Transcript:
Customer: Hmmm... what kinds of salad dressings do you have? Elvin: Let me check... okay, we have freedom, patriot, stars & stripes, god bless america, and ranch. Customer: What are those?! The only one I've heard of is ranch! Elvin: Lucky Cow has purged its menu of anything that sounds foreign... these used to be french, italian, russian, and bleu cheese. Customer: How do I know which is which? Elvin: Well, I think stars and stripes might be italian... Customer: Look, never ming, I'll just have a hamburger. Elvin: You mean a liberty patty?
I remember the flap that France created years ago when they decided to purge English words from their vocabulary; they changed French Fries to Pommes frites. We retaliated with calling them Liberty Fries!!! I think they just gave up!!!
