| Have you tried Problem Sleuth? Or maybe Jailbreak? How about Bard Quest?
Ooh! You should read Dr. Brinner: Ghost Psychiatrist. It's Hussie's longest work, even longer than Homestuck. I had a link around here somewhere, not sure where I left it... | |

| I never read Dr. Brinner, I thought that was by someone else? Read Neon Headache Icecream or what's it called again though. And It Don't Stop is great, too - Shaula wrote:

| So I just returned from the pizza place, and number 8 was a seafood pizza.
Coincidence? Or does SOMEONE there read Homestuck? | |

| They don't do it in silly old England, but tradition says the french fries must be arranged to spell the words 'hon hon baguette' prior to consumption. | |

| They are called that because they come from Belgium, where people sometimes speak french.
Which is why the German word for it is actually just french, it's called Pommes Frites (sometimes "Fritten" for short), which mean fried potatoes, as far as I know. | |

| But my version is the truth...
American Soldiers first encountered them from people from Belgium and since they were talking french, the soldiers called them "french fries", 'cause those guys spoke french and the potatoes were fried.
We Germans just took some French words for it. Or we call them either Fritten or Pommes, Pommes being pretty much just the french word for Potato
I don't know why british people call them chips though | |

| But potatoes were for the longest time considered food for the poor which were, at the time mostly dutch-speaking factory workers, so they were probably the ones who invented them. On the other hand, frying them would have been pretty expensive back then. And I guess the class diferences faded over time. (Now flanders is richer hah) But gdi couldnt they just call them belgian fries itd make so much more sense
I live in belgium by the way | |

They let slightly confused American soldiers name them. What'd you expect? | |

| Hellavent. Fuck yes.
I'd quote the thing, but I'm at a friend's house so meh. (I'm showing her Homestuck and were showing each other YouTube videos.)
So I'll just leave this here:
*patriotic eagle screech in the distance*
UPDATE: I'm now showing her Police Squad. | |

| So the first post on page 52 on 5/2 is a patriotic eagle screech
I know it's supposed to mean Murrica
and therefore lead to the question of which country, Murrica or Poland, has more neat little 52 associations
BUT
you didn't specify that bald eagle so I'll just assume you meant POLAND'S national animal | |
