@shambler92 but if I if was Anna Paquin I’d probably be having a play with my boobs
@IntrepidMoocher
Your choice of installation: English (US) or English (UK)?
The only difference is we’re going to hire different voice actors for the voiceovers, because American’s orgasm and/or hate the English accent and because actual English people can’t stand American accents.
Sometimes, I like to think of America as the retarded bastard offspring of British purebreds, then I remember British might is primarily composed of chavs. Then I get sad. And drink gin. Alot of gin.
best comedy duo ever
@icynok – The majority of Europeans don’t speak English. Perhaps unsurprisingly, English originates from England, making it the ENGLISH language. If foreigners choose to speak it too, that’s fine, but it’s still English. Americans I’ve heard pretending they speak another language, American, obviously don’t realise how stupid that sounds. I happen to speak a bit of German but I don’t think it’s anything other than German no matter where I speak it or for how long I’ve been speaking it.
@IntrepidMoocher
actually its *our* language as in all of ours considering the majority of Americans are of European heritage.
So god damn true about the interesting people leaving for a smoke while you stay with the rabble!
@garethac81 I took it to mean that she reacted that way because of how David was ranting about it, not that she was being stuck up. I don’t personally think she came across stuck up.
Graham: “Do you smoke?”
Anna: “And if I did, would I tell you?”
Wow…Anna Paquin is really up herself. For fuck’s sake, she acted like he asked her if she roleplays in the bedroom!
@IntrepidMoocher Um. Thanks? >.<
@maiathebee410 – I stand corrected. Canadians and Americans; they’re like aliens that happen to speak our language. :-)
@IntrepidMoocher Anna Paquin was born in Canada and grew up in New Zealand.
He must own a pair of denim cut-offs
Most of that went straight over Anna’s head. Americans; they’re like aliens that happen to speak our language.
Watching this while drinking coffee:L
I hate how Graham is clearly trying to integrate her in the weirdest ways possible and she can’t really reply and she’s just like ‘yeah’.
i think she’s gorgeous!
David Mitchell: Never-Nude
@Drtruman She’s an actress not a comedian. Besides she is on National TV in a foreign country, tell me you wouldn’t be a little nervous too.
shes got the worst smile i’ve ever seen.
Why all the Anna hate? She’s just a little shy/awkward.
@BelfastAtheist This isn’t the section where she’s being interviewed. If you watch that part, you’ll find she does have a personality. What’s with all the hate for Paquin? She’s charming.
@jasonofcompsci she’s not american, she’s from new zealand/canada.
@jasonofcompsci I beg to differ!
She has no banter what so ever
@BelfastAtheist I’m not sure she’s devoid of personality, it just seems like she’s uncomfortable and doesn’t understand their humour!
