Paddington Bear vs Winnie The Pooh? That'd make an excellent Celebrity Deathmatch...

It was the Million Dollar Question on the US version of "WWTBAM":
"Where does Paddington Bear Come From?"
Silly woman didn't know. She is silly.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Marmalade is the British equivalent of marmalade. Don't Americans call what we call marmalade "jam", and call what we call "jam", er, something else. Crazy like?
Paddington's from Peru, BTW. He hard ethnic type!

No, we call marmalade "marmalade". Unless you have something called "marmalade" which is not ground-up jellied oranges (with the rind still included). And maybe the term is used the similar stuff that's not made of oranges. But the orange kind is most common, I believe.
Jam is similar, except it doesn't have bits of peel in it. And what the difference is between jam and jelly, I've never figured out. Over here, I mean. On your side of the ocean, "jelly" means gelatin (more common called by the brand name "Jell-O" over here, even if it isn't).

Paddington came from Darkest Peru, actually.

In a Celebrity Deathmatch between Winnie the Pooh and Paddington Bear, I do know who would win. But I bet five bucks that Piglet would be making sweet monkey love to the winner. Or Eyore would commit suicide because his Prozac prescription ran out.
Personally, I think Tigger is a crack head.

I really hope Rob Legato doesn't come here and reads this sick stuff. He'd probably tell everyone what's going on here and we'd never get replies to our emails anymore.

from my extensive observation of drug addicts at my night job, i can say that tigger is more likely to be a speedfreak that a crackhead. maybe even a candy raver. or a candyflip raver. much less likely a junkie, crackhead or stoner.
