I loved traveling to the to the UK as an American. My only regret is that I din’t learn the language first. So many of the things in London were slightly funny. Road and tube line/stop names (Piccadilly, Elephant & Castle), restaurants (Assault & Battery [fish & chips shop], Nicomsoup), the price of a doughnut and small coffee at Piccadilly (£7.40) and staggering, jet lagged, into a Piccadilly Circus Starbucks for a morning Butty. This was also the trip that I played “Prounce That” with a group of Django developers. What’s “Pronounce That”? Well, we noticed that we kept pronouncing things differently so we started taking turns writing down a common Python/Django package and saying “pronounce that”. Psycho-PG was probably my favorite.
