I've given it a good try. But it's predictable (not so much in content but in delivery and characterisation, you know exactly how their characters are going to act...) and the cutaway jokes don't do anything for me.

That seems to happen 5-10 times per ep.

Maybe that's just me being fussy but after watching a couple of episodes that kind of formula really starts to show, badly. And it just isn't my thing tbh, overuse of pop-culture parodies doesn't do anything for me too.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention Futurama though, that's my 2nd favourite animated comedy, when it started and I was but a kiddie I thought "yeah, this beats the simpsons..." and I still stand by that (although early Simpsons is great). American Dad is quite good, and I prefer it to Family Guy, mainly because the episodic storyline is more coherant/existent and doesn't have THOSE cutaway jokes.

Heh, I get a bit critical of these things... haha, I don't mean to shit on people's interests. Damn, maybe we british should make a decent animated comedy too (I don't count "Monkey Dust" as our effort :/)

Yeah, I agree that the flashback thing in Family Guy can get annoying; they might as well just make a film of each character's life story or something.

However, you can't say that Stewie Griffin isn't the coolest baby, and Quagmire the biggest slut, on the face of this earth

I'm pissed off about all the emo fags loving gay bands like BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE. People should know better, they should know when bands are actually trying to make good music, or just money.

It's better than the ones that pretend to like Burzum and Darkthrone. tbh.

I seem to be going further and further backwards with every passing day, with regards to finding a new place to live...what the fuck is wrong with these people who are supposed to provide a service for us?!

time for a car bomb?

Haha, a mate of mine once did something very similar a few years back!

He went off to the local council office with a query, not sure what it was but it was dismissed as being of little relevance/importance. Anyway, walking past said council office a few days later, we hear a massive explosion...no one was allowed to go anywhere near it, we thought a car had been blown up, but a few days later it emerged that someone had wired up a tin of white paint to explode all over some posh authority figure's silver BMW/Mercedes/whatever it was!

Oh, and this was back when I was still living up in North Wales. Down here the council are even worse...but car bombs aren't a good idea, okay I know I want to move out, but I'm not so desperate that I want my new home to be a prison

I was flipping the bird and my hand cramped up. My hand got stuck in the bird position for awhile until the charlie horse went away in my hand.
