I would have thought that it was an English stereotype not British. Us Scots realise that we are too shit at everything to care what everyone in the world thinks. Cunt
When national stereotypes come into contact with the foreign and unusual, that's when you get the best potential for comedy. At a railway museum once, I saw one of those metal signs that they used to have in railway carriages informing patrons that "This carriage is fitted with the new Edison Electric Light. To operate, simply depress switch on wall. Do not attempt to light with match."
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
"Well hello alien creature, we come in peagaeragahsefaegasgahghaghasgahg" They broadcasted on Xbox Live, was pretty awesome. Can't wait for the updates.
"In our youth, we lacked the maturity, the decency to create gods better than ourselves so that we might have something to aspire to.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!
Well, it didn't take long:
Quote:How comforting to know that $2.5 billion of our tax dollars are being wasted (sorry, “invested”) to find evidence of life of Mars. The critical clues will be traces of water. And we all know what that means. Just get yourself some carbon (and a few other things) and JUST ADD WATER, and voila, LIFE! http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/evolu...verse.html Let's hope there's intelligent life on Mars, 'cos like the man says there's bugger-all down here on Earth.

How does a priest put in a lightbulb?
They don't; they prefer you didn't see what they're doing.
