Coupling

Recently in my ECE 307 (Electric Field and waves) lab, my lab partners were discussing this British sitcom called 'Coupling' (see, we do work :P). They were praising it like crazy so I knew that I had to get my hands onto it and boy I wasnt let down. I think I can safely say, British comedy beats any other, hands down. This show is about 6 people (like always) and their relationships. Its more of a male vs female perspective of the same event that has taken place and it makes one hell of a show. Dripping in sexual comments, this one's not for the kids, not that they would understand a lot of it anyway, actually u never know with kids these days.

Theres one character on the show by the name of Jeff and is a very spaced out person but a treasure of one-liners, like Joey if you may, only not as lucky with women. Some of his quotes:

-'Women remember, Steve. It's like they've got minds of their own.'
-'Oh, wouldn’t that be great...being a lesbian. All the advantages of being a man, but with less embarrassing genitals.'
-'Maybe women are completely different when we’re not with them. Maybe they’re not cross all the time.'
-'Having a girlfriend is like legalized sex.'
-'Sex can be very stressful for men. You judge us on technique, sensitivity, stamina...we're just happy if you're naked...half naked...one breast'
-'Steve, you know what the sentence of death is don't you? I don't mean the sentence of death like in executions and stuff, I mean the scary one. Just five words Steve. Five little words..."where is this relationship going"?'
-'I am grappling with the most ancient dilemma of man. She likes me, but which end?'
-'It's funny watching you putting your clothes on. It's like the opposite of good.'
-'There's a supermodel who shags total prats and I don't know where she lives!'

Did I mention I really like this show :D?

On a diff note, might head to Chicago for a day during the Thanksgiving break, hopefully it'll turn out good.
