Stupid Americans :D Il est tres funny ;)
That is funny. Had a guy from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, with whom I used to work with. He asked me if we had trees in Ireland! I told him no, because the dinosaurs kept eating them. His response..."No wonder".:rolleyes:
lol... that video is so funny!
the other stuff by that duo is priceless as well :D
it's a pretty old premise that gag,....could probably do it in any country with the same results, plus, Australians and comedy don't add up.
True, I know some pretty thick Irish people too. Having said that the American knowledge of geography outside their own country is stunning in its scarcety. When I spent time in the states we hung out with some Texan girls. Pretty as they were they had never heard of Ireland and thought the Irish language was something we were making up to fool them. :D
The Paul Hogan Show begs to differ. Unusable now, but a classic in it's time.Quote:

That's a very old clip, but still horrendously funny!
Around the 6minute mark they get into a volley of rapid-fire stupidity:
-which state does KFC come from?
-what the chicken? I don't know
-well, do you know what KFC stands for?
-Kentucky Fried Chicken.
fookin priceless! BTW, in Quebec KFC is called PFK!
C.
sorry, just watched a bit more of the video (7:08):
-how many Eiffel Towers are there in Paris?
-eh, I'd say about ten!
I'd say I saw it about ten times when we were beaten by PSG!! :o
Used to love that show remember staying up because it was on late (well it seemed late at the time).Quote:

It's PFK in other parts of Canada too, not just Quebec. Looked so funny when I seen the PFK take-away. :DQuote:

How many times have we seen County Killarney posted on American websites??:eek: :D
I asked my 9 yr old some of the questions from that clip such as a Country begining with the letter U (he said Uraguay) he knew pounds were currency in UK, he knew there was only one effiel tower, and he knew that KFC was from Kentucky! So in other words Irish kids are better educated that American adults.
