You can fill the chicks all you want, it’s the fellas you can’t pork. Also not even remotely surprised that the British are incapable of pronouncing even the simplest French loanwords.

Religious fundies would actually prefer that you fill the chicks, as condoms are a mortal sin

At least you arent like my mother who pronounced it Chick-fill-ah and thought it was supposed to describe the three step process of ordering chicken, becoming full, and then saying “ah” in satisfaction.

You never corrected her, right? Because I need more people like this in life. Correcting her would do the world a disservice.

I never heard of Chick-Fill-A until I read Tucker Max's book about being an rear end in a top hat (and his followup book about being a rich rear end in a top hat) and then the next time I heard of it it was because they were homophobic. Then I found out their slogan is basically a desperate anthropomorphic Jew-cow trying to quissling his way or whatever it's called to good favor by selling out another race to the ovens. Everything about them sounds terrible.

Fun fact: 'adult' and 'adolescent' are both from the same Latin root word adolescere (grow up, come to maturity, ripen) but 'adolescent' is from the present participle tense adolescentem (growing, approaching maturity, ripening) and 'adult' is from the past participle tense adultus (grown, matured, ripe)

'Fillet' is an English word that rhymes with 'millet'. It is both a noun and a verb. The French word 'filet', pronounced 'fillay', may sometimes be found on restaurant menus which often have French names for dishes. While I'm at it, in English some cheese is blue. If you're not French it isn't 'bleu' for some loving reason. Unkempt has a new favorite as of 11:42 on Jun 6, 2018 |

Unless you're talking about, say, a metal fillet (rounding of an inside or outside corner).

According to the dictionary it does have some non-food definitions that are pronounced like “fill-it”, but yeah the cut is a fil-Ayy I’m walkin here!

the french word filet means fillet, which is done with a filleting knife. TIL filet mignon is actually a pork tenderloin

Metal Geir Skogul posted:You mean beef tenderloin, right? no the link you're quoting posted:In French this cut is always called filet de bœuf, which translates in English to beef fillet. The reason that this cut in French is always called filet de boeuf is because, in French, filet mignon always means pork tenderloin.
