The Brits strange?!!! Are you kidding? The strangest thing about your humor is how you spell it!! When are you people going to learn how to spell? You'd think after a thousand years or so you'd get it right. Now your food, that's a different story. Very strange. Someone smarter than me once said "The English and the Americans are two countries divided only by a common language" or something like that. Cheerio (that's a breakfast cereal here).

No, I think that most Americans love the British Sense of Humour. British comedys do very well here.

It can be very sarcastic, very cruel.Some people take it very hard
and cant understand that it is done in fun, of course some people
are deadly serious with there jokes and really mean what they say,sometimes its youre so called friends that is making a jeer of you which makes it all the more worse. This sarcastic attitude
does not go down well with Foreign people and they can get very upset even violent. They have to get to know you well until theyknow the sense of humour.

No, but I do think all British people think that American humour is absolutely c***, and they are absolutely right. It is all showtime in America and absolutely no spontanity!
I think the travelled people in America really appreciate the fresh- and crispness of British humour and the rest do not appreciate it anymore than they appreciate knowing even where certain countries are in the world!
I have been to America a few times and worked there, found that people are much more hemmed in over there!
Good luck!

I know it. Some like it. Some from the UK have no sense of humour too. And that's 100% partial fact.

No we think you have a funny sense of humor, I don't know what I would do without the old monty python shows and the office, well I do but my life wouldn't be the same without them. "There's a penguin on the television set" and ARE YOU KIDDING!!! we love Borat its like the #1 movie in America right now, it's so funny, I love movies that are so stupid it's funny. You shoudn't say what you think we are like when you don't actually know it for a fact.

All of my bruvvers live in the u.k. and I can tell you they are strange, they smell strange, they speak strange, they look strange, and they like a little strange on Saturday after the Bull & Bollocks closes down.
However:
I don't know why Americans think Benny Hill is hilarious.

We are a Nation of eccentrics and of eccentricity's
Odd humour odd people oddly spoken our dress can be odd
our love of some one or something that's not the norm
is well known.A people that can laugh at our selves as
well as others.
That is odd

its alittle different. we are too censored over here and cant do the pranks you guys pull. but i loved borat and ali g. hence the name. so id have to say its strange but in a good way
Hey PSSSTHOK your a f ucking idiot. Borat is the best selling comedy in theaters if not movie per theatre. Also we have the Ali G show here so we know where it comes from you ignorant f uck!
p.s. the best joke is that Tony Blair is our puppet. And dumbya is the puppet master

i am an american, and i love the british sense of humor...one of my favorite comics right now is eddie izzard....i think the trouble starts in the traslation...we dont alsways understand your slanf words, so we are not in on the joke...our comedy also tends to be a little more in your face than the british comedy.
