Yep, pretty much 😛
Here American food is categorised by MacDonalds, KFC and Hungry Jacks. None of which are particularly nice.
Having said that, its “Australianised” American because the burgers all have beetroot on them 😀

@valtmy Oh…have you ever been to an American “Chinese” restaurant? (The fake kind.)
-
Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@valtmy But even American Asian restaurants are often “Americanized” and contain all fried and sugared food as well. You’ve got to go to an authentic Asian restaurant to get good food. 😉
I prefer Italian, usually, or Middle Eastern. What about you?

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@seekjustice Haha, I have to admit that American food is known for being all fried, salted, and sugared far beyond the tastes of normalcy, and with reason. We make fun of it ourselves, though. 😉 A lot of people don’t eat fast food much, but it is a real thing.
Wait…there are people who don’t eat pb&j??? Are you serious? Wow. Have you ever…[Read more]

The number one at the moment is your propensity to deep fry everything, closely followed by peanut butter and jelly/jam and the fact that you don’t eat beetroot on burgers.

@seekjustice 😛
The question is…what are American culinary tastes? We have such a mixture here, since we’re a melting pot of all nations. 😉
What particular tastes do they think the general population has that are worth maligning?

@valtmy welcome!
My brother and sister are currently maligning American culinary tastes 😛

@rochellaine Thanks! Yes, I would actually like to know what verses you said didn’t flow very smoothly.
I’ve always liked your poems. 😉
@ariel-ashira Thank you! 😀

Well, I’m sewing, if that counts 🙂

I’m not sure if its a “real” tartan, I’d have to find out. But yes, they are heraldic, so different families have different tartans.

@ariel-ashira Thanks, I’m glad you like my poems. 🙂 I didn’t mean my poems are bad. I meant that they don’t have themes or deep meanings. They are meant simply to entertain – to make people laugh – to be light, fluffy, airy creatures which don’t make you think about the meaning of life.
And while a lot of people, including myself, love to r…[Read more]

@rochellaine You do to write good poems! They are not empty!

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@seekjustice What type of tartan do you wear? (The different ones mean different things, right?)
Haha, I’m an amazing procrastinator too! 😀

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
😛 when I’m tired I always tag either you or myself. Sorry @valtmy .
Well, it turned out okay…I’d hardly say its my best work, but since it’s a petticoat and no one should be seeing it anyway, I’m sure it’s fine. This morning I’m working on a full tartan skirt, which is turning out much better so far.
It’s a costume for a dance…[Read more]

@seekjustice I got notified this morning of a random post from you about sewing lacy petticoats…
I think you meant to tag @valtmy 😉 I was very confused for a bit! Actually I got on KP expecting to see a hilarious picture of a quite ruined lace petticoat sort of like this:

I hope you’ve been able to figure out how to complete the project…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Oh, and every time I read your title I start singing “It’s a Big, Wide, Wonderful World.” 😛

Rochellaine replied to the topic It's a Big World Out There… in the forum Poetry Critiques 7 years, 6 months ago
@jenwriter17 I like it!
Your poem has a much better chance of getting accepted by SE than any of mine do, because yours has meaning, while all mine are silly, empty comic poems. 😛 So congratulations on that! 😀
I don’t know much (anything 😉 ) about free verse, so I can’t give you a lot of suggestions. There are a couple of lines that don’t q…[Read more]
