Would this be an appropriate place to post my favorite Judy Garland video?

Yes, like in America (only even more so), ordinary Britons must walk a fine line not to offend muslims, minority religions (I separate the two because islam is a cult, not a religion) homosexuals, pedophiles, bestials and aardvarks. On the other hand, muslims can freely and openly scream “DEATH” to anyone who inconveniences them.
It almost makes one want to rush out and offend and stereotype everyone in sight, just to make a Statement. But not quite ... too much work.
But if anyone makes a joke about pregnant redneck broads while I’m at Wal-mart, I won’t take offense ;-).
I knew I liked you for some reason!
LOL

A woman goes to her doctor who verifies that she is pregnant. This is her first pregnancy. The doctor asks her if she has any questions. She replies, “Well, I’m a little worried about the pain. How much will childbirth hurt?”
The doctor answered, “Well, that varies from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy and besides, it’s difficult to describe pain.”
“I know, but can’t you give me some idea?” she asks.
“Grab your upper lip and pull it out a little...”
“Like this?”
“A little more...”
“Like this?”
“No. A little more...”
“Like this?”
“Yes. Does that hurt?”
“A little bit.”
“Now stretch it over your head!”
I’ll look for some Wal-Mart jokes while you’re gone, too. :)
This is hugh. And series. :)
Meantime; for thicker skin; and a reintroduction to 'laughing at one's self'; watch 'over and over', if necessary: Clint Eastwood/Grand Torino'. . .
Boy, she sure was something wonderful. :)
At first I thought the UK’s “immigrant” community would have problems with this, but since it focuses on humor, I suppose not. They’ll just have to not laugh too loudly while cutting off a homosexual’s head. Then they’d be cited.
#20 is for Gabz, LOL!

I gotta admit - I was just about to punch out of the video - and then I saw the first wisps of smoke working their way down the stairs on the left.
Good one, Beast.
The UK is going down the toilet, fast.
I only link the best ;)
They have essentially outlawed Benny Hill, Monty Python, Are You Being Served, and pretty much all British comedy ever made.
And the beat goes on.
"Those who control language control minds."
Great Britain today, USA tomorrow. No Joke.
