Of course she says they are the same as French crepes, but I tell her she only thinks that because she went to finishing school. She's in for a surprise tomorrow when I make shitty flat two-ingredient pancakes for her without bubbles, served with her choice of either lemon and sugar or golden syrup on its own.

Wait, how is that related?

You said I must enjoy the pancakes and swore at me in French, I took that as a you'll adopt the American and English crappy pancake and like it joke. My response was going off thar assumption and I made up a fake history of English pancakes being based on them perverting crepes after they were introduced to britannia during the Norman conquest. I thought we were riffing.

Oh okay... I guess I was kinda half joking...

Edit: that being said, confusing Canadian French with Parisian French, is like confusing the Omaha landing as being done by the British...

That being said, I'm not Franco-Canadian, I'm just playing a character that curses in Quebecois french...

I don't really get why you're confused tbh.
