Well I'm happy, and apologetic at the same time, that I'm just not into you Brits. I find you comical, as a people not as individuals, and some of your cultural quirks are interesting. I found the OP humorous and wondered for a brief second if that would have been like the Victorian Era in the USA, but it didn't survive my attention span.
Maybe I'd be more interested in the British people if they used the correct words and proper pronunciation. ;-)
- tlarkworthy 14y agoI'll look for ways we can improve as a people, with haste.
- trebor 14y agoHmm, looks like the tongue-in-cheek was missed by a few people. I wasn't nearly serious enough for a reaction like that.
- alan_cx 14y agoMaybe that reply was simply toooooooo sarcastic for you (and many many others) to detect? One thing I have learned about forums etc on the net is that humour written down can be so very badly misunderstood. Particularly dry, witty, sarcastic humour. I used to fall in to all sorts of trouble when I thought I was being oh so funny. I now try to be very careful when I want to be funny. Dunno if this will mean much to you, but have you ever seen the UK comedy Blackadder? If you have, imagine it written down. It just reads as plain rude. But with Rowan Atkinson performing the lines, it becomes funny. If you haven't seen it, and like oldish Brit comedy, see it. Im sure there must be US shows that work like that too. I suppose reading a script of "Louie" might well seem very unfunny? Perhaps? I shall now posh mumble and apologise a lot, and go!!!
- tlarkworthy 14y agoI didn't down vote you. Congrats to alan_cx for correctly detecting dry British humour in the wild.
