We can always count on Russell Brand to give us a gem of a quote when we need a pick me upper–and since he is British–we can more easily accept his knocking down of English-sponsored celebrations.
“China did such a great job. We are too clumsy, we are too self-effacing as you know with the English the politeness masks deep sexual deviance. I think we are under a lot of pressure, because China were clearly able to demonstrate the opening ceremony that ‘we can make all these people do the exact same thing at once – don’t you dare get in a war with us.’
Brand added injury to insult: “I like England and I am from there. But when it involves organization it is going to be a right balls up. Things will catch fire and people will be tripping over things, then it start raining and the Queen will do a fart.”
Russell must not have watched the Royal Weddings and the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations because those went off pretty much without anyone catching on fire or the Queen letting out a fart–well, as far as we could tell on our TVs.
