PS. Some of you uptight UK'rs need to see the joke in this. Please don't turn it into something serious. Figured I'd post this because I know some of you have no idea what funny is.

a) LOL

b) Not sure how to respond to this. Oviously sarcastic but the fact that there is a context for understanding the sarcasm is a sad commentary on the U.S.

c) The comments on Britain seem sarcastic as well but once again there is a context for them.

d) A funny, but insulting, look at both nations.

Not a bad bit of self referential sarcastic humour there.

:rotfl:

I don't see why you have to worry about anyone missing the joke. It's kind of obvious.

It's stupid.

It's funny.

It's funny because it's stupid.

What's not to love? "Stealing our language." "Super-Jesus."

Reminds me of Nick Searcy's character in Head Of State: "God bless America...and no place else!"
