Jokes about the Banker on "Deal or no Deal" are already old.

Cute, but you have to realize that Brits are not very prevelant on this board. Sure there’s a bunch, but there’s not all that many and I’d wager there’s probably more posters from Australia here.

I remember someone doing a graph. The Graph Had a huge bar for USA, then a Bar about a quarter the size of the USA bar for UK, then the rest were less than a tenth its size.

I could be wrong though… Anyone got a link to that Graph?

ETA: It amuses me to watch people be baffled.

That’s funny, because your reaction sure reads a lot more like “pissy” than “amused.”

Anyway, for those who don’t know who Michael Mckintyre is…

It seems most US posters in this thread are being more dickish than need be, but why not just explain what you are talking about and why it’s funny (or not)?

How am I being dickish?

Have I mentioned that Multiple Quotes absolutely ROCK?

@Lobsang

I’m saying jokes about the Banker on “Deal or no Deal” are already old.

“old” is code for used and no longer funny.

I still didn’t get it at this point, but I did read on

@jayjay

Lobsang is most likely talking about the British version of DOND, which doesn’t have Howie Mandel.

This is where I got it, even though, yes, I am well aware that Lobsang lives on the right side of the Atlantic. My error!

@Lobsang

I was just ranting that Jonothan Ross is predictable. Shock horror: There’s a banking crisis and DOND has a banker on the other end of a phone and J R has thought: “There’s a shit joke in there somewhere.”

I like J R but I don’t like his joketelling ability.

As mentioned above, I only see the show produced on the left side of the Atlantic, so I didn’t know J R – except for the one from the Ewing clan.

Also shock Horror: Lobsang’s created a thread about something not very important or serious.

I love reading Lobsang’s posts, which is why I always open them. If a poster or a subject doesn’t interest me, I use up my entire willpower allocation for the day and move on

@Lobsang

I’m risking my feelings being hurt here, but I hope there’s a certain charm to that.

That’s because you’re a charming guy. And I’m not even hitting on you.

I hope I’ve contributed to your amusement quotient for today

@Lobsang

Wait, is this board an Americans only club? Shit, I’ve been breaking the rules for six years.

You may have been breaking rules, but that ain’t one of them. As I recall, you’ve actually mentioned when you’ve posted while, uhm, snockered?

Well, he did. And hopefully I wasn’t. And still am not, even after posting THIS

FTR, my BAC is 0.0

It was a knee-jerk thread which turned into a train-wreck.

For a short period it was an annoying trainwreck (where I got a bit snarky) but then I decided to have a bit of fun.

And thanks for saying you enjoy reading my posts I’d probably enjoy reading yours if there were more than 810 of them

LOL, thanks… now there are 815 of them, and who knows what will happen by the end of this session
