But not to worry, our corporations and research scientists are developing alternative humor resources, like passing wind, and bio-parodies. Hopefully, one day soon, we will no longer be dependent on importing Great Britian jokes like yourself, and we will be humor independent as a nation. I believe Barack Obama has said that if we all would just inflate our whoopee cushions, that we could reduce our GB joke imports by 3-5 percent.
I hope and pray he can make this policy a reality. |

American vs. British Humor...
Round 1:
The sad thing about sexually repressed, Puritan America, is that we arrest and throw our greatest comedic talents in jail...
...just for whacking off in public, and having a large cache of kiddie porn in their home.
No wonder we are now forced to watch Bean movies and Monty Python re-runs.
Damn fascists!
Edit to add: Note the movie poster warning:

Umm wasn't Pee-Wee Herman, arrested for diddling little boys?
OK I exaggerate,he's only been arrested twice:Once for masturbating in public,at a porno theatre,(1991) and once for possession of child pornography, (2002)
Funny? Well no,I never though he was, at all. His arrests means he's unfunny AND slimy. I always ways thought there was something faintly sinister about the character, but didn't know why. |

Did you read the circumstances behind what was considered "child pornography"? Hell, I probably have worse child pornography. I have (presently at my mom's house in Texas) a DVD copy of In the Realm of the Senses, purchased at Media Play (a large American video store/music store chain), and there's a scene in there where the main character grabs a little boy's wee-wee.
A lot of these raids have as their public face a response to child abuse and child predators, but in fact they reduce civil liberties across the board as they give governments increased license to spy on what movies people are watching and so on. Also, to show they're putting their foot down, law enforcement agencies arrest people for possessing materials that had nothing at all to do with child abuse, and this is what seems to have happened in that 2002 case of Paul Reubens.
The first case was equally egregious though. Who is harmed when somebody jerks off in a jerk-off booth at an adult video store? The only reason anyone would go in there is to masturbate, and they do it with full knowledge that every previous occupant also masturbated in there. If you don't like it, don't go into a jerk off booth; it's really that simple. Fuck. |

Oh fuck,I did it AGAIN! --I forgot the smiley. Well fan mah brow , slap mah face and call me Doris.
OF course it's all true! it was on Wikipedia! Sakes!
To answer your question :Yes. I was simply following the basic rule of journalism; "Never allow the facts get in the way of a good story"
I STILL think there's something sinister about the little creep.  |
