My words were "...shouldn't be one" not "should be only one".
But I was going by the article you linked at io9 which, compared to what you just linked in your reply, is a little confusing. From that article:
"When Lucasfilm was purchased by Disney, the decision was made that anything that advances the Star Wars story would become part of the same singular canon."

That seafood loaf may not *look* appealing, but I'll bet it's delicious. I'd definitely give it a go. ;-)

"Then Disney announced that the "expanded universe" of novels, games, and fan fiction up to that point were not to be regarded as canon..."
I think you snuck in a "not" there, where there shouldn't be one. ;-)

Trains in the USA may suck relative to what they used to be and compared to other countries... but there is much to like about them. Yes, they are usually slower than flying — a great deal slower, for longer journeys — but they can be cheaper, depending on when you purchase your tickets. However, the biggest thing to recommend them is the freedom. Unlike most airlines, you get a lot more room in the seats, and you can walk around freely, sit in the common areas, go to the snack bar, and if you spend the extra dough, even have a sleeper cabin of your own. Until airlines find a way to bring back that freedom that *they* once had, trains will always be a more relaxing way to travel than flying.

That's true (and don't get me started on "NEW-kyoo-ler"), but I think at some point you risk becoming a bit twee and precious if you pronounce everything exactly as the natives do. I'll bet it's common for residents in many countries to pronounce other countries differently than that other country's natives do. For example, most people in the US don't pronounce our southern neighbor "MEH-hee-koh".

You wrote: "it's actually pronounced ee-KAY-uh." That's not the pronunciation I heard in that Vine video. Sounds more like "ee-KEE-uh".
But glad to know that they say "eye-KEE-uh" is okay with them, as well. I'm so set in my ways, I doubt I could ever start saying it another way now. ;-)

In answer to your question about what Norse gods order at a diner, being of Norwegian roots myself, I'd say it'd likely be any food that's white, bland, and served with copious amounts of butter.

Well, I'd imagine the burps taste a lot worse, for one thing.

Once all retailers in America are able to use the chip reader, and once (or, "if") it starts going a lot faster, then no worries. Until then, it's just an annoyance for everyone involved, cashiers included.
