An update on me as a person: I am an Anglophile. I adore everything from England/Ireland/Scotland/Wales. If you really want to know why, I think it is because Europe is infinitely cooler than the US, and I wish I was born there.
Moving onto the point, everyone should be watching the show "Little Britain." Starring Matt Lucas and David Walliams, the show is one of the most brilliant pieces of comedy ever written. Characters include Daffyd- the only gay in the village, Emily Howard- a seriously delusional transvestite, and Vicky Pollard- the most atrocious delinquent in all of Little Britain. The show is on BBC America and the second season just came out on DVD.
My friend Kevin and I cannot stop quoting this show. I am one of those people who can speak entirely in quotes from pop culture for about 5 days straight without tiring of it. I should have been on the World Series of Pop Culture on VH1, if only I hadn't missed my opportunity to audition in NYC...dammit. But "Little Britain" has just added to my reperatoire of un-original material.
In conclusion, go watch this show. You will be forever grateful.
My next post will concern the other objects of my affection from the other side of the pond. Including some things that are so underground, you will think I am the most pretentious ass in the city...which I just might be, when it comes to Britain.
