I would wish that pedantic citizens of the British colony in America stopped
calling whatever misinterpreted waffle they produce, English.
I, sir, as a citizen of that FORMER British colony here on the
continent of North America, am offended by this baseless insult. I
know waffles, sir, I eat waffles and I can guarantee that no American
calls their waffles "English". We have English Muffins and Belgian
Waffles, but no English Waffles. Though I am particularly fond of
Blueberry Waffles, myself.
Which reminds me, time for breakfast.
Dear Jeff, I do applaud your impeccable taste and appreciate the
colourful description of your objections. And I rightfully accept that
you where forced to misinterpret 'waffle' so you could keep consistency
in the classification of being pedantic.
Having said that, I do like to bring to your attention that her
Majesty, never ratified the 'Declaration of Independence'. :-)
