[batmanownsyourass]

You're a Brit, you've always had crappy television. You should be used to it.

[Constance0Lirit]

brit's have good T.V....or they used too at least =P

[mummra4ever]

Yeah I agree but the new doctor who show can be decent sometimes though.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

Hustle and Spooks would like a word with you.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 Tell them to call Leo and Captain planet.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

Any? Hustle and Spooks were two superlatively good shows. A far cry from "You always had crappy television".

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 Except that British always had crappy shows. Even when they took a good American show they somehow made it crappy. As is the case for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles which was changed to Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles because Brits think ninjas are real.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

Rubbish. They're a place that produced television, good and bad, same as anywhere else.

Fawlty Towers, Red Dwarf, etc. Top notch productions, rightfully so.

And dubious censorship happens in America as in all places, don't get all high and mighty because the british are more open about it.

I'm Australia, FYI, if bias was suspected.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 There is a reason that no one except for British, yes, that includes you Aussies too because you are British, get over it, remembers British cartoons or TV shows. But everyone in the world with access to a TV and/or computer can name an American show they've seen as a child.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

Anyway, you still haven't responded to my claim about Hustle and Spooks. They're both excellent shows, British produced.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 Excellent if you're British maybe, I've never heard of them. I was too busy watching quality American shows like TMNT or Biker Mice From Mars. How about a little Batman/Superman action? Also American. Hell, the only British shows I know of are those stupid shows that come on Adult Swim. And that's only three, bet you could know a lot more American shows. Wonder why that is. Hmmmm.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

Hmm? We got batman, Biker Mice from Mars. No superman, that I remember, but we got that really good early 90's xmen series. In Australia we tend to get a pretty even mix of American and British stuff. Lots of BBC, but pretty much any popular American show'll be brought over.

And Australian and British cultures have a fair bit of divergence. It's like calling Canadians American.

The fact that you've never heard of either Hustle or Spooks doesn't say good things.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 Actually it's not. British and Australians have similar accents, similar tastes, similar stupidity because you like the same shitty shows.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

Dissimilar accents, different tastes, different show preferences, and different sorts social issues.

Jeez, way to simplify everything. The world is more than Americans and Everyone else. Get out of your shell and stop being such a shame to your country. Sticking your head in the sand and singing star spangled banner isn't going to make the rest of the world go away.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 When was America at it's greatest? When we were an isolated nation. We need to go back to that. FUCK YOU WORLD. We're America. The only country that chooses to import things rather than doing it out of necessity. just because you live in a shitty country doesn't mean you have to be jealous.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

..and you suck at American history as well, clearly.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 You could never stop to realize that the last war America was in was against the Japanese during WWII. You are much too ignorant to realize the last time we OFFICIALLY declared war was on 8 December 1941 against Japan. Of course, December 11th Hitler and Mussolini got all pissy about it and declared war on the US so we declared war right back at them. So you go ahead and tell me what war we lost and just remember that America hasn't declared war on anyone since 1941.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

In any case, American TV has it's fair share of crap, popular or otherwise. It's silly to adopt the quintessentially American insular outlook. There's a world beyond America, it's filled with people that are NOT fundamentally different to what you are, get over it, and grow up as a culture.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 There's a reason people dream of one day going to America. America runs the world, you don't like it, go to Mars bitch. I don't need to look beyond America, the rest of the world already looks into America. English is the second most commonly spoken language, as a natural tongue, and the most common as a secondary tongue. We've never lost a war. Anything we come up with instantly becomes popular throughout the world. Why would I go anywhere else?

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

> Never lost a war.

Alright, you just exposed yourself as a very obvious troll. Better luck next time.

[batmanownsyourass]

It's not my fault you know nothing about America beyond what you want to know. You think America "lost" Vietnam and Korea, but how could America lose when we never officially declared war on them. If you knew anything at all you would know it was a conflict. And on top of that, we only established cease fires. So technically, they're still going on.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

They can call it what they want, vietnam and korea were still wars.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 No they weren't, they were conflicts you illiterate buffoon. Maybe if you didn't spend all your time worshiping an idiot that was killed by an animal found in PETTING ZOOS you would realize your own idiocy.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

Lol, you actually believe that they were anything but de facto wars. It's cute, how willingly you take your propaganda.

..which idiot is that, exactly?

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 It's cute how you know nothing about America when you claim that everyone should know everything about the world. Tell you what, when you learn US history, I'll learn your shitty Australian history. Like how you're all the descendants of British criminals or how your greatest national hero was killed by an animal found in petting zoos. BEWARE AUSSIE! I have a stingray and I know how to use it.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

Jeez. You mention three things, and are dead wrong on each one.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 Tell me what I'm wrong about.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

You don't get stingrays in petting zoos. Steve Irwin was far from a national hero, it was pretty much the bogan demographic that cared about him in that way. He was more of an american thing. Paul Hogan style. Most people mocked the crap out of him over here for the ham and the accent.

Most Australian's these days aren't descendants of the convicts. In truth we'd have a very small population if not for immigration. All grandparents were born in Scottland for me.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 Not in your petting zoos, in my petting zoos we have lots of them. I gave one a kiss. It tastes like fish.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

And in general that's pretty consistent. There's probably a small number that had convict ancestry, but in terms of percentages, they were very small indeed. Added to that the state of Law and Order in britain at the time meant that half of those convicts would have been there for little more than the equivalent of shoplifting a bottle of milk.

And Australian history is far from shitty. Overlooked, maybe. And I'm far from totally uneducated about America.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 And yet you think Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq were wars. Seems pretty uneducated to me. You probably think that in 1861 America fought itself.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

Under international law, they were conflicts. And yet, the vietnam war'll still be know as the vietnam war. Same as korea, whatever diplomatic title it gets called. And a civil war is by definition a country fighting itself.

[batmanownsyourass]

@harlequin2262 Except that America never fought itself. The United States of America fought the Confederate States of America. You ignorant buffoon.

[harlequin2262]

@batmanownsyourass

You're splitting hairs.

[ekmad]

@harlequin2262 I agree, English Civil War was Englishmen vs. Englishmen. Although it was in two factions (like the ACW with COnfed and UUnion)

[flagmaster676767]

Haha! Yeah! I used to eat a banana at the start of each episode.

[steve062580]

OMG! Where do you find this shit?? I haven't seen this since I was like 5 years old!! I loved this cartoon. Thats awesome.

[nielyeager]

now this is the super hero movie that

NEEDS to be made lol

[purns82]

dnt fuk with banana man, he'd batter anyone mate

[DANIELcroatia]

UK ROCKS... USA SUCKS

[chunkybutt420]

no wonder the uk is so messed up look at their super heros

[davetherave28]

I'm guessing by the name & that bizzare 'logic' of yours you are yet another loud-mouthed yank.

....shut up and try to say something reasonably intelligent the next time you speak of my country :D

[chunkybutt420]

thanks for paying back the war debt... or at least some of it..... and thanks for the beatles... but banana man still would have been cooler if he had a cockney accent "ello guvna"

[flagmaster676767]

Atleast we're eating fruit instead of Big-Mac's!

[chunkybutt420]

lol fruit doesn't rot teeth....

[batmanownsyourass]

Fruit is high in sugar and acid, it rots teeth a hell of a lot more than a steak.

[Constance0Lirit]

if you eat alot of fruit it will...but thats just all foods. nothing 'healthy' is completly great for you in a large consumption :)

[olol001]

Oh yeah! I remember this!
