Is Friends the Most Pathetic Comedy of Its Ilk?

[TwoTongues]

Is this some kind of pagan british spell you're tryin to fry my head with here? Do me a favor and don't contradict me dammit, especially when I'm tryin to squeeze in an excellent youtube clip without getting OT'd to temp... For this one topic, you can pretend to be british just to prove my point, it shouldn't be such a hardship, take it like a man. I'll trade you one "you fascist pinko-commie bastard" or a "you hairy-backed kiwi sheepshagger" for it in a later thread, deal?

I'm outraged! And disgusted! by the level of ignorance, jingoistic nationalism and sheer bigotry in this thread. What are you lot? Bloody primary school kids? Haven't you EVER learned any PROPER insults?
I swear, the embarrassment of being (supposedly) insulted by boody Yanks! Its akin to being beaten up by a six-year-old.

... you don't see American singers singing with a silly english or scottish accent do you?

Oh yeah? Where do you think Katy Perry got her glottal stops?

My response is only appropriate in the mens forum. Or in Maoman's Japanese soft porn forum.

Sure, it had been done before, and in an accent with which you damn limeys are more familiar with,

Your only saving grace in this matter is that, like most other things, the original is superior.

Accent my tuckus, with the largest native English speaking population in the world (as India clearly doesn't fit the category), it's you inbred islander backwood swampland hicks who've got the accent, you don't see American singers singing with a silly english or scottish accent do you? and what accent do ALL movie bad guys have, even when they're Romans and Greeks!

And let's NOT forget who saved your ass in WW2!!!!!

Oh you English are SO superior aren't you...

QED

...and the original might be superior, but we wouldn't know, because we can't understand a damn word of yer jibber jabber

AWESOME POST !

Hey! Give us some credit, why don't you? Without a doubt, ye are a tongue that would clip clouts, yet that don't mean the rest of us are doon the Dee on a digestive!
Dinnae be doolally, or we might just have to posit some thoughts about ye lowlander weegie bampot sisters. Y'ken?

Not that there aren't even less funny and even more pathetic comedies, but Friends was so huge for so long and was such crap - just watched for the first time in years a piece of an episode and it's just not funny, and it wasn't funny 10 years ago either. Is it just twenty-somethings watching other semi-attractive twenty-somethings act semi-joking and living together?

But that Chandler Bing! He's a card and no mistake.

Never got to see it often, but, I always enjoyed Third Rock from the Sun when I was at meetings or visiting family in the States.
