Are you American?

Are you American?

No, but I am! :O
Actually, I'm not but I'm trying to ease the tension 'cause I'm a gal and gals do things like that.

No, which is why there's no 's' in practicing.

The Americans use 'practice' as a verb.
The British use 'practise' as a verb.

For those who get confused about the British spelling, it can help to consider advise, advice, advising.

Best.

Guilty as charged you sad bastards.

Intriguing... Well, that's the modern education system for you. I stand corrected. :)

Women easing tensions!?! Have you met my girlfriend... or sister... or mother... or any other woman I have ever met :P

One corner of the sitting room.

Arthur the knife thrower………Just been to the funeral of an old pal of mine.

Madge the contortionist………What, was he?

Arthur………..Cremated.

Madge……..How did it go, the funeral?

Arthur………Sad, but the service went on for ever.

Fred the comic, reading the paper by the window but listening, as usual.

What did he die of, asbestosis?

Great Edwardo the magican walks into the room shaking his head…..I didn’t know

you could still catch them.

Sammy theVentriloquist……What’s that then?

Fred, listening again…….Who said that?

Great Edwardo…….Multi cellular parasites.

Fred…….Go and sit outside. What the hell are them, it’s not catching is it?

Great Edwardo….Worms.

Sammy….. Can’t you make them disappear?

Fred……Oi! that’s my game. Worms, but you hate fishing, boom, boom.

So what did the doctor give you, besides a rod and a permit?

Great Edwardo….Some jollop or other, to make me go.

Sammy ……I could use some of that, bit bunged up you know, getting old. Years ago

I could piss like a horse and crap like an elephant, every morning, six o clock on the

dot.

Fred……I still do, six o clock, on the dot.

Sammy ……Lucky bugger.

Fred……. Wish I didn’t, don’t get up till 7, Elsie’s fed up with it

Come on Aaron, Johnny D, AJP 29, Eileen??? the song, Come On Eileen.
I challenge you to write a sketch for I Thang You, (I think that's what we decided to call it). Or be forever doomed to mediocrity. Genisis chapter12 verse 37.

There are so many old folks homes near me, you can smell the piss when you fly
over in a plane.

Jerf mate,it's already been pointed out to you that the way you're setting stuff out makes it difficult for people to follow so sort it out already. Poor presentation could be masking a genius joke..

Niteowl. I get a lot of this, are you saying that every sketch written by every contributor is set out wrongly. I challenge you to write a sketch for I Thang You, to show everyone on the site, how good you are. Otherwise complete this adage, either put up or....
I'm assuming you are able to read this.

Jerf: This variety/circus acts old folks home may possibly be an asylum but I like to help the elderly so here’s a contribution.

Bob the mime artist comes into room.

Residents: Morning Bob.
Bob: (waves )
Residents: How come you were late for breakfast Bob?
Bob: (shakes right hand in wanking gesture)
Residents: Can you still get it up Bob?.Good man.
Bob: (shakes head from side to side)

Camera pans to reveal Johnny the juggler balancing/spinning a plate on his erection.

niteowl wouldn't understand it because it's not set out properly.

But it's so long since she wrote anything it was in Latin
