and so alive

[raven]

I had a stupid wanky entry here. I have got rid of it, because it was wanky. Instead, I shall just express joy that my friends-of has reached 200 (wtf, world, wtf, I am boring as toast), and ask politely if anyone has Ryan Adams' So Alive and could possibly upload it for me.

Toast is pretty amazing.

Should I ever end up in Great Britan...well, it just wouldn't work out. "Have got" is correct grammar? No one worships at the shrine of root beer? Coke is not a generic noun for soda pop? MIND BOGGILING.

"Have got" is perfect grammar. You Yanks and your archaisms. *g* I have never had root beer, I must say. Also, we don't say soda pop, either!

That's okay; you're not alone. Plenty of Americans will tell you that "pop" for "soda" is wrong, wrong, wrong! :D Arguing over that set of terms is the national pastime.

I...it's just...oh, hell, I need to go drink some beer, eat Cheetos and watch football.

Hee. Let me guess: you're from the South, right? I remain perplexed by the use of "Coke" as a generic term for soda, and I am American!

Yes! Outside of Atlanta, actually...the home of Coca-Cola. "What kinda coke d'you want?" is a phrase of much contention with my New York-born parents. ^_^
