You think insulting people is funny? Weird British humor, I guess
Huh? Er...Gene Wilder is American, so it is an American joke not British! Ha!
Well, we have it here in UK but, the news today revealed that there has been an online spending surge both here and in USHa. and here I was thinking how do companies in other countries survive without Black Friday sales and all that commotion.

ThisAre you saying you actually think Gene Wilder said that? It's a meme. Someone took that image and put words on it. And it's not a joke - it's preachy.
By British humor,I meant that you apparently think it's funny, since you posted it in this thread.
???? What?This
And then said the Brits were more dignified
Thank you.I must be less sensitive. I took no offense. It's just a quip.

I apologize. I did misread that. I don't have my knickers in a twist. (Someone from the US would say, "panties in a bunch".)???? What?
I am sorry you seem to have difficulty in understanding me. My sentences were fairly straightforward, i.e. not cryptic. I was referring to shopping online being more dignified, i.e. regardless of country.
However, when I first joined here I was tipped off about the attitude to those who are not American, notably the Brits and I now see why. Jeez. Chill!!!
It has been taking place in the US for many decades. This is the first year that I am hearing that it takes place in the UK too. I believe it is because of the influence of US retailers on the internet. Black Friday, as an event for sales, is fairly new in Canada.Thank you.
It was not a barbed/targeted joke at all since Black Friday is not just an American event, i.e. occurs in UK too.
