HAHA, classic british humor. When I think of that I think of two fine gentlemen in a verbal spat that end their sentences with "Bully!"

This one always cracks me up:

Wow, hehe some of you guys seem a bit up tight; perhaps a would help?

Let's see. What sorta sappy sentimental slogan is enscribed on that funky structure straddling the Canuk border in this besodden state of mine? Hmmm. Children of a Common Mother. A DNA test is pending but it appears Britain is our mum. At least as long as the child support payments hold out. Be nice to Britain. Be nice to your mum.

Seriously, though, my 1812 post was in jest.

As others have said though this is a light hearted thread, just a bit of banter.

Deal! War it is, I have a musket!

My Great(x5) grand pappy fought you guys at Breeds (Bunker) Hill. First Euro-subsim meeting...Cancelled! As a protest to your "Queen" (not Freddy) I propose we dump all Mr Bean DVDs in the Bay.

...wait, did you say you were going to disband Congress AND burn down the White House? Okay you can do that. As I only have 1/2 cup of gun powder left, I'm willing to concede the states of Kali-for-nia, Massachusetts, and Arkansas. But you can keep your health care system. We already have a football thread, and we don't need another.

5. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers, or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that you're not adult enough to be independent. Guns should only be handled by adults. If you're not adult enough to sort things out without suing someone or speaking to a therapist then you're not grown up enough to handle a gun.

6. Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more dangerous than a vegetable peeler. A permit will be required if you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public.

Very well indeed. :rotfl:

That just means you pronounce and spell it incorrectly.

You should hear how I pronounce it

Chances are, he'll give them a lot more credit than you're thick skull can give out."

You owe me a new irony meter...

I'm sorry, I wasn't aware that you're a perfectionist at everything you do.

People make mistakes.

EDIT:

Mistake corrected. By the way:
