Why do you think anyone finds that in any way amusing? It's meaningless.
Re: WHAT'S THE 411???
I think ConfederateSS means some poster is missing? 411 missing people report?
I had to fill out 3 missing people reports on 3 of my exes.

Re: WHAT'S THE 411???
I worked with a guy once who told me "I'm gonna dump my girlfriend!"
"Oh," sez I, "Why's that?"
"That's the third time she's moved without telling me her new address!"

Re: WHAT'S THE 411???
some say that 420 is better
IYKYK

catstevens: you are now an honorary American TG...Congrats
Re: WHAT'S THE 411???
I heard using 420...lead to the use of higher numbers?
Re: WHAT'S THE 411???
Alright, I gave in and looked it up. Apparently it's the directory assistance phone number, and is American slang for relevant information, details, or gossip.
Meaningless outside of the USA because a) it's not that phone number and b) the rest of the world would write it as 11/4.
Apparently 420 is to do with marijuana use - nothing to be proud of for the approximate 22% of Americans who do, which is more than treble the UK use and four times the global average...and these are people who have guns...
The only date that has any wider resonance that I'm aware of is Star Wars day, and that's because it doesn't use numbers.

You're right, but you should also include pi day, 3.14, in that list.Apatheist wrote: Sun Apr 12, 2026 2:44 pm Alright, I gave in and looked it up. Apparently it's the directory assistance phone number, and is American slang for relevant information, details, or gossip.

Also only works in the U.S., because anyone else calls it 14/3.

Re: WHAT'S THE 411???
The way of writing dates isn't metric - officially the metric way is YYYY-MM-DD.
May the 4th works because we say it that way, it's the illogical way you write it that's the problem.
As for checking Americans - what's the name of the language that you speak (more or less)?
Given recent behaviour, the one thing Americans do need is checking - in the sense of "keeping in check"

You're proud of cancer-causing cigarettes - nice.
Boasting about being 250 years old, to someone from a country that's been around for nearly 1000.
As for Star Wars:
Star Wars was filmed globally, mixing studio sets in the UK (Elstree, Pinewood) with iconic natural landscapes. Key filming locations include Tunisia (Tatooine), Norway (Hoth), Redwood National Park (Endor), Guatemala (Yavin 4), Italy (Naboo/Villas), Spain (Naboo), Bolivia (Crait), Ireland (Ahch-To), and Iceland.
BTW it would have helped if you'd turned up when the world wars started...still, I see you're being really punctual this time.
