No there aren't, you all sound the same. Just like all black people wear bling and all Japanese people walk around in kimonos and stab themselves in the stomach when they miss a deadline at work...
Seriously, I just read those words and had a horrible flashback to a BBC (I think it was BBC) version of Othello in modern language. I saw a bit of it for a class once, and it might have worked, except they cast somebody with a horrible working-class Brit accent as Desdemona. When the time came for her to be smothered, I just couldn't help laughing at the squawking noises she made protesting her husband's charges. She sounded like an angry crow, cawing away like that. "It's NAWT TREAUUU!" ![]() And I just can't imagine any other kind of Brit accent saying something like "arse over ***s." Maybe she had one of those refined and dignified accents instead, in which case it'd be pretty funny anyway. |

American Family Asssociation seems way worse than these guys. They are already readying it's 3 million members to flood the FCC when CBS airs it's 9/11 documentary on 9/10/2006. Because CBS will be airing it unedited. |

PTC President L. Brent Bozell says, "It is utterly irresponsible and atrocious for NBC to air this vulgar language...when millions of children were in the viewing audience." Frankly, I'm not sure you could find millions of kids who were in the viewing audience. That implies that kids actually watched the Emmys. I think a more apt description mighy be the "asleep on the floor" audience, or maybe the "playing Halo on the other TV" audience.

...and you Brits take it to the extreme with this "Challenger 2 has the ability to brew tea for the crew from inside the tank. The tank contains a boiler for water which can be used to produce hot beverages and heat 'boil-in-the-bag' meals contained in ration packs. Every British tank since the Centurion has this ability to heat water. Most Soviet era automobiles had the same ability, only they weren't designed to have it. I've had British army tea from compo rations, made with a teabag the size of small pillow. Strong enough to make durable road surfaces. Still, we did get 'Tiffin' chocolat bars to go with it, which were unavailable in the shops at the time. Mmm.... Tiffin. |
