Friday Funnies: Downton Abbey

Recently, I joined the Downton Abbey bandwagon, after fighting it for the better part of a year. After blitzing through the first two seasons, I am now impatiently waiting for season three to begin. Will Mary and Matthew finally get married? Will Edith find a beau? Does everyone hate Thomas as much as I do? How will Sybil adapt to life in Ireland? Could Maggie Smith be any funnier?

These are the questions currently keeping me up at night. (Not really. Maybe.)

I stumbled across these two little gems, and thought they were worth sharing on this sunny Friday. (If the sun is not shining where you live, I do apologize. The sun has not shone here in England in almost two weeks, so I think it’s worth celebrating today). If you’re a fan of Downton Abbey, you’ll find them a wonderful parody of the show. If you’re not a fan of the show, then download them off Itunes, or better yet, buy the DVDs. Then, plan to lose at least three days on the couch.

I hope they make you laugh today! Happy Friday!

Friday Funnies: Britain’s Got Talent (and the chocolate winner announced)!

I have never been much of a fan of reality television, especially shows like The Bachelor, American Idol, Britain’s Got Talent, etc. Admittedly, I used to watch AI, but after they eliminated Chris Daughtry in Season 5, I quit watching cold turkey. Hmph.

Once in awhile, I do watch funny audition clips from Britain’s Got Talent on youtube…and I stumbled acrossed this hilarious version of Evanescence’s Bring Me to Life. And this guy is definitely for real. Enjoy!

Thanks to everyone for reading and commenting – it means a lot to us. The Celebrate! chocolate winner is…..Camille! :) Camille, if you’ll email us your details, we’ll put your chocolates in the post!

Happy Friday, All!

My husband’s only comment about this comic – “Since when do conferences offer free food?”

For all of us living with grad students….we’re sure this is a conversation that has most definitely been had in every home.

Friday Funnies: A Little Bit of Superbowl Humor

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ntDYjS0Y3w

For those of you on the other side of the pond, about to celebrate that American holiday (it really SHOULD be a holiday), the Superbowl, here’s a brilliant little VW commercial teaser to get you started. Because honestly, who watches the Superbowl for the football? I strictly watch for the commercials, and the food.

Enjoy!

I don’t know about you, but this is often how I’ve felt about New Year’s resolutions! :)

Happy New Year!

Friday Funnies: Black Friday Fun

As you’re out shopping today, (or in some cases, recovering from shopping all night), don’t do what you’re about to see in this video. Nothing is worth it….unless it’s a sale at Saks.

Enjoy!

Friday Funnies: Jimmy Kimmel

My reaction would probably have been the same if my parents ate my Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
