One of my, no probably my absolute favorite quote from The Office. The one on the BBC. My favorite quote from the one on NBC is from Michael to Oscar, "Is there something less offensive than Mexican that I should be calling you?" Just because that is so offensive on so many levels. Clever.
Anyway.
Back to women being dirty.
I have decided that London is officially dirtier than NYC. Shock. Gasp. Hand to chest.
I know. You probably don't believe me. But listen. (Or read) (Whatever) I LIVE HERE. And you don't!
I'm not talking about trash on the street or in the Tube stations. That's probably better than NYC. What I am talking about is boogers. Now, this is not the first time I've blogged about boogers. Read this.
Every time I come home from being out in the London air and then blow my nose... It's all gray. Or grey. I'm not sure how the spell it here. Probably grey. From soot. Or something like that. There is dirt in my nose!!! A lot of it. Turning boogers everywhere (or at least in my nose) grey. Just from walking around and breathing.
I do not like this.
Isn't this why Charles Dickens wrote Oliver? And other stuff? So that the air would be cleaner?
Gross, right?
"Boogers are dirty"
Interesting... I would not have thought that. Beijing was like that when I lived there in the 90s. And not just grey... somtimes black! Ick.
ReplyDeleteOK, JB...I am laughing hysterically, and I 100% completely agree!! I kept bringing it up the week I was there, but no one seemed to agree. Its so nice to have discovered a kindred booger soul!
ReplyDeletewhen I first moved to NYC I had the SAME PROBLEM. that'll go away. Also, London doesn't stink like NYC in August. WHEW!
