im not seeing any straight questions either.

 

As far as I know, the website does not have a tag of nationality on it (ex: .ru, .al, etc etc)

 

so no, it is not a Yank site.

are crisps also called crisps over there?

 

I've heard variations such as 'crips' from some illiterate wank job of a train serviceman, chips I've also heard being called.

 

What do the Americans call them? and I bet they don't have Pickled Onion Monster Munch (currently numero uno best snack on the planet)

I hear similarly scary things, like 'Grits' which according to my blonde Texan friend is something that dirty filthy cotton pickin n!#¤%rs eat. Tho it sounds like something that COULD have the potential of being an addition to ye olde Grande English fry up.

 

In some states in America, police (or 'cops') are allowed to arrest chickens if they remain unfried for more than 24hours.

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

 

IN THE BEGINNING, 1992, Warp Records releases a compilation called Artificial Intelligence, which they use to promote their line up of artists.

 

Coil's Love Secret Domain is referred to as intelligent techno 2 years before Allen Perry starts his mailing list. The term was used somewhat in Britain and Europe to my understanding.

 

Also, Americans did not have the techno background that Europeans had, and to them techno was like CC Penniston. Most were probably more into industrial, aggro, etc. and had never heard any Phuture, Drexciya, Kevin Saunderson, etc. To them Aphex Twin and Autechre was more intelligent than anything else they'd heard.

 

So don't blame us, it is just kinda how it all went down.

I'll take that as a yes to the IDM thang then

 

I love all nations...except Australia, I physically cannot stand the accent it's not my fault. And I find America the most interesting of all, as it is the teenager of the world, if you will.

 

Can you spread any light on the Monster Munch question and or the Grits thang?

Grits are horrible and I don't personally like them, but some people do. As I am sure your third-world snack obsession is probably in that same category.
