Here in Seattle (the equivalent) is called "South Lake Union Streetcar" known colloquialy as the SLUT.

First year in Europe, Christmas morning after the night before, all hungover.
A Brit staying over in my flat notices food on the table, pipes up with
" Can I nibble your nuts ?"

I was not impressed.

Who's doing what with the language ?

You've not seen the advert then?

This is true, and even then they don't. But that's all part of the joke innit? Same as Canadians chortling when Brits say they need to borrow a rubber.

Brits to Calgary still have a quiet snigger about a road here called the Shaganappi Trail, and a beautiful lake near Banff called Lake Minnewanka.

We just can't help ourselves.

It's not very intelligent of us is it?

High brow, it ain't - but smile-worthy - absolutely!

I have uneven brows

What, like that Roger Moore one-eyebrow-raised-in-a-quizzical-kind-of-way expression that he does?

Zoe Bell

I think I must have mutant eye brows.
everytime I go to get my legs waxed , they always end by asking " did you want your eyebrows done too?"
I haven't plucked up the courage to ask what is so obviously wrong with them that they feel the need to attack them everytime I go in

bats

Pretty close, but they don't move independently. I need to train them better, perhaps there is a Roger Moore eyebrow school?

Oink

At least they didn't asked if you wanted your back done as well.

Zoe Bell

true

Not bad, there aren't too many eyebrow jokes out there.

Oakvillian

Definitely not enough eyebrow jokes. Most comedy is lowbrow.
