Well if you re-elect George W. Bush in November...


He wasn't elected in the first place!

I actually typed "I know he wasn't elected" underneath but I deleted it cos it interfered with the Funny Joke.

I know this board generally ain't big fans of George W. but the fact that Americans voted in enough numbers for him to even get CLOSE ENOUGH to rig the last bit is a constant source of gob-smacked wonder to us Old Europeans.

I assume that you intended to say: "I vote British simply because we speak properly."


hehe i vote british too because we have a sense of irony!

I would have given you the benefit of the doubt if your other posts in this thread hadn't displayed equally dire English language skills. The Queen would be ashamed!

By the way, I vote Mexican.

My short stay in London introduced me to some of the most disgusting food I have ever seen.

Some good record shops, though.

Listen, just put the fucking fluoride in your water and we'll quit making fun of your teeth, okay?

I'm going to have to side with America on this one, but just barely. Our food, weather, and sense of humo[u]r are superior to England's. If this were almost any other country up against America, we would easily lose...but not in this case.

Hey, we do! And we have street lighting and running electricity. (with proper sturdy plugs at a voltage that doesn't cause fires as well)

Probably my favourite historical figure is Samuel Johnson. His favourite pub was called The Old Cheshire Cheese, and it stills stands about 200 yards from where I'm sitting. It's now a magnet for American tourists - it's on every walking tour, in every guidebook. His most famous quote about the colonies was: (the American people) "are a race of convicts, and ought to be thankful for anything we allow them short of hanging."

well i can only assume you are one of those people who enjoy being wildly wrong...

though it might be a bit complicated/ difficult to understand for you guys, but rest assured we make the best comedy shows... i had the misfortune to witness 'the chapelle show' when i was in canada last month... what a pile of shit... though you guys did invent the simpsons - full credit for that. but thats about it.. and thats probably cos the production is done in the far east, i guess they put the funny bits in over there

No. McDonald's would have been several steps up from the mushy, over-cooked, prison-style garbage i surveyed. I did the whole fish 'n chips thing, but it was too greasy and pretty unremarkable for a national fare.

Really? It was my understanding that only a small percentage of water in England was fluoridated, the resistance to its widespread introduction being based on a belief in flimsy evidence for bone deterioration...or something. Huh.

It's true. We're thugs, but at least we're thugs that know how to have FUN.

Oh yeah, i must have forgotten about the comedy magic of a show like Absolutely Fabulous... Please. Wake me up when it's over. I'm not gonna argue with Monty Python or even Mr. Bean, but, come on...

...and another thing: Powdered Wigs
Are you kidding me?
