Stupid People

01Apr08

I got this email today via a photosharing web site I belong to:

“An American Who Likes Doctor Who - I guess stranger things have happened.
- M*** “

This kind of ignorance makes me livid. I will not abide racism of any sorts this included because to me that’s what it is. Can you really only be a Doctor Who fan if you live in the UK?! In that case we’d like South Park, The Simpsons, Sopranos, Friends, Bones, CSI (you can keep Miami), The Wire, My Name Is Earl, Six Feet Under, Dirty Sexy Money, Nip Tuck, Desperate Housewives back please.

Lets pick on the yanks cause they are an easy target.. well you know what, they might be but they are wonderful too - I am too mad to write something sensible right now and even if I could I doubt I could top this much more articulate post by Amanda that she wrote here.

I responded to this idiot as follows (bad morning so he got the brunt of my wrath)…

“I am British but I have lived in the USA for many years now and I am sick of stupid ignorant Brits with their snobbery about America. Get over yourself.
Do you even have any real basis for this racism? Let me guess, its left over from WW2 when America didn’t join the war fast enough. I bet you hate the French too!

For your information:
1. Doctor Who is on BBC America and the Sci Fi channel and is doing very well over here thank you.
2. Torchwood - is on both too and doing just as well.

Lastly its people like you that make me glad I left the UK. I am proud of being British but it’s people like you and your snide little racist comments that make me ashamed. You ass.”

    You’re so cute when you’re angry!!!

    I must say it is good to see that we don’t have the monopoly on stupid people here in the US!!!

    I wonder if it would be ok if we pointed out that if the US had stayed out of WWII altogether that there may be no Queen’s English—just German!

    Probably not…

    I just learned two new British things last night (it’s a constant process)
    1) Cheese-eating Surrender Monkeys = the French
    2) Someone said the word inVENT-try and I thought they were adject-ifying the verb ‘invent’ and said, Wow, I didn’t know you all said someone was inVENTtry if they were an inventor, which recieved quite a puzzled look… didn’t realize they meant INven-tory.

    Always learning, I am! 8)
