With respect chick - bollocks. If a troll uses their teenagery as justification for spewing hatred it does not make ALL teens look bad. I'd prefer to think that people could spot personal views for what they are, and not tar a whole nation/ age group/ gender etc etc with the same brush. Meh, I didn't mean to single you out (hence not attributing the quote) so I'll accept that you are entitled to that point of view & leave it there. Anyway I've decided to lighten up (see below).

This made me SOOOOOO angry... parts of it are just so.... inaccurate! and then like Dana I just had to laugh. Confuse a Brit by getting them to pump their own gas? Actually that was what turned me over to the giggles - both pump and gas are words for farting here. And farting cuts across any national boundaries - we all pump at the end of the day so I may as well stop being so bloody thin-skinned and imagine everyone sitting down together and having one big trump...

To join the accent conversation - Rennie's was great, as was Gweneth Paltrow's. Simon Pegg is in a film with David Shwimmer (spelling?) which is out this weekend - for us anyway, may be out there already - called The Big Nothing. Interested to hear how he does accent-wise. There was a clip of it on TV last night & I thought the accent was dire, but David Schwimmer said it was good....? Admit I'm not great on accents once it's out of the British Isles.
