Hey Metal:

We "Yanks" across the "Pond" have this thing that those of us above the poverty line judge each other by how frequently we insist that British humor (oops, I mean "humour") is the pinnacle of human evolution.

Do you guys have a comparable "grass is always greener" fixation on the US media? That would explain your Family Guy and South Park inclusions, I guess is what i mean.

Seriously, though, when I was in a London hostel in 2002 most of the other kids were Englishers from other parts of the country who were staying for more than just a few days and had developed routines. The way they all filed in at like 17:00 to watch The Simpsons in perfect silence reminded me of the "Two Minutes Hate" both in its antithesis and its parallel.
