Since the poll didn't have a selection for "All of the Above" or (even better) "All Officers," I had to go with the most irritating twit of all, Munro. That narrow-minded, two-timing nitwit just irritated the hell out of me.

The sign read "Poms on Pushbikes Admitted Free". (not that I dislike Brits in general mind you - it was just funny)
Paazau, I recall reading that the original acronym was "POME" which stood for "Prisoner Of Mother England" (since all the original Anglo "settlers" were deported criminals from England).

I think all british officers in the movie were in same mission what Duncan put to words: Make the world england. And they were all doing their duties in their own way and could not be blamed for that. People who really were responsible for all war and killing were kings of England and France, and in larger scale all colonialists (spain, Holland etc.)

I hope that nobody thinks all Brits are ugly just because King George was. After all, he was really a German! At least the French had a French king!

Now that I think about it, George's ugliness had nothing to do with being German. George was ugly because...well, because...he was just ugly! "Beauty is only skin deep, while ugly goes straight to the bone!"

And...let's face it, those Frenchies are pretty alright; too bad they could never win a war!

Darn right. I hear redheads of German-Irish descent are particularly captivating.

Joan of Arc and Napolean won the French two different wars. And you see what they did to those to. That's gratitude for you.

Napoleon wasn't French! Seems to me "lay-fran-say" ended up losing that little conflict anyway...remember that little place called Waterloo?

Why she was referring to me, of course!
Red's got a bad case of envy.
Not that I blame her.

I'm the one with the envy problem? I meant real redheads . . . not wannabes. Not that I blame you for trying. . . .

I always thought redheads were simply mutant blondes.

Life's journey is not to
arrive at the grave safely
in a well preserved body,
but rather to skid in sideways,
totally worn out, shouting
'...holy sh*t ...what a ride!'

Well, not quite... Since this is a family-oriented forum, I won't go into any more details here; I'll just refer you to that wonderful poem by Redd Foxx, "Here's to the Redhead," if you are able to find it, that is.

There definately needs to be a "All Of The Above" option for this pole.
All the mentioned British were jerks!
