Coming up for two months now.
Is it working out? Are you fatigued?
Is wrangling former FDPrs harder than wrangling giraffes?
Enquiring minds want to know. (A knowing US cultural reference from a boring Brit)

“Downton Abbey?!?!

A direct quote from the Chief Giraffe Wrangler!
I pay attention.

Doing ok, trying to keep up with all posts and also a full time job and a family isn’t always easy, that’s why I have good staff members in place to help out.
Otherwise, running this free site is pretty easy and fairly pressure free. I think we sorted out those who came here to make trouble and everyone else seems to be enjoying themselves for the most part.
To clarify, I don’t ACTUALLY find British PEOPLE boring, just British TV shows. The quoted text was pretty much said for Leftee’s benefit since he likes to point out how I hate British TV lol.

"I don’t ACTUALLY find British PEOPLE boring, just British TV shows."
What? You've never seen Midsomer Murders?
Me--I dislike TV. But there have been a few really good British series on Netflix that I've watched and they were quite good: great writing, beautiful production, and superb acting. I came *this close* to buying a TV because of this.

We’re watching Midsomer Murders now. We recently finished 7 seasons of Father Brown. We liked that a lot.
At MT2 every thread is a Brit TV thread.

Problem with British tv...the dont speak english right!! I’m from New York, NOBODY speaks it right outside NY. My wife and I were in Rochester, I walked up to the counter in some fast food squat and gobble, guy walks to the counter and a stream of sounds come out of his mouth. I cannot make out 1 single word. I say what? He looks at me like I am an idiot and VERY slowly says "welcome to (insert food chain name here), may I take your order? No joke. |

The difference between Rochester and NYC is roughly equivalent to the Earth and the moon.
