"I'm gonna get the boys..." WTF???

spydrz · 02-13-2007, 10:49 PM

I don't understand why Jezza equates the Camaro with murderers...is that some British joke I don't get? Were Camaros even available in the UK? I never saw any there.

SpecC · 02-13-2007, 11:23 PM

He found it in a bad neighborhood. He kept being told that he'd be shot by the salesmen. The salesmen had guns with them to keep them safe. The salesmen told him stories about the last one being shot a few times.

Why not?

i think "the boys" are her two incestial sons, who might I add have no front teeth, and were kicked out of kindergarten for being too stupid!

I think he said that the camaro was statistically the car of choice for murderers.

We never had them in the UK.

It would be funny to see that treo cruise around East L.A. with "rap is rubbish" painted on their cars.

He definitely didn't do his homework on that one. Gang members are notorious for rolling in mid 1980's Buick Regals with 10" tall Dayton 100 spokes.

It was pretty anti-American in a childish, 'lets attack stereotypes' kind of way (cheese, obesity, murderers, etc.), but I must admit it made me laugh

if you guys watched the whole episode, he uses the same stereotypical jokes to make fun of americans as you already mentioned, (fat and stupid people, murderers, guns, burger eating, pick up truck driving, hardcore capitalists, rude) but the one that really made me laugh, but one that i was least expecting was CHEEEEEEESE....

question to our american friends: i know that in some parts of america, shootings and murders occur on a daily basis, but is it true that in those neighborhoods everyone needs to carry a gun? like that persian car salesmen in the video in miami, had a pistol on him, a shotgun and riffle with scope? it just seems extreme for that to happen

TommyBahama · 02-15-2007, 07:07 AM

no not everyone carries a gun, and while big cities might have murders very often its not every day or confined to a small area that might lead the people living their to start carrying guns.

i liked the fat stig.

Seriously, I think that was an even less flattering look at the USA than Borat.... they could have at least made Miami look a bit better.
