UnBooks talk:Johnny Foreigner's Guide to British Humour
If someone wanted to do a Johnny Foreigner page that would be great

oh my[edit source]
That is so, so fucking funny. I almost peed on myself
- It's not that funny. --VERDANT autumn 11:51, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
Yes, marvellous !! Having been at the receiving end of a concerted attack from the Wikipedia Gestapo that one of my entries (on roast beef, for goodness sake... not exactly highbrow stuff!!) was "awful" for using the term Johnny Foreigner (it was unlilaterally removed) I am delighted to see it defined so well here. Do you think Americans will ever get a collective sense of humour??
Never --Dave 19:34, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
What was funny was the pathetic attempt to be funny in this article.
American humor[edit source]
I'm familiar with humour already, I don't need a guide for it, can't we have a guide to American humor? Weri long wang 12:30, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Major changes[edit source]
What on Earth happened to this node? It was a lot funnier (and a lot more British) in this incarnation: oldid 1343634.
Indeed, the one we have now is way too American, it would be way better if it were more British like the old one.
Yep, the old version is WAAAY better-- funnier and better written by far. This version has a lot of badly-written crap in it. You guys should revert it to the old version. 71.134.238.197 18:04, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
- Fixed. For an IP, you don't suck. Now get an account! – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 18:07 Aug 03, 2008
Fatties[edit source]
I don't think it right to use obesity in this sort of context. If the jokes were changed to be less offensive (I'm not fat personally, but i do think it could offend some). In the 'Great British Humour Today' and 'potty humour' sections.ResidentEthel 20:03, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Shut up man, who cares about the fat being offended? They should be, they are unhealthy and take up lots of space on trains. Willapedia
- Classic! That has to go in the article. -- Hindleyite Converse • ?pedia 15:33, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
This site is meant to be funny, not predjudiced and ignoraant. Pricks. ResidentEthel 20:33, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
Why isn't this featured?[edit source]
It's too funny!
- You're joking, right? --Knucmo2 02:08, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Behead you! Oh no it's agh![edit source]
Anyhow. I just wanted to congratulate the maker of the "irony" picture.
