That be some BULL poo poo. Eno is a useful influencer, but he gets sooo much more musical credit than he actually did. Next they'll be saying he was responsible for the Low album.

Their first album was bad 70s heavy metal, and then it took them a bit to become living gods surpassing genre definition.

Arrgh! Rush is not Metal. Next you'll be saying Pink Floyd is prog

I thought they were talking about Prince as in "Prince", who would have declared the cast to be "Slinky MFs"

"'Allo 'Allo" is so freaking weird when you think about it.

- It's a sitcom made in the UK, so everybody speaks English in it
- But it's set in France, so everybody* is supposed to be speaking French
- "French" is just English with a French accent
- So Crabtree, who thinks he's fluent in French, makes errors, like saying "Good moaning" instead of "Good morning", meaning that to the viewer, he's crap at English-with-a-French-Accent-French.


*Except the Germans**, who are supposed to be speaking German, but are just speaking English with a German accent. Also, I have no idea what language is "really" being spoken when a German and French character interact.
**And the Italians, who speak like Mario "What-a mistake-a to make-a"

Can't remember, because it was about 50 goddamn years ago, but was it also that when the British pilots talked to them in a regular English accent, no-one could understand what they were saying?

Here's the thing right, if you were going to test a huge electric fence you wouldn't go the full two hand monkey grip right? You'd put a stick on it or something. So obviously he knew for certain the power wasn't on.

But you've got Eugene Levy there afterwards, one of the funniest dudes in movies, and it seems like he's going to deliver a killer punchline, and all we get is "well... we could just tell your mother we ate it"?? That's poo poo. Write a proper line. I dunno, something like "that's what I call a banana cream pie!" Come on

I saw some David Cross conversation like 2 pages ago and had to share my opinion thusly: David cross is funny as a character on screen but his standup is really bad.

It took me a long time to make the realisation after listening to his standup CD for a while: there's no jokes! It's just stories and stuff. What's that routine on there about him getting drunk with a country band? What is point? I guess it's fine for a quick laugh on a night out but we shouldn't take it as an artistic document.

This made me go and look up what "gabagool" actually is, and I found https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/how-capicola-became-gabagool-the-italian-new-jersey-accent-explained , which was pretty fascinating.

I wonder if there's anything similar going on with the Australian-Italian community, since a cursory Wikipedia suggests they came here mostly around the time that they went to the USA, or before.

Seems to me the Aussie Italians are much more traditional than their American cousins, here they still hold the customs of their Nonnas and Nonnos in high regard, and the young ones go out of their way to pronounce old words correctly. There isn't the same kind of mangling of language as in the US.
