cermiestar
they're jealous of canada!
Captain REX
I have no damn idea, but it's always some "Blame Canada" thing.
Are they helping us in the war against terrorism? If not, people who feel strongly about the war might be "Blaming Canada."
What do the Brits think of Yanks, Mike?
michaelmyers
personally i love americans. i fink they rock. but im not too keen on all them lot keepin guns. i would hate to go school there......scary
cermiestar
tony blair is george bush's lap dop
Phoenix
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!!!
Phoenix
I think the reason I don't like america is because its too big... I like my little island!
cermiestar
i think blackadder should definitly win it! it's brilliant! i also love the office, did anyone watch that over chirimbo?
michaelmyers
i agree totally. if tony took his head out of bushes arse and see wat he has done then.....who knows......
Phoenix
no, I didn't, I never had time to watch the series, so i assumed I wouldn't get it if I just watched the chrimbo special
Phoenix
I just don't unbderstand how Blair can even THINK of getting Britain involved, when none of us want it!
michaelmyers
i watched the office. how funny was that music video by david brent! HAAAAA!
oh yea, cannada rock!
Captain REX
There's a city where everyone has to own a gun to live there. Somewhere in Arizona I think. There is no crime, since if someone did something stupid with a gun, everyone else would just hold them at gunpoint until the cops came. Dunno, don't think that would work very well...
Not all of us own guns though.
yerssot
because he wantssss it
he obeys his master ... the lord of the rings... GWB
cermiestar
maybe he'll wake up and smell the lack of weapons of mass destruction?
Phoenix
well, I'm a drama student, and we've got in trouble before for taking the piss out of Bliar and Bushy in our satirical sketches!
cermiestar
oh the music vid was fantastic!
michaelmyers

Personally I love British people, and have met some very great ones here
Phoenix

silver_tears
BRITISH HUG

It's British!! ... and therefore a bit crappy... but very well written!
yerssot
well, if it's you who gives them, it can't be crappy, phoe
cermiestar

ihate the way we are protrayed in movies - "no no, don't hug me, i am british and therefore only show affection for dogs and horses" how sucky
Phoenix

julibug
Oh, I've stumbled into another British thread! Yea! You guys really are lucky. You have Alan Rickman, the Rayment twins, Hugh Grant. Ahhh!
silver_tears
*fiddles with big red fake clown nose*
mechmoggy
I can't understand what happens to my accent around none-Brits, I turn into a stereotypical toff for no apparent reason. Honest, I sound like a Hugh Grant character.
All very strange, especially as I'm from B'ham, hardly a place for properly spoken English.
yerssot
oh cheer up ol'chap
let's all discuss this accent-thing with a nice cup o'tea
mechmoggy
I'll have the tea, but I'll slap you if you continue to talk like that.
yerssot
oh dear! I said to much!
*takes umbrella and bowler hat*
I bid thee a farewell, ... ol' chump
silver_tears
pip pip cheerio
Captain REX
Tally-ho! How are you old bean?
silver_tears
smashing good mate and how be you this jolly good day?
Shoukan
I personally like British people......I am curious on how people from London are able to get around---I mean I saw a map of London and talk about confusing
Thanks United Kingdom for putting up with us Yanks (Americans)
Phoenix
Our pleasure, old boy...
yerssot
just be sure to take the underground when you're in the city, it's much easier
Sugar Kane
What a spiffing thread! All in dedication to us Brits, jolly good show, old sport. What marvellous hospitality!
I'm from the south of England, so I do sound a bit posh, all though I'm not really posh at all...
BarmyBrummie
Us, brummies (from birmingham) always get slagged off for our accents. It's not our fault we don't talk posh!!!
BunnyWolf
I'm British... Living in Yorkshire but I got a London accent for some reason... Some of my friends are Londoners so maybe it's them rubbing off on me
Not that I mind of course
ash007
yeah bit i also love the U.S its a very nice place but i found recently that i kind of fdon't feel safe in the U.S but apart form that you guys over the pond are fantastic you brought great hollywood films and i love programs like Friends and Stargate and Startrek
. Plus without you yanks we wouldn't have Starwars which means this site wouldn't exist
feanor
and they say you people have a dry sense of humour
BarmyBrummie
DRY???? British comedy rules ALL!!!!
ash007
i really actually don't know what it means when someone keeps on saying we have a dry sence of humer please explain
shaber
Does anyone know that London is a total wasteland? I ought to know. I've lived there most of my life.
yerssot
I'm mostly in the center of it, you know ... tourist stuff, not the outskirts
shaber
Did anyone know that the "comprehensive" education system is one of the worst in all the western world? I ought to know. I am one of those who has been to BOTH comprehensives AND a Grammar school (the old type of school - they were everywhere before the Socialists appeared)
feanor
coming from america myself. i couldn't begin to explain it. the closest thing i could say is that it's not vulgar or silly antics in the american sense. more like..."waitaminute, let me think...ah yes! now i get" haha...that is funny. jim carey vs. monty python...? mebbe i shouldn't have said dry. no offense
shaber
Dry humour means detached and unimpassioned humour. Not introspective humour. More tending towards irony.
shaber
I like Jim Carrey. Especially Ace Ventura and Dumb and Dumber
feanor
oh w/o a doubt Jim Carrey is byond funny...but then monty python skits make my eyes water from laughing so hard.
julibug
Ahhh, Hugh Grant! Mmmm!
Phoenix
Hmm, dry humor...? Isn't that what people call Brit humour when it is too subtle for them to understand...?
yerssot
I like that
BarmyBrummie
HEY, THE OFFICE WON 2 GOLDEN GLOBES!!!!!
burlyman
there is a british sitcom made for americans with the stars of The League of Gentlemen, the two guys from Black Books (
Bill Bailey ) and two other people... thats all I know..
BarmyBrummie
BILL BAILEY!!!!! I love that guy
Baylin
Bill Bailey ROCKS
ash007
Raz is BRITISH
and he rules this messageboard
silver_tears

Ushgarak
Uhph! We have a severe case of Bill Bailey ignorance!
(runs off to help silver_tears)
silver_tears
I dont like being called ignorant
yerssot
retarded than?
tptmanno1
Uhh...I'm with Silver_tears on this one!
Who the hell is Bill Baily?
Anyway, I'm Sure Jon Steward is way funnier.
silver_tears
that would be you
yerssot
wow, missy can do comparatives, that's WAY over your head you know
yerssot
apperently you didn't got the message
silver_tears
I was being sarcastic
yerssot
don't try to be too smart for your own good
silver_tears
I'm brilliant and you know it
yerssot
low standards in canaduh apperently
silver_tears
well they let you into uni at Belgium so they can't be as low as those
yerssot
depends, if they let you in, they are MUCH lower
silver_tears
oh thats clever just copying me
get a writer yerss
yerssot
well, I do have to keep the level in here rather low, cause otherwise you won't follow again
silver_tears
And yet somehow you're the one who manages to fail exams
yerssot
yeah, cause I'm at uni and you're in kindergarden
silver_tears
and somehow I still manage to use a computer
