Gotta Love British Humor

I’ve long been a fan of British humor and find it pretty refreshing that even after the crazies attack, they haven’t lost that great dry wit.  Some of my favorite highlights are:

• “The fact that some of the people involved in the recent unfortunate events may have been doctors is totally coincidental, just as if they had been accountants, plumbers, or random members of a deranged apocalyptic religious cult.”
• [Prime Minister Gordon] Brown said further government communications would prohibit the use of certain prejudicial words like “doctor,” “Vauxhall,” “podiatrist,” “propane,” “Asia,””drive,” “ticking noises,” “panic,” and “the.”
• “We are asking for vigilance, not vigilantes,” said Jameson. “After reporting alleged activities, the public should wait for the professionals, who have the necessary multicultural training and snappy reflective uniforms to prevent and/or clean up afterwards.”
• “As we saw recently in Glasgow, if a well-meaning but untrained citizen steps in and tries to stop a diverse person of activity by kicking him or her in the testicles, he or she could suffer a painful tendon injury.”

Good stuff!
