do american women have no sense of humour. no hang on, they all watch that fat cow oprah, they're just dumb.\n\nwhen you see the start of oprah you see all these women with eyes shining and moronic smiles clapping like she is a god. what is wrong with these women? she was fat, then thin, fat then thin. get over her.

Women with flat tummies are bad news. They usually have some kind of compulsive disorder... like they continuously think they have a pooch belly and they constantly try to get rid of it. There is no pleasing psycho women like that.

You know you have asked one of the most pertinant questions I have read for a while.On the surface you have opened up a potentiel minefield here.\nI am english.I have visited the USA many many times and have loads of great american friends.I have written many times in this column poking a little ironic fun at "the yanks".\nMy experience is that" the average american" and remember we are talking the average,is warm, generous and very naive.They often have little or no understanding of other countries or their cultures. Often to the extent of having little knowledge outside their own state.Because they lead their lives around Oprah, Jerry Springer,World wrestling are easily influenced by tv propaganda they have become, unfortunately, the butt of jokes.I dont know the exact figures , but my understanding is that"Joe" doesnt travel outside the USA.I believe they have a blinkered view of the world. An observation confirmed by the replies I have received from americans. Self irony doesnt exist for you.Loosen up and dare to poke a little fun at your "leaders".The other point is remember that God isn't american.Try to learn and understand a little of other cultures and beliefs.You dont have to agree just take a look.Take care. Good Luck

I don't know where you live, or if you get out of the house much. Or if you just frequent the same places over and over again. There are, I am proud to say, a great number of beautiful lesbians out here. I happen to know..I'm one of them! :0 \n\nNot knowing your past experiences with lesbians, it's hard to know what your ideas of fat, ugly and mouthy are. I happen to think that Melissa Ethridge for one, is quite beautiful and she's about as lesbian as they get. But that's my idea. That she is beautiful, I mean. I am afraid that I am getting the sense that no one would match up to your version of beauty. \n\nAs for the mouthy part....lol...if you had to spend every minute of every day justifying your EXSISTENCE, much less your physical appearance.....lol....you'd be a bit grouchy too.\n\nOh, and I just LOVE how you're agreeing with the folks that only hold your opinion.  Ohhh, that just makes me hot......lol

Even Americans are mortified to see themselves and their neighbors be so huge. Check out WalMart sometime. Criminy. \n\nI think that people tend to do what they have seen done before them. Look at the impossibility of the 4 minute mile. Once the barrier was broken, there were many more that came right after. \n\nWhen one sees truly huge people, it is easy to think of ones self as "not too fat." I'm not as big as "that" person, so I am not so bad. \n\nAmericans don't all do things as a group. We live in an enormous country. We tend to do things that our families and neighbors do. There is very little true necessary activity in this nation anymore. Farming is done with machines, clothes are washed in machines, dishes are washed similarly, no ironing is truly necessary, food is microwavable and served up instantly in fast food restaurants. \n\nOur lifestyle, in general, seems to be one of needing more hours in the day. Most people are working couples, kids get second place to the parents' jobs. There isn't much time for family life, and for personal recreation, much let alone kayaking, cycling, mountain hiking, and volksmarching. \n\nThe hectic lives many Americans lead does not lend itself to healthful living. \n\nAnother thing to consider is that most Americans are not rich. Most Americans work very hard to try to "keep up with the Joneses." There are images of monied perfection that we try to attain, and it takes 2 jobs and not much time for anything else. The people who you see as jetsetters, ski bunnies, and driving great cars and living in fantastic homes are the top of the economic pile. Most of us are not as well heeled, and can't afford the gym, or even find time for a nice walk. \n\nYou talk about how the rest of the world views Americans. Sorry that the fat slobs here are ruining our world image. Sometimes it might be impossible, but a nice dream, to think that others might check in their own backyards before judging the rest of the world. \n\nI know that Americans are not the favorites of the world. But again, the great majority of us are decent, caring, well-balanced individuals, with open minds and hearts. Even the very fattest of us all might surprise the rest of the svelte world population with intelligence, dignity, inner grace, and kindness. \n\nSorry America doesn't present the best picture for you or the "rest of the world." Sorry about the starving folks in other countries. Truly I am. But to be angry with us because of a weight issue is to be small-minded and ignorant of the real factors facing transglobal relations. \n\nWe're fat because we have access to unhealthy foods, live an unhealthy lifestyle, and are caught in a rut of modern living. Habits are hard to break, and no one is eating extra calories to cause international hardship. Perhaps the next time I consider putting that second serving of Cheerios into my cereal bowl, I'll remember how it'll look to the rest of the world, and be ashamed.

Do you ever watch "Celebrity Fit Club"?  I like that better. You get to see all the overweight celebrities try to lose weight while they stir up drama for themselves.  I just don't know why they'd want to go on national television in front of a gazillion people when most of them can afford personal trainers and chefs like Oprah.

The expression "laugh out loud funny" is often exaggerated, I suspect. Not so in this case. I quite literally laughed out loud when I read this question, planksheer. Thanks for that, mate!\n\nIn answer to your question, YES! Anne Coulter is demented, and like all demented people (including the vile bundy) the eyes reveal all. There is a derangedly hostile look about the eyes which just screams out pure evil intent. It's actually quite frightening, much like her disturbed and disturbing political views. Hatred as venomous as that which she promulgates on a regular basis is deeply troubling. I feel sure she would prove quite capable of being a serial killer if only given the chance (I'm thinking Liberals would be her targets).\n\nThanks again for a really good laugh (and a very legitimate comparison). Cheers!

LOL, I think women just aren't into slapstick humor as much.  Although it cracks me up, it is so stupid.

Lets face it not everyone is a size zero. Statistically the average American woman is a size 12-14. That's not me that's what statistical information says. Hollywood has to tap into a new audience so that more women can relate. Be for real all these celebrities are not a reflection for what society has to offer they are a dream that people try to aspire to or imitate. These movies are just to show that it takes all kinds to make the world go around. If people are comfortable in their own skin then there's no telling what they can do. Redeemer that fat joke was not only Liam but far out dated!

I think either SNL is over already or they need new writers and new actors. It's tasteless!!! The only reason that the audience laughed is because of the blinking sign that told them to. Making fun of tragedy like that is in poor taste and the best thing to do is complain to their sponsors and tell them you won't buy their product if they sponsor that crap. The more people that do that, they'll lose sponsors. No money- no show!

First, Oprah did not ask the question, her "people" did.\nSecond, I do not like her, and would not answer or even GO to her question anyway.\nShe is a racist and only helps blacks in Africa.

Well no......you'd never see Oprah come out in her underwear and have panty parties........or ask Janet Jackson if she farts.......\nOprah is too.....conservative....she worries what people might think about her.....\nHappy Thanksgiving !!!!!

Good question! But do you really want to know?..\n\nI'm from Australia. Not Austria, AUSTRALIA. Aka 'the land down under'. You know, that place Elle McPherson came from.\nSorry ;)\nAmericans (from the US) don't seem to have a clue where our country is or even seem to care. It seems that Americans think they are the centre of the universe and they have the right to go tell other countries what to do. - Granted, this is probably a minority view (at least I hope so!) but it is what has stuck in the minds of many people here.\nOne thing that has inflenced my view is what an American woman said to my friend's wife while visiting the US:\na.w. - "So do you have computers back home?"\nfriend - "Com- what?" (making a sarcastic joke)\na.w. - "Oh, don't worry. I've noticed that as far away from America you travel, the more backwards the countries are." (didn't realise the joke & stuck her fat arrogant foot in her mouth)\n\nSo yeah, my opinion of Americans isn't too great. I'm not saying all are like that, but it only takes a few to ruin it for everyone.

Some people just have no sense of humor. Don't let it get you down. That was an excellent comeback. If she had a problem with it that is because she is a b****. She is not worth fretting over. I joke around all the time and I know how it feels to have a joke fall flat because someone has no sense of humor. Shrug it off and go on, be yourself. My philosophy is "If you don't like me, that is your loss."

Good question. People seem to be so sensitive & serious. No one seems to know how to laugh anymore...at anything. Some people have no sense of humor. It is "politically incorrect" to "make fun" of others in the form of a joke. We all need to learn to laugh more often...at other things but most of all at ourselves. We all need to lighten up.
