Default First News Thread: Geno's Is English Only

Story on AOL

No English, no cheese-steak.

Apparently, someone's looking for a lawsuit.

That's assy, but I would expect nothing else from someone who sells "freedom fries." That said, he's free to do what he wants. I wonder if, on balance, it will help or hurt business.

In other news, ew cheesesteak.

She's a vegetarian. Cheesesteak definitely isn't in her diet.

Hee! "Assy" is one of my favorite made-up words. See also assholery and jackassery.

I can understand the frustration of citizens not speaking the official language (this is something I face daily), but what about tourists? One of the many things on my to do list when I visited Philly was to have a cheesesteak. Sure I speak English, but what about those visiting the city who don't, but want to partake in a Philly tradition? It doesn't exactly emote brotherly love...

You got a point. I hate the fact that there are tons of citizens that don't even feel the need to learn Enlgish, but there still are tourists out there that shouldnt have to.

It isn't exactly brotherly love at all.
