That doesn't look like a French Canadian name.

Yes, you see that's an American term for us. It would just sound odd if anyone else other than a Yank were to use that. The French call us 'Roast Beefs'. The Scottish call us - well they just call us anything that involves swearing. The Aussies - Poms... It seems that every country has a derogatory term for the English. This is how much we are loved by the others around the world. Makes you proud. :~

The saffers also use limey and pommie, as well as 'rooinek', a whole different meaning of redneck.

What's a 2.1 Master's Degree? (surprisingly, google has yielded no relevant information)

The standard classification for University degrees in the UK is as follows: 1 - Damien Hurst 2.1 - Shania Twain 2.2 - Desmond Tutu 3 - Thora Hurd(also known as a 'Gentleman's Degree')
Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.(Winston Churchill)

It's the minor upgrade to a 2.0 Master's ... but still has some bugs that will be fixed in the 3.0 release. :-D

Just chickened with OU, they do first, upper and lower second, and third. So I'm guessing third and pass are the same on an honours course.
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done.
No you get third then pass.

Oh ok. It's just weird having anyone else other than the drunken layabout convicts call us pomms.

So, a 2.1 would be equal to say a "B"?

Since a "B" is a grade you'd get in an "A" level or below: no. Was that a reference to some other degree-level grading system? If so, which one?
