I can't believe all the utter bollocks flying around on this site...

The entire premise of this thread is utter ****, most of the comments from those on the side of the BBC detractors drip with blind ignorance - about the only thing of even mildly passing interest on this thread is the fact that I now know that a 'fez' is a euphemism for a foul stink in Swedish, but then considering every time Fez opens his cake-hole huge steaming dollop-loads of ripe bullshit issue forth on an all too regular basis, that hardly came as a surprise...

Pedro Poopy Pants, El Stenchorista of the Stenchorismo Frente Popular, is very fond of calling others morons, I've noticed.

I confess, I'm happy to share this sobriquet with Agathon, I'm in good company.

Coming soon to a cinema near you:

Fez the Swedish Gasbag, in the hilarious Latin comedy,

'Waiting for Guffmanoleto'.

It will be shown in selected venues in Odo-Rama, with scratch 'n' sniff cards available.

PAAARRRRPPPPP!!!!!!!!!

Sorry, just had to let out an enormous giancarlo, er, sorry, I mean Swedish fez.

Yes, I confess I had forgotten how in some cultures:

‘F@ck off you moron!’

is considered civil discourse, a compliment, or a polite greeting.

Thank you for the refresher course in Stenchorismo civics.


PAAARRRRPPPPP!!!!!!!!!

Aaahh, the relief.

Muahahaha, I made Fez abandon his nick!

What a triumph!

Perhaps some clarification is needed.

Fez (noun) = Colourful flat top hat, used by some Muslim men, especially in Turkey and Northern Africa (see picture)

is pronounced the same way as

Fes (verb, past time) = Farted

Then the other forms:

Fis (noun) = Fart

Fisa (verb, present time) = Fart

What made me connect Fez to farting was a silly joke my big brother used to tell when he was a teen:

- Two Turks, one Fez! that in spoken words can mean either " Two, Turks, one hat " or " Two Turks, one (of them) farted "

It is one of the "finest" portrayers of social bias and conditioning out there.

I don't remember the last time a guy made a move on a girl in it without being portrayed as lecherous.

Yeah Eastenders is **** as well, so is Corrie, and Hollyoaks (though this one is a more attractive wallpaper), and Emmerdale and other crummy soap you care to mention. The whole premise of soaps is that they're shite.

Something like Shameless on C4 is much more interesting and edgy and funnier version of your basic soaps. And to be fair nothing produced by any of the UK channels at the moment comes close to stuff like The Simpsons, Six Feet Under, The West Wing or ER.

BBC is a joke. Sky is on the way up.
That'll be Sky whose only original programming consists of that sit com with the landlord and Club Reps or similar ? And for this you pay way more than the licence fee ? The same Sky whose commitment to regional broadcasting is overwhelming ? The new ITV channel showed its commitment to local TV by trying to cut its output or move it to a central location. When STV bought Grampian one of the first things they looked at was whether Grampian news could be made in Glasgow.

Commercial realities means that a lot of what the BBC does is only going to be done by a public broadcaster not chasing adverts.

Agree about Hardtalk though but then it is cheap to make.

I thought about it, but with the BBC being so biased nowadays I decided "**** it", and watched Garth Marenghi's Darkplace instead.

Whew! Just giancarloed another one. Must have been the french beans in garlic and cream sauce.

Look, I'm terribly sorry, but your deficiency in common courtesy is not compensated by the fact that you look like a slightly darker version of Shelley Duvall.

Must lift my left buttock and let another fez out-


PPPOOOOTTTTT!!!!!!

Ah, that's so much better now.

Bit of a Stenchorismo manifesto- or should that be mani-fez-to?
