• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Random thought for the day

British comedy was a little more raw and sometimes biting and was difficult to find the humor in American TV comedy shows. Action shows based upon cop dramas and the excitement of Hollywood in that genre helped Brits escape the depression of post war Britain, but the comedy didn’t translate so much as people couldn’t equate to supposed American family life.

Yes, I agree.

Growing up in Britain, the 60’s and 70’s were a weird time for television. There was some excellent comedy, usually based on the Second World War, which was a huge part of life’s experience for British adults; or it had rather sexist and racist themes as some in society pushed back against the change that was occurring in British everyday life..

American television hadn’t yet taken hold, in terms of comedy at least. British comedy was a little more raw, sometimes biting, and it was difficult to find the humor in American TV comedy shows.

Ya *brit humor* here in the States is often misunderstood, if at all! I can’t say I actually understand more than a vague gist of some!
