don’t get me wrong. I don’t hate it. I’m just not excited by it.
