Americanisms... 'Chassis' is one that bugs me. Wtf is a 'cha-siss'?

The word "mirror" has become a single syllable. Meeeeeeeer.

I wanted to invent a new kind of quiche
But I couldn't think of a filling niche
So I chopped up the dog and mixed with eggnog
And made the world's first flan with a leash

If alt doesn't work try the other 'Alt Gr' key (right alt)

I was having trouble ordering something off a website the other day, I phoned them directly and the chap suggested I clear the "keesh" in my browser then try again.
