I've always said that ours (and yours, cos whilst our two nations comedy is different, there's a shit load of overlap) is too subtle for text communication!

And yeah, fucking yanks online... I've had a few drinks and a little bit of weed, so excuse this rant, but yanks online are fucked. I've met plenty in Australia and on my travels (including when I travelled the US) in person. 99% of them were lovely and I could chat with them and have a beer. But online? They are fucked for the most part. And I know that's a generalisation, and most of the online Americans are great, but those who aren't? They are so bad that they ruin my opinion of the good ones so badly I don't even remember the good interactions.
