Similar to a dinner roll. A biscuit is a cookie in the UK? You learn something new every day. Now what's a milk tray? I hear that sometimes, too.

A box of assorted chocolates. Huge advertising campaign in the 80s used a James Bond type character that would ski mountains, sail rough waters, climb mountains, just to break into a woman's bedroom, leave a box of Milk Tray on her bedside table, with his calling card, and the voiceover would say "All because the lady loves Milk Tray".

Rumours of him finishing on her face whilst she slept, were never proven.

Ah, we have Cadbury, but no Milk Tray. Mostly people here eat Cadbury eggs, but I think they're fucking disgusting.

Ah yeah, I remember now, a biscuit is like a scone.

a cookie is a biscuit
a cracker is a savoury biscuit

[rajjy]

Cracker ass, cracker.

the Cadbury's stuff is made by Hershey, they have the licence for the brand in the USA and Canada and it's not the same.

I've stopped talking to people over the fake Andy Rooney racist e-mail.

Last year when I called someone out on how sick and racist and obviously not Andy Rooney that message was, I had the senders elderly mother write me back and call me a sick person because she absolutely believed that Andy was right and that "coloreds" are the problem in America and she supports CBS and Andy in his views regarding "those people". They're ruining America. And g-d bless the troops.

Oh yeah, later on, these same people forwarded on this e-mail:

Proud To Be White

Someone finally said it. How many are actually paying attention to this?

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans,
Asian Americans, Arab Americans, Native Americans, etc.
And then there are just Americans.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You Call me "White boy," "Cracker," "Honkey,"
"Whitey," "Caveman" .. and that's OK.

But when I call you, Nigger, Towel head, Sand-nigger,
camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink ... you call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you,
so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

You have the United Negro College Fund. You have Martin Luther King
Day. You have Black History Month. You have Cesar Chavez Day. You
have Yom Hashoah You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi You have the NAACP.

You have BET.

If we had WET (White Entertainment Television) .. we'd be racists.

If we had a White Pride Day .. you would call us racists.

If we had White History Month .. we'd be racists.

If we had any organization for only whites to "advance" OUR lives ..
we'd be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of
Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce.
Wonder who pays for that?

If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships
... you know we'd be racists. There are over 60 openly proclaimed
Black Colleges in the US , yet if there w ere "White colleges" ..
THAT would be a racist college.

In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching
for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights,
you would call us racists.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're
not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride ..
you call us racists.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer
shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug-dealer running
from the law and posing a threat to society .. you call him a racist.

I am proud.

But, you call me a racist.

Why is it that only whites can be racists?

There is nothing improper about this e-mail.

Let's see which of you are proud enough to send it on.

I wonder how long they would be including the aftershows....
