Living close to the US, like I do, Snorty, you become familiar with the arrogance that drives across our borders in July looking for snow & skiing - because Canada is the Frozen North!? 😕 This really happens!!!
Most people who have posted in this thread are not from the US, though.

I don't think I've ever met anyone who hasn't seen The Producers.
So what were they? I don't see you as a Blazing Saddles or Charlie and The Chocolate Family kinda gal.
I may not be that kinda gal, but yes, one of them was "Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory" (and I even liked it). The other one was "Young Frankenstein".

Originally I wrote "....who hasn't seen The Producers before"
Then I realised the "before" was redundant. So I took it off.
Then I realised I had forgotton to ask my question.
So obviously when I get drunk my memory gets worse but my sentence construction improves.
Odd.
Originally posted by dottewellWhen I read the sentence before you edited it, I understood it as "I don't think I've ever met anyone ... before", in which case the "before" isn't redundant, but I considered commenting that you haven't really "met" me. But then you changed your post, so I stopped considering it.

Originally posted by NordlysIt's still redundant. I can't have met someone in the future.

Your right, though, "met" was probably wrong.
Now what was I doing again? Ah yes, heading for bed and a terrible headache in the morning.
Originally posted by dottewellThe "before" would mean "before I met you" in this case, and would thus not be redundant.

Good night!

Maybe the greatest of "american" stand-up comedians, but I personally wouldn't say best ever to live. Comedy is seemingly very different around the world.
I really liked Stir Crazy....lmao.
Richard Pryor was pretty damn funny. He also got hooked on crack when it first came out. He had a huge problem with crack... and on top of that... he caught on fire smoking it. He was wandering the streets and a cop or med was all like, "Dude, you are needing some medical attention, bad".
He said... "I feel like if I stop walking, I will die".
I guess that was funny, cuz he laughed about it in his act for the next several years.

It was a half-assed (stoned) suicide attempt.
He doused himself with brandy while drunk and stoned on crack and lit himself on fire.
Woke him up.
Goodbye Richard.
Thanks for all the laughs.
