Yes we're all insecure on this forum.

Welcome...

Your taste is a very mixed bag, some real class acts there though.

Stir crazy is a great film, but did you not see, see no evil, hear no evil,those early scenes in that shop are nothing short of brilliant.

:O Someone has a bigger ego them me.

Laughing out loud

I am shocked there EMS. I thought you hated everything. Laughing out loud
Yes you do have some crackers up there. Peter Cook & Pryor are 2 of my favs too. xxx

¡Buenos noches Sr. el comer de las camisas! (that's the best I can do this time of night!) Have fun!

Looks like you made it just in time for New Year. Welcome.

Welcome :D

How can you not like Father Ted, them little Irish fellas are well funny! I agree with the rest of what you dislike, except the American version of WLIIA is very funny...improv is a brilliant talent.

Welcome!

I think Father Ted is a tad overrated. 'Tis funny though.
