There is more culture in an empty yogurt tub than with that lot of cretins.
All single figure IQ.
They are the ones that Charles Darwin missed.
Lock up your daughters!!
I always thought that the USA should have had a couple of bombing missions over Europe as well as Japan. It might have just wiped out a few of these mutations.

Those kind of people go by a lot of different names in a lot of different countries. Here, they're rednecks no matter what part of the country they're from. I hope they are trying to be ironic.
U.K. = chavs, I think.
A lot of preoccupation with expectoration. Why is that? Also, Army, what is that stuff on a stick they're stuffing in their gobs? Is it ice cream or some sort of meat product?
Funny video in an "I'm glad I'm not them" sort of way.
