    Isn't this a conundrum?
    Aren't I wondering if Australian scones are like American biscuits, while American scones are unlike American biscuits, but even less like Australian biscuits, which they're nothing like? 🤔😂

    Don't I think american biscuits are like Australian scones and Australian biscuits are like American cookies?

    Could someone confirm as I am not sure about this?

    Aren't you correct about that? But what are American scones like?
    And what's the difference between fries, chips and crisps?

    Shouldn’t we settle soccer vs football now?

    Yes, you are correct, aren’t you?

    Isn’t the difference the cut? Is it a slice instead of a batonet?

    @Mtn_hikin are you catching up on a lot weekend of questions? 😂

    Wasn't I alluding to the fact that what Americans call fries the British call chips, and what Americans call chips the British call crisps? Don't I guess that Canadians, Australians and New Zealanders, among others, would agree with the Brits?

    If a football (soccer) pro and an [American] football pro can't agree, what hope do we have?
    Should we ask a rugby player to decide, as a disinterested third party?

    Don't we in Australia call both fries and crisps "chips" ?

    Didn't I get a gourmet whipped cream maker for my birthday? And didn't I make luscious hot chocolate with homemade whipped cream this evening?

    have you heard of context?

    if somebody asks if you want chips with your steak would you think they meant fries or crisps, even though we call both "chips" ?

    Would a photo of this morning's coffee suffice? Isn't fancy nice sometimes?

    Aren't I still getting the hang of working with the dispenser? Do you think once I've mastered it, the whipped cream might be a little thicker?

    How blown away do you think I was when my son surprised me over the weekend with an early Christmas gift of going together to watch my favorite American Football team in person? Given how much cheering occurred, is it any wonder I have zero voice today and can communicate with coworkers only via email?

    Wasn't that very thoughtful of him? Doesn’t it sound like you enjoyed yourself?

    Is anybody still interested in seeing my fancy hot chocolate?

    Wouldn't we be more interested in TASTING it rather than SEEING it?

    Is that required for all coffees or just fancy ones?
