Funniest comment all night

We went out with friends last night, ditching all our kids with the intrepid Jessica. At the end of the evening we were mightily entertained by two funny but very drunk Scotsmen.

One of them poured 2 small bottles of Guinness into his pint glass. "Everything in America is sold in these little things, its ridiculous! Everything is so small," he said. Then added, "Except for the women's asses! Look at that one over there!"




(OK, also not small in America: the cars, the roads, the houses, the people, and the portions of everything EXCEPT Guinness. What else can you think of?).

Very Very funny! Does that mean that as our houses/cars etc are a lot smaller our bums are too?

food portion size and don't forget the breasts - we love our implants in the US.

What else is small or what else is huge? hmmm...we are short on patience, HUGE on service/getting what we want when we want it, short on appreciation of anything artistic, short on romance, small HOLIDAYS (vacations), miniscule maternity leave, low low TAXES...

I was going to say Egos too! So, how about our sense of entitlement?

Big on swagger & boastfulness, small on tolerance or appreciation for anyone different. Big on proud ignorance.
