People who prefer british post a link of some form of british comedy to try and convince the people find american funnier than british is funnier, people who prefer american post a link of some form of american comedy to try and convince people who find british funnier that american is funnier.

I'm personally all for American humor, so brits, maybe this will change your mind on american humor (warning, may cause a laughing fit)

cultural differences my friend... for example i have no idea what 'Kool Aid' is... so that clip did not very much for me :s

i know what i find funny, and it's got bugger all to do with what country it comes from...

I see no reason to try to 'convince' people of anything. Either you like a particular style of humor or you don't; it is much like music in that manner. I don't find one funnier than the other, both have their merits in different styles and as I have a very complex personality, both appeal to me at different facets of my life; again, much in the same way different genres of music do.

I would no more try to sway someone with this than to twist their arm trying to get them to like music they don't care for.

There is no such thing as British humor. British Humour however, is cool. And i have to say i have honestly never found family guy that funny.

I'm not sure which one i like more, im not as familiar with British humour so i will go with American. Here are some great videos from both nationalitys though...

American

British

Dead Parrot

Edit- In the UK they add Us to alot of words. Humor is one of them.

Are we talking comedy here?

Oh I love that episode, I think it's the very first of the show - that part is also featured in another Family Guy episode. Always gets to me though. Hahah.

How about some American comedy? I'm sure you're all familiar with Dane Cook.
