This was sent to me by Feejer222, in England in response to him seeing People Of Walmart. The UK equivalent are known as Dobbers. Sit back and enjoy seven minutes of his observations during a night at the pub.

Caution: don't play it if your boss or young children are listening.

Not to worry. 90% of it is relatively unintelligible, or should I say, typically British... :p :huh:

There are three things the British should never attempt: 1) Cooking, please leave it to the French. 2) Mechanical Engineering, please leave it to the Germans. 3) Comedy, please leave it to the Americans; or at the very least, hand it off to Canadians!

Fawlty Towers being the exception that proves the rule...

Aw, British humor is the best. You gotta get used to it though. When we moved to NZ our Kiwi (mostly ex-Brits, or pommie) friends would drag us along to their houses and play Goon Show records. They'd be screaming and we would just look at one another wondering what the hell they were saying. After a while, though... it was great.

Now then, if you want British humor, there is cricket!

Hey I thought he was good .. :unsure:

Don, I leave the comedy to the Irish - Frank Carson, Dave Allen

Apparently Tokyo has the best restaurants more michelin 3 stars than Paris. Article

Personally I have to agree on the French Cuisine, many lunchtimes sampling the plat du jour and a nice bottle of Burgundy, sat by the side of the crystal clear waters of Lac Leman. Hmmmm happy days.

Anyway, thanks for posting.

Hell is British chefs, German policemen, and French engineers.

Heaven is British policemen, German engineers, and French chefs.

...old wives tale...

Need subtitles. Couldn't make out 80 per cent of it.

 
He is pretty funny.I only catch about 2/3 of his slang but the rest is funny.
MadMike, I viewed this once again; and like you, I'm missing a third of it. Sounds just like our Fairlaner, after his 7th Southern Comfort and Coke at an FJR Rally Event!

Hahaha Priceless, enjoyed every minute of it, oh, and by the way, American comedy is like American Intelligence, an Oxymoron.

Have a nice day :yahoo:

But at least we know where to put commas in our sentences, and how to avoid run-on sentences.

:D ;)
In a way, Michael, I agree with him. The current "crop" of comedians leave much to be desired in the humor department while majoring in "foul" and "insulting". It could well be that they are simply products of their generation and thus their schooling which would be evidenced by a lowering of intelligible response or reaction in any situation.

I agree with you Mike. Then again, Lenny Bruce and George Carlin went from offensive to mainstream eventually. One postumously unfortunately. Todays comics may do the same. I had to defend the homies in some way. ;)

Clearly not, as I speak the Queens English, not some bastardized Colonial English.

England and America, two great nations, divided by a common language. :yahoo: :rolleyes:
