It wouldn't be the first reveiw on the site that's region-specific. English/Irish/Kiwi/Aussies would get it, Nth Americans wouldn't.

I'd drop the "a". Shorter is better.

For me, the classic example is Obie's "It is a bird" for Supergirl. I couldn't understand why it had 123 votes.
Then I read a post in the Fourum by a British fwiffer that refered to a woman as a "bird" and then it finally understood the review.
North Americans prefer to call woman "dames" "broads" "chicks", not birds.

I agree with the consensus here - send the second one to Alan Smithee and be done with it.

No way. No review should go to Alan Smithee, but near duplicates are certainly not appropriate for 'him'.

Did you hear the one about the ice-cream seller found dead in his truck, covered in strawberry sauce and chocolate sprinkles?

Police believe he topped himself.


P.S. Go with the first review.
