They wouldn't know a glossary of British comedy terms if it painted itself purple and danced naked on top of a Bontempi organ singing "glossaries of British comedy terms are here again."

Gilligan Cut is so a British comedy term and not just something someone read on TV Tropes. Or saw in that one episode of Freakazoid. And that wasn't even Gilligan's Island, it was F Troop.

Generally speaking, the rule is that American English is, if not the older form then at least an example of an acceptable older form (for example, color vs colour). Which does make Britishers complaining about importing Americanisms even more asinine.

You would hope that some people might get the message from this that primary challenges are not necessarily the way to shape a political party to your own desires.

Oh my god - were the Russians responsible for giving Marco Rubio extra-salty pretzels that one time?

#23: The money was just resting in his account.

This was before they merged with the Royal Society for the Preservation of Twattish Epithets. Those were dark days for people who spell their names completely different to how they are pronounced as a trap for the proles.

He was consistently second-placed in the All-England Most English Name Competition behind Jolyon Maugham QC in the years before that upstart Benderdict Cumberpatch started flashing his stuff.

The K–Pg boundary was rigged! She knew there would be a question about iridium-tainted water!

I think the Americans should take some blame. Before they got their hands on him he was just an ordinary ex-newspaperman arsehole, no worse than Peregrine Worsthorne or the current Foreign Secretary. But they… did things to him. Experiments. Showed him sights that man was not meant to see. And then they sent him back.

Some people can talk to their mother and type at the same time.

BUT HER FOSSIL RECORD!

Bad law, but it could make a good procedural. For specific markets I mean. Every week a woman comes into the Doctor's office asking for an abortion, he sets his crack team of investigators on her a la Mission Impossible and it turns out she's a SLUT and has to carry that baby to term before handing it over to a…

Makes sense. If you thinking defeating ISIS involves simply using the words radical Islamic terrorism, obviously defeating science can be done by not using specific words. It's not melting glaciers - it's Freedom Water!

I'd have more sympathy if they weren't so willing to believe that unemployment and poverty in other people (especially Those People) were entirely due to moral degeneracy.

A lot of the jobs in deep-pit mines like in Pennsylvania have actually been 'replaced' by strip-mining and mountain-top removal (such a lovely term). Except those take less manpower, which is why they've replaced them. So it's not just that real, manly jobs that get you dirty are replaced with fake, female jobs…

Objection! Hyperdrive was pretty good whereas there are innumerable Pegg vehicles that would still have been utter shite with the addition of Frost.

Keeping pointless secrets about The Flash is the best tribute they could give the show.

#22: Currently on the run from the fascist police with a murderer, and a mass murderer, and a man in a bri-nylon vest.

I wonder if there's anyone else who might benefit from a precedent being set that statements made while campaigning don't count as evidence in legal proceedings.
