Quote:
"With sayings from characters in shows such as Little Britain and the Catherine Tate Show providing us with more and more contemporary slang, we thought we needed to reflect this."
When I read this quote, I thought it must be sarcastic. Or have we gotten so pathetically pop-culture-oriented that we look to television shows to teach us slang, instead of actual real-life conversation?
It adds an interesting dimension to the "art imitates life" or "life imitates art" debate. In this case, I guess it's art imitating art masquerading as life.
