What the hell happened to white dogshit ... ?
The pavements of Britain were littered with the stuff 20 years ago ... Now you can't find a decent sample of white dogshit anywhere ... ?
Do others feel that our canine cousins have altered their dietary habits over the years, in turn leading to the demise of the once great white dogshit ... ?
yeah ... and Spangles.

I think in a way though, if we were not so self-depricating we wouldn't be who we are as Brits. Most of our humour is based on self-deprication and that is one of the reasons why the UK is deemed by many around the world to be the home of comedy

I think British humours been a little watered down of late. As if Brit comedians are trying too hard to appeal to the American audience.

I'd hardly say that those two I quoted are watered down. Gervais treads a very thin line sometimes. You look at his standup shows and there aren't many comedians who can make the Holocaust, Child Abuse and racism funny whose names don't start with "Bernard" and end in "Manning"

Suppose I just think that if the Americans love a certain comedian then that comedian must be shit. Pissed my self through Borat but never really got the Office or Extras - mildly funny though.
