when I was eating at an Olive Garden in downtown Toronto, I asked this righteous babe of a waitress where the reputed Eaton mall was and what kind of people shop there. I had to define "muckety-mucks" to her since that term isn't used in Canada. I explained "fatcat", and had to define that word for her, too. She explained to me where I needed to go and remarked about my American vocabulary. We talked some more, then I payed the bill and laid down the tip and I was on my way.
