Freedom Kissing?

06-04-2004, 11:53
Just a thought, I'm not sure if I remember it correctly, but when the 'french fries' became 'freedom fries', did the 'french kissing' become 'freedom kissing' as well? Or was it a too sexually hot potatoe for the freedom loving people?

I think french kissing just became what it always was...gross.

Heh just kidding...I don't hate french kisses. Although, considering I've never had one, I can't say as I like them either.
Anyway, you make an interesting observation. I guess they just restricted it to food.
During the Cold War, they called Russian sald dressing "Commie Sauce" in the Pentagon cafeteria.

Eh, who cares?

All I know, it be fun. :p ;)

[EDIT: Utopio, during the Cold War, stores in America started selling "Freedom Fries". Which were just French Fries in that funny big nose and glasses getup. :p]

Same as french fries with a different name. It was the retaliation by Americans towards the French when the French didn't want to participate in the 'liberation' of Iraq. I just wondered if they were consequently changching all things called 'french' to 'freedom'...

How incrediably petty and stupid. About the same level of insult as calling someone a poo-poo head.

We just call them chips.

I don't think France actually noticed, considering the rest of the world calls them 'chips' or 'fries.

I have thought that we English speakers should banish the word "chips", to be replaced with fries and crisps, so there is no confussion. Just don't go and serve me cookies when I want my biscuits and gravy! :?

Freedom Fries and Freedom toast. I think I remember hearing freedom kissing sometimes as well. People tried to change Belgian waffles, but since Belgium didn't get nearly the cover on the media as France did, it didn't pick up.

Yeah, just "Chips" (England, Australia, New Zealand), "Fries"
(America, Canada or the insistations of any McDonald's assistant in the above countries)


The assistants ALWAYS say "we have to call them 'fries' " if you ask them for chips. Just like, if you ask for a coke at KFC, they always say that you ordered a "pepsi", and vice-versa for McDonald's. Too bad they're not so precise when describing the REST of the contents of the bag of KFC, i.e. "1 box of s :shock: t covered in s 8) t, deep-fried in
s :!: t ".

I thought all the anti-French hysteria in much of the US during the war on Iraq was hilarious, especially given that France is the oldest ally of the USA I think. For much of last year I was wondering if some redneck Conservative group from the Bush-supporting MidWest would begin petitioning for the Statue of Liberty to be returned to France... alas, I don't think it ever happened. Ah well...
06-04-2004, 19:13
Aww, thanks Daistallia! I knew you had it in you!

Didn't there use to be a lot of French people here on NS when the anti French hysteria reached new levels also here in NS? Maybe they gave up on NS back then...

[OOC: As I recall, it did become "freedom kissing."

I've taken to simply calling the fried potatoes "fries" and leaving it at that, not just for the sake of any retaliation against the French, but just because I like to use as few words as possible. :twisted:

Just to state for the record, I didn't have any animosity toward the French for opposing the war since I myself oppose it. I just saw the ridiculous humour behind it and chose to go with it for a while. The funny thing is, I never referred to "freedom toast" or "freedom kisses," I tended to call the kiss something along the lines of "over my dead body" and I stuck with French toast. Why mess with my favorite breakfast item?]

First dinner invitation, taken by my mother.

"Hey Anne, want to come over for tea?"
"What time? 4:00?" (Expecting it to be crumpets and tea, you know)
"Nah, that's too early. Around 6."
"6? We'll be having dinner then..."

If (as the song says) "Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose", then maybe France really is just a nation of "cheese eating surrender monkeys"?

I can just picture the politician that thought of this sitting at a table staring into his plate of chips in deep thought...After a minute the thought comes to him: "I'll just give the crap I eat new names! Yeah! YEAH! That'll SHOW 'EM!"
