Reason #2 why America is better than Britain.

While we get that underwear girl from the M&S ads sharing a vol-au-vent with Twiggy, this is what they get in America...

Motorcycles, helicopters, knife-throwing, massive explosions and supermodels in bras courtesy of Michael Bay and Victoria's Secret.

After dealing with Megan Fox for two installments of Transformers, Miranda Kerr would have seemed like Meryl Streep on the film set. She's certainly very talented...

And not a Christmas buffet in sight (even if Kerr could do with a couple of mince pies). Funnily enough, M&S are still the ones being accused of sexism.

What a load of old shit. As shit as his films in fact. If you think this is evidence that the US is better than Britain I suggest you go and live there for a few months. Cultureless wasteland that confuses ambition with bad manners and squashed amalgams of various animals with cuisine.

All this needs to be put to one side and respect does though need to be paid to the nation that invented the concept AND special equipment to enable a person to deep fry a turkey.

"You Will Need
In addition to a turkey, you'll need a 40 or 60 quart pot with basket or turkey frying hardware, plus a propane gas tank and burner, a candy/deep fry thermometer, a meat thermometer and lots of oil. Use oils that have a high smoke point, such as corn, peanut or canola oils.

You should also keep a fire extinguisher and plenty of heavy duty pot holders nearby."

I mentioned most of the above to an America-dwelling relative of mine. She retorted "actually, we DO have free healthcare. If you have a problem you go to the ER, and you will get seen and treated for free. Sure, there's a wait, but don't let anyone tell you America doesn't do free healthcare, because we do." She then went on to explain that whole families will go to the ER for their regular medical checkups/treatments etc, and they wait "around 6 hours" but at least it's free...

She still couldn't understand why I was so disgusted.

A couple of years ago they did a sports illustrated swimwear issue using a lot of these girls, only this time they actually painted the swimsuits on them. Of all the jobs in the world...

America better than Britain? Yeah right. I really wish we could have elevated gun crime, an overenthusiastic, bigoted, oppressive police force, rednecks, the KKK, no minimum wage, no NHS but a medical system where treatment relies on how much you can afford, a foreign policy verging on the fascist, unbridled capitalism with the poverty line a lot lower than anywhere in the western world, gas-guzzling SUVs, shit beer, an epidemic of fat cunts and worst of all, no fucking decent football.

The east Midlands in the pissing rain seems a whole lot better, thanks

Me likey.

I take it Miranda Kerr is no relation to the Kensit-slapping Scottish midget who used to sing with Simple Minds?
