bum

Really sad British slang that the British use every time they try to define arse.

What's really sad about bum is that if only the British would say ass when they mean ass, instead of mispronouncing arse, they wouldn't need to define arse, and wouldn't feel compelled to say bum.

Ramen

An excuse for Americans to pretend to speak Chinese with a Japanese accent. It's hard to say who they're making fun of.

Chinese: It call "lo mein".

Japanese: That what I say, "lroh-main".

American, chanting:

Ra-men!
Ra-men!
Ra-men!
Ra-men!
Ra-men!

Litre

The painfully British spelling of liter. A liter is a few ounces shy of a quart.

In fact, it's downright bashful, because when it was first put into use, it was only a marketing ploy to allow manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers to sell a smaller amount of product for the same price! The only reason we still buy things by the liter, so many years later, is because there's no way that greedy businesses are going to go back to giving us a full quart of product when we pay for one.

Even if you spell Litre Britishly, you still pronounce the E before the R, but you exaggerate the sharpness of the T, just in case anyone might have mistaken you for American. Besides, it makes people laugh, and that's a good thing, right?

Who knows why you capitalize the L!?!
