Now why does this not surprise me?

[His Divine Shadow]

Bah, I missed all the fun.

 

[BigJim]

Johnny-come-lately wanker. 🙄 😀 😛

Remember, some Americans think...

London was a Roman city buried by Mount Vesuvius
Vegas is the biggest desert in the world, and think Sahara is in Vegas
The Grand Canyon was caused by a "bouncing meteor"
The Berlin Wall is in China OR the Great Wall of China is in Berlin
ALL British people talk posh and are friends with the Queen

Sorry, too much Leno on digital TV...

 

[His Divine Shadow]

LOL, it's true. Thank god I'm not one of them.

 

[BigJim]

The most frightening thing is, that most Brits think all Americans are psychotic assholes defined by the c) answers in my quiz thread.

 

[His Divine Shadow]

Send 'em to the south and see the truth.😀 And I can say that because, while I was born in New England, I lived for many years in the 'ol south.

 

[BigJim]

Nothing I like better than referring to sothrons as "yanks". Heh heh.....

 

[His Divine Shadow]

LOL😀

 

[BigJim]

Shit-stirring bugger, aren't I? 😀 Of course I can hide behind the ignorance of a typical British tourist, wheras as a former areenactor of the ACW, I know just how much it pisses off a southerner to be called a yank.😉

 

[His Divine Shadow]

You are THE expert at pissing people off, that is for sure.

 

[BigJim]

I'm quite proud of it because it's a cultivated talent, not a natural feature of my personality as it is with most Americans. 😀

 

[His Divine Shadow]

Sad....so sad.....teach me now.

 

[BigJim]

You don't need teaching wanker, you have a method all of your own. 😀

 

[His Divine Shadow]

Ah, but I like to be diverse in my annoyances, using a variety of methods.😀

 

[BigJim]

Then just observe and copy. 😀

 

[His Divine Shadow]

I've tried, and to some extent, succeeded. I can now use wonderful words like wanker, tosser, bugger, and smegging with ease.😀

 

[red indian]

Ah very good indeed divine one!!.....

....I take it your are a diciple of "Red Dwarf" with your reference to the word "smeg"? ...one of the great British institutions, good old "Red Dwarf".....I know you colonial chappies are very good at all kinds of things but, you can not touch the old mother land when it comes to comedy TV.

 

[His Divine Shadow]

Sorry to say it's all from Jim.😀 But, I'll add that to my list.😀

 

[BigJim]

Red Dwarf: Sitcom about a scouse bloke called Dave Lister who is marooned in deep space with the android equivalent of Norman Bates who happens to have a head shaped like a novelty condom, a computer suffering increasingly from silicone senility, a humanoid who evolved from the ship's cat and a hologram of his dead bunkmate, who is a man described by Lister as a "lying weasilly scumbucket, with all the social graces of a pubic louse". Rimmer's self-description is "tosspot by royal appointment".


Funnier than seeing someone back on to their neighbour's exhaust pipe.

 

[red indian]

My work.....

.....is done on this thread I think!

 

[His Divine Shadow]

LOL, I must buy that! Red, your work is indeed done.😀

 

[red indian]

I note......

.......the veritable king of comedy has just shown up!!! good old Cav88...you are all in for a right giggle!!!

 

[BigJim]

Ah yes, Cav88. The dude for whom humour is a rarer guest than a prostitute for the Pope.

 

[His Divine Shadow]

Where, where!?😀 LOL, you guys are harsh.😀
