      @seanthesheep 5'9 reads as "five foot, nine" to me. O.O

        @scribuscooper You are too American. You must learn more Anglican idioms. "In English money" means either "In terms I can understand" or "In metric units"

            @jinny Heh. Someone on the next road over has a husky and a German Shepard mix. They both escape an awful lot.

              @seanthesheep Yeah they love to run. xD My grandparents had a Husky shepherd mix too. He was a great dog. Used to babysit me when I was an infant.

                @jinny Heh. My parents brought my eldest brother home, put him down in front of the dog and went to put away some stuff. When they came back, Rosie was curled around him and he was pulling on her ears.

          @seanthesheep So... "In English money" has nothing whatsoever to do with money...

            @scribuscooper Unless you're actually asking for something in pounds sterling, yes.

              @seanthesheep One of these days, I will come to understand English English. And then, I will claim to be bilingual.

                @scribuscooper If you live in this country for twenty years, you'll still learn new things. The only way you can truly understand English English is if you're born with it in your blood.

                  @seanthesheep Maybe if I just pick one dialect I can fake it...
