Neener Miss Cow proves once more that she doesn't understand men at all
despite her loud mouthed braggadocio otherwise.
The programs are supposed to be about being GRUMPY and by this measure the
men clearly understood what the program was about far better than the women.
Clue:Deadpan humour is harder to pull off for those too enamoured by the
CAMERA!

Aha so now Miss Cow is claiming that men are incapable of self-deprecating
humour and that 'grumpy old' women have the monopoly on this.
A pity the poor old cow hasn't noticed that most men have being doing this
the rest of their post adolescent lives!
