Ah, I can't understand most of the humor of the English language. I haven't been talking the language, or making any efforts to learn the double entendres and wordplay. Quite a pity. I can understand some of the stand up humor of Seinfeld, Carlin, Hicks, but I'm lost as soon as 'obscure' humor is on.
I'll probably enjoy Break Up on the same basis as the others. The jokes will fly over my head, so to speak.
