This is a spoof: -- if you want, I'd like to be made Friar twice in one day ;-)
If you've seen Mystery Men, please imagine this post being read by "The Blue Rajah".
I say old chap. There you go again, colonials having a pop at good old Brittania. Bad show, bad show I say, it's not cricket.
If there weren't ladies present I'd teach you to respect the British;
- UK: Marquis of Queensbury Rules, Monty Python, Tea, Tennis, Shakespeare and Cricket.
-
Yank: Winblows, Roseanne, "Muppet Babies", "Who's the Boss" AND MacDonalds.
Please don't liken us to our cousins from the North: they don't wash, can't afford a colour license for the sky (it's always grey) and they use Hovis loaves as currency.
We'll hand over Mr Bean when you sign a contract out-lawing further Police Academy Movies or spin-off series.
Austin Powers was Mike Myers ripping off a Brit: Peter Sellers (Go on I defy you!).I rest my case milud, I thengyou.

For the record, because I love to nit-pick details:
- Austin Powers was invented by Mike Myers, who is not
only Canadian, he happens to be from my home town: Toronto (okay, technically he's from Scarbourgh and I'm from North
York; but it's still Toronto)
- Tea came from China

As I say this is a spoof, no seriousness, and in that spirit: -
How dreadful for you: Canadian you say... I hear that's terminal.
- You're indeed quite right Tea came from outside the British Empire: we were first to add milk to it!
I am going home now, pip pip old boy and all that.... now where did I put that Pith helmet, did you take the Pith?

Samuel Johnson On America...
"To a man of mere animal life, you can urge no argument against going to America, ... But a man of any intellectual enjoyment will not easily go and immerse himself and his posterity for ages in barbarism."
"I am willing to love all mankind, except an American"
"Sir, they are a race of convicts, and ought to be thankful for anything we allow them short of hanging."
The NRA, The Christian Right, LAPD, State Executions, pollution... Nah I'll stay in England thanks. Though I have to admit two of my favourite people are American, (I think) Michael Moore and Gary Trudeau The rest of you are crazy :-) BTW I'd swap those two for Monty Python any day | [reply] |
