Fair point. My bad.

Bah, you give up too soon.

More like it was never necessary to say so. States also don't declare oxygen as the official respiratory chemical either.

Well, without carbon dioxide we wouldn't have proper respiration, so that makes sense. Of course, that's the reason why no State has done so. Why are you looking at me like that?

Great praise coming from the land of the chicken-fried chicken. It may have been the spanish but the earliest known recipe comes from a french book.

As others have pointed out, we also have chicken-fried steak. And okra. And fish.

In our greatness, our hubris, we have managed to deep fry ice cream. Look upon our works, ye mighty, and despair!

Maybe. Attributions vary. But it never came from Mexico. Just Chi-Chis. Which is pretty funny for contextual reasons.

On topic, yup, Granma's zinger was nicely delivered. I'm a little surprised at Hilgya's shaken reaction...but at least she played nice.
