Err, I was being vaguely humerous with my write up.
Well trying to be. Being half German that's a pretty well impossible for me, but I try none the less...

From a poll that rates Belgium as funnier than Britain?
"Commenting on Britain’s poor showing in the survey Mr Price said the international perception of the UK was a country whose people were uptight and reserved." Really?..
To be honest, I find both Brits and Germans funny mainly because they actually have a very similar sense of humour; both like word games like puns etc. And both have a love of a good groaner.
That kind of stuff doesn't translate well hence why other nations don't get it.
