This last post just tells me how uninformed you are about matters outside your own boarders. Keep them coming, your just proving my point more and more with each post.

As do yours! With your level of self importance, someone might end up building a statue to you! Not here mind you, but there has to be gulible enough people in some crappy town that would think everything you say is gold!
I'd given some thought to movin' off the edge -- not an ideal location -- thinkin' a place in the middle.

I have no idea where you're getting this self importance thing, perhaps you should enlighten me as to how you've come to this conclusion.
And while your at it, perhaps you should also tell the tale as how you have come to the conclusion that I have no idea what goes on outside my boarders.
Inquiring minds want to know.

Brilliant bit of posting, SigmaNunki!!!
MacBaker - seems you have ruined a nice fluffy comedy post and SEEM to be trying to make it a flame-war.
You must be a tad too tetchy after the holidays, I suppose.
Lighten up! The New Year is coming!!!

Thanks
although I do regret having been a part of taking this thread off topic for a bit.But to return to something similar to the thread topic, has anyone here seen Fawlty Towers?
I've just snaged it and know that its humour is more adult than Monty Python. Is it along the lines of this article? Just wondering what to expect (damn work taking up all my time...).

Some people aren't happy unless everyone else is miserable. This is especially true at the holidays.
The secret is to NOT look for insult unless it is clear that insult is being given. If insult is actually being given, answer with unparalleled kindness.

Hey hey hey guys, come on now.
This is NOT!!!!!!! meant to be serious
There's no need to dissect the whole thing. Its just a piece of humour. I know that I have seen similar things based on the UK and LAUGHED! Cause its all meant with the best of intentions and I know for a FACT that the person who wrote that (I saw where it originated from) didn't have insults in mind. Please don't turn humour into friction between us, please!! Humour the poor little English teen here a min!
With that said, laugh or don't laugh, but at least appreciate its not meant seriously!

I completely agree that this isnt supposed to be serious.
I, also, would like to mention, that my previous post in this thread was SERIOUS.
For my 13 birthday, my former evil step-mother gave me a a copy of a video called "How to annoy people" whose main writer was John Cleese. I wish I still had it, it was VERY instructive!
I think he is a creative and ingenious writer, and I think we should all listen to what he says. If for nothing more than to hear laughter in a world filled with not enough of it.
They didnt call it the dark ages because it was dark.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
It was meant to be funny! Not offensive and rude, just funny. Learn to take a joke. Please. Not every comment is cause for offense and threats of violence. Everyone should be able to laugh at themselves. Not being able to tends to indicate some serious insecurities and just might drive you crazy. Here's the thing: no person or country is perfect; everyone has flaws. So acting like the USA (or anywhere else) is above reproach is silly. Again, learn to take a joke.
Also, how long are we going to use WWII as an argument? It's over. Winning a war half a century ago does not give us the right to be jackasses now.
Just a small note, I think it's "How to Irritate People" rather than "annoy"..... might make it easier to find if anyone is looking for it (I managed to find a couple copies on eBay for not to much)
Huitzil, you beat me to it about the tights. Thank you Thank you Thank you for saying it.
