  • Fries and snacks slothered in mayonnaise and other sauces, like curry, ketchup and peanut sauce.

    We have names for sauce combinations:

    Fries and … : means fries and mayo, witch is so common it needs not saying the word.

    Mayo, curry/ketchup and diced raw onion: fries special.

    Mayo, peanut sauce and diced raw onion: war fries.

    Fries with doner kebab, salad, garlic sauce +chilly sauce, topped with grilled cheese: fries barber parlor (because the guy that came up with it worked at a barber shop)









  • I caused a minor diplomatic incident between the development organisations of the Netherlands and Germany in a small African country.

    I was working for the Dutch organisation as an intern. There was a little get together of the organisations at a local bar. When introductions were made I used a WW2 term to describe our boss. I said ‘this is our ubersturmbahnfuhrer’.

    This was not the right thing to say, as the leader of the German team was an ex-east German and staunch antifascist with little sense for my perceived ‘humor’. He felt personally insulted by being compared thusly and I had to shamefully go down to their offices and profusely apologize.
