    I don't quite know how this happened, but my girlfriend is at a (female) strip club and I am home drinking beers alone and watching movies.

    I have managed to disassemble my laptop and my microwave and fix both of them in the meantime, though. I have half a mind to take my flashlight outside and install my new catalytic converter, too. For some reason I always fix shit when I'm drunk.

    You do know every guy is chanting in the bar for fake lesbian action at this moment, right?

    God Bless all of those guys.

    I will be picking up all of the girls later and if she has awakened some hidden bisexual side, I think we can all agree that I'm the real winner there.

    Drunk argument:


    Where does testosterone develop?

    I have no idea how my friends end up in these debates.

    (I say the testicles, others say the brain.) They're stupid.

    I usually like the original of most shows and films, but I'll be fucked if the British Office is anywhere close to the American version. The American version is unapologetically a line for line, character for character remake of the original, but it is flat out better in almost every way. And I'm a big Ricky Gervais fan.

    It's unusual for me to disagree with Frankie, but I feel the exact opposite way.

    The American Office is a funny, enjoyable show...the British Office is a comedy masterpiece; one of the funniest television series ever made. No freaking comparison. Ricky Gervais is a hundred times the comic the one-dimensional Steve Carrell is.

    I think the British version rises above, easily. It's incredibly, palatably real and that's what makes it so brilliant. The American is funny (but not in my top 15 at least) but it's clown shoes, almost like a parody of the original version.

    Awake some hidden bisexual side? Females don't have a HIDDEN bisexual agenda.

    That's called "going to college" for every fucking female on the planet. That's what they use as the excuse to scissor their roomates, anyways. Four smirnoff coolers and a couple of teary ex-boyfriend stories and the next thing you know cunts are being bumped like two baseball gloves being slapped together.

    I think Gervais is at LEAST as good as Carrell if not better, but I think almost every single other character in the British version is vastly inferior to their American counterpart. The British cast just felt like a poor man's version of the American cast... but take everything I say with a grain of salt since I watched the American version first.

    I think this is the key here, I KNOW the American version is a complete rip off of the British version, but the British version FEELS like a poor mans version of the American take because I saw the American version first.

    I think that Dwight is the only American character that stands out, but I hate his creepy IMAX screen-sized forehead. He looks like a fucking hydrocephalus victim.

    I like the raw look to the Brit version, too. It much more resembles the documentary-style feel they wanted for it.

    With the exception of Dwight, who is admittedly excellent, I don't think anyone from the American cast is as good of a comedic actor as their British counterpart. And Garrett is just as awesome as Dwight.

    But more importantly, both versions of The Office are carried by their respective managers, and while Carrell has made a nice career from the same shtick, he often gets stale, and is certainly not the hilarious force of nature Ricky was. I also think the writing was a little less predictable and more interesting.

    Edit-

    Just read Crown Royal's post above; agree.

    I think I settled the argument.

    I shot a load of testoserone all over the wall. It didn't come from my brain.

    Now my friends are frowning at me.

    I was just proving a point and now I'm the bad guy?

    I just hope they don't make EVERY Brit hit into a sitcom.

    The new Matt LeBlanc show, Episodes, is about remaking a Brit show into an American hit, and Leblanc has his best role to date as "himself" on the show. He alone makes it worth watching.

    Just please, please PLEASE don't remake The I.T. Crowd. Possibly Britain's funniest show EVER, and it would be shit on no matter how hard you tried to Americanize it.

    Richmond The Goth rocks the shit.
