Media I love

Living overseas, I am blocked from watching videos on numerous sites based in the US. An annoying message pops up while the video is trying to load that says “Sorry this content is not available in your area”. I will not even begin to try to understand why… but it is very frustrating and incomprehensible to my logic. It keeps me from seeing news clips, movie trailers, etc.
A site that *never* does this is YouTube, and I totally dig it. Finding old music from my childhood, watching excerpts of my favourite films, keeping up with hilarious incidents like the Sarah Silverman/Jimmy Kimmel “feud”, I can spend hours and hours here.
Another site that does not block us “foreigners” is Ellen Degeneres’ TV show site. I LOVE Ellen. If I were a lesbian, she would be my dream girl. As I am a flaming heterosexual, she is my dream best friend. I have never seen anyone so funny in my entire life. Her show never fails to make me laugh out loud. I think she is a comic genius. I worship and adore her. She even manages to make me like people I think I hate (such as when she had Jenna Bush call up GW at the White House). I admire her intelligence and subtlety. Watch how she handles this total nutcase who is actually an elected politician, a representative from Oklahoma, which should scare every American on the planet “more than terrorism, more than Islam” to quote this total wackjob.

American Humour

Although everyone often jokes that I am more French than the French, I know that deeep-down, I will always be American when it comes to my sense of humour. This video cracks me up and I can't get enough of it, but I doubt that most of my French friends would get it...
The Jimmy Kimmel/Ben Affleck response is also funny, but not as much as this original zinger.
