Oh I was wondering where half of my topic got sent to I suppose it wasn't really about the topic anymore lol..

Some people I know just say Americans simplify everything cause they're to lazy to pronounce the full word E.C.T.

Like, take the first Harry Potter book for example, They had to dumb down Philosophers to sorcerer because they either dunno what Philosopher means or they're to lazy to say it

Besides, Philosophers stone is already used (Fullmetal Alchemist) cough. Copyright *cough*.

"... I say! Whos vagina ISZ THAT?
... Who is your father? Your birth father, woman!"

Or when chasing bad guys:

"... I say! Slow down there ol bean!
... What on this green erth do you think you were doing? .. how much TEA have you had this morning, ol chap?"

I don't get jam nor jelly wrong, Jam tastes like crap so does Jelly. But at least I don't drink tea, Rupert! I prefer Red Bull over Tea ol chap!

Oh boy, you can tell you've never been to Scotland.

Really easy to tell difference between UK people and US people.

[Lazer]

yep. were better looking, way cooler, more diverse and.......deep down......we all secretly know that americans wish they were english.

and, as you can see from my post which you chose to ignore (as it refutes your argument), we dont all talk like fairies at all. i'd hazard a guess at less than 1% of our population talking like 'fairies' as you put it.

Yeah, british dentistry REALLY pwns American dentistry

Cooler?

Most actors and movies you defy as "cool" probably came from Hollywood, California. And California seems to be located in that place with the DUH-DUH-DUH DUMB AMERICANS LOZL.

Americans want to be English?

No thanks, we don't want to be silly, fairy nannies xD.

One hundred twenty-seven million Americans over the age of 20 are overweight

In contrast, in modern Western culture, the obese body shape is widely regarded as unattractive. Obese bodies are rarely positively represented in mainstream media. Many negative stereotypes are commonly associated with obese people, such as the belief that they are lazy, dirty, stupid, or even evil. Some point to gluttony, the second of the seven deadly sins, when referring to the this last stereotype. Obese children, teenagers and adults face a heavy social stigma. Obese children are frequently the targets of bullies and are often shunned by their peers. Obesity in adulthood can lead to a slower rate of career advancement. Most obese people have experienced negative thoughts about their body image, and many take drastic steps to try to change their shape.

Have you actually taken the chance to watch any American TV, American Comedy, hell even American female/male model pics?

American Comedy is funnier imho. I'll be frank; the only british comedy I've seen is Monty Python, and I couldn't understand it half-way. I prefer Dave Chapelle, Carlos Mencia or our own unique station, Comedy Central.

[Imperial]

on the subject of denistry, all of that "fine dentrisrty" and dead straight teeth is often a result, of getting rid of your own choppers and getting fake ones. Half the time they aren't real.

However I am neutral because I live in neither place.

[DarkKnight]

Yay! Our own topic!

Your entire arguement is void because of that, STFU and get educated you flithy American slob!

yes, you have some very, very, very fit models/actresses. i feel sorry for them though because they didn't choose to be american. poor things, they belong over here with us good looking ones.

americans dont get british humour. always gets said, but tis true. alot of american comedy is shit imo, people like Chris Rock etc *yawn*. when american actors/actresses come over here promoting their next movie or whatever and end up on talk shows i have often cringed for them as they try to be funny and, as an englishman, fail miserably. you see the host putting on a fake, forced laugh. *shudders*

lmao you base it on one thing? Thats like going into a country and seeing a person in a wheelchair and saying 'OMG they must all be in wheel chairs!'

Ive watched plenty of American comedies, they all fail save the Wayan Bros. who are the only funny people in America it seems...

Who's line is it anyway? = Instant win for UK.

Monty Python = Another instant win for the UK.

Friends = Instant kill switch activation for USA.

Topgear = for UK.

I find with most US shows, all the good idea's are used up in the first few shows, then they suck from there on in.
(With the exception of the shows of old, such as M*A*S*H and Hogans Hero's.)

[James]

lol @ Americanised English tbh.

lol @ fancy fairy accents of England.

MY ACCENT IS FAIRY-LIKE?!

[Bob]

Yes, evidently not.

You've never been to the USA for all I know.
Really easy to tell difference between UK people and US people.

Oh but I have been to America and no, I'm not gonna stereotype.

You talk about American comedy being funny, sure... some of it very well is. Scrubs for example. You say it's better than British comedy? Have you seen Red Dawrf, have you seen Fawlty Towers?

Go watch now.

[clyzm]

Yawn. I would expect all the british fairies to attack me, half of this forum are british fairies lol.

yes, you have some very, very, very fit models/actresses. i feel sorry for them though because they didn't choose to be american. poor things, they belong over here with us good looking ones.

If they didn't choose to be American, they'd move over to your country, and I see all of them are still here in Hollywood because they don't work as prostitutes in your country. You think that being American is actually "a race" rofl, comprised of ignorant, obese beings that don't look good and aren't funny. UK is the superior race now? I laugh at you @ your cockneys.

americans dont get british humour. always gets said, but tis true. alot of american comedy is shit imo, people like Chris Rock etc *yawn*. when american actors/actresses come over here promoting their next movie or whatever and end up on talk shows i have often cringed for them as they try to be funny and, as an englishman, fail miserably. you see the host putting on a fake, forced laugh. *shudders*

Brits don't get American Humor. Is Chris Rock the only thing you've ever heard? Haven't you heard of Dave Chappelle, Jamie Kennedy, Carlos Mencia, hell even your own English comedy, Hollow Men? Chris Rock IS shit, I agree, but it's not the "entire" American humor. Chris rock has an annoying voice, ol rupert ol chap!

Your entire arguement is void because of that, STFU and get educated you flithy American slob!

Tell me 4 American comedies you've seen.

btw: Whos line is it anyway from wikipedia:

Whose Line Is It Anyway? (sometimes abbreviated to Whose Line?), is an improvisational comedy show. It was originally a British radio program, but later moved to television, first as a series made for Britain's Channel 4, and subsequently as another version made for American television.

Ive watched plenty of American comedies, they all fail save the Wayan Bros. who are the only funny people in America it seems...

REALLY? Then name a few.

every body loves raymond is cool show , but king of the queens is also fun.1-1 Usa vs Uk.Offcentre was awesome , friends was dull compared to offcentre.2-1 Uk vs Usa.UK wins by 1 point in the section best comedy show.
... or is offcentre from usa aswell ...

UK - Has funny faries talking in a sarcastic sense.
-20 points.

US - Has funny skits, standup shows, hell we even have our own station for comedy, COMEDY CENTRAL!

Don't talk to US about comedy folks, we practically developed it here.

I find with most US shows, all the good idea's are used up in the first few shows, then they suck from there on in.
(With the exception of the shows of old, such as M*A*S*H and Hogans Hero's.)

Which shows do you actually watch now?

Oh but I have been to America and no, I'm not gonna stereotype.

Really? Where did you go, what did you see, who did you meet etc.

Isn't it funny that I have to ask everyone what shows they watch? They see one show from America and instantly label it as shit, rofl. I've spent more time watching Comedy Central than anyone of you here, and you guys rely on british comedy to BEAT american comedy?

I admit, some shows from UK are funny, like Red Dwarf, just watched it from YouTube and laughed my ass off rofl But don't go in here saying all US comedy is shit, it would be considered funny if you were being sarcastic, and it would be considered stupid if you wouldn't.

Everybody has a different taste in comedy, I prefer US comedy over UK comedy, Lazer here prefers UK comedy over US comedy simply because he is pro-UK and also because he thinks its funny because UK is where he came from, and he hasn't seen much US comedy as a US resident like me.

[Spiderbot01]

My Wife and kids, it's all relative, grounded for life, one on one, that 70's show, 2 guys, a girl and a pizza place, the fresh prince of bel air, even the simpsons ffs.. the only one out of those I find funny these days is the fresh prince.. granted the simpsons used to be funny but then it just got boring.

If nothing else American comedy can be funny but then it just tries the same jokes over and over and just gets boring, it's as simple as that.

[DarkKnight]

Short list of shows

US shows is exactly whats wrong with TV.

I say this, because it's true.

Now go watch Monty Python with a real dictionary and don't come back untill you get it.
