things you hate with a passion

There's a city called Howey-in-the-Hills in Florida.

The "upon Tyne" is unnecessary and pretentious.

That's why no-one says "upon tyne".
They either say "Tyneside" or "Newcastle"

I dislike the British [empire] for the same reasons I dislike the current American [empire]. The difference is the pretentious sounding overtones on all British stuff, add on top of it all the royalty bs.

I wish the Scottish had kicked Britain's ass back in the day.


FREEEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOM!

@jage
What the fuck are you on about?
Are we rebelling against Britain? I thought that ended 200 years ago?

same with Ireland then?

so send money to the IRA so they can kill random people like a typical American retard with his head well an truly entrenched in Hollywood's shitty backside.

Also if the Scottish kicked Britain's ass the the scotts would have very sorry bottoms indeed.

There was a program at my old work where we got some annoying British kids as interns. They were pretty rowdy and always told everyone how much they hated America and Americans. They all got deported because they got violent, attempted to vandalize the work premises and also planned to do some things that could have caused serious harm to a lot of people. It was their last day, so I think that they assumed that they'd be home before they got caught. It was pretty funny.

We apologise for having SOME pretentious sounding stuff. We thoroughly apologise for actually having some fucking history and culture. We'll try harder next time.

The bill to change it McNewcastle should go straight through, don't you worry yourself.

American cities are named after ones that already exist somewhere else, by the colonists. That could be said to be pretentious.

Yeah, like Milwaukee and Topeka.

Anyway so fuck American. You like shortening things and simplifying things. Simple people simplify.

I can call you simple for speaking English. One of my native tongues is more complex than your language. Besides, the Cherokee language is more complex than any currently spoken European language.

I would expect no less of the average Brit.

Every American I've met has started off, without me even saying anything, implying that I'm pretentious somehow or going against someone's freedom somehow.

You take pride in being with the times but you seem to be lost in the 1700's somewhere.

IRA?

I would be prefectly happy if Hollywood went away. But you can't tell me Britain is any better. I've watched the Green Street Hooligans

If they were average Brits, then the average Brit must be extremely stupid and pretentious. I'd actually have a hard time naming 10 people that I've met who were more annoying, ignorant and childish than them.

 

[SentinelSlain]

There are a great many cunts in Britain, but most Americans are full of bullshit that was set about in rebelling against Britain. The problem is you're a bit of a retard if you can't see how ridiculous that is nowadays.

¿Cúando veniste a los estados unidos ano de toro?

 

[Omni]

I don't have anything against the British. Tons of them come to Florida, and most of the ones that I've met have been very polite and friendly people. The ones that I was talking about earlier are just a good example of people who are clearly faggots and can't accept the fact that the Revolutionary War was over 300 years ago. I was just making it clear that not only Americans act that way, and I've actually never met any Americans who do.

 

[Vimana]

All the British people I met in NYC, Ocean City, and Hong Kong were awesome.

 

[False Joe]

And I'm sure there's a fair amount of yanks that would come over here and complain about how shit britain is, get rowdy and wreck shit.
There's twats in every nation.

 

[SentinelSlain]

Actually most anti American sentiment in the UK is to do with a distaste for the special relationship and anti war feelings.

Yeah, under Bush -Blair some British people felt like they weren't free from America.

This song pre-dates that period in time but it demonstrates a similar thing.

Have any of you Brits seen the Canadian show "Talking to Americans" ?

I remember why I disliked that band now, and it doesn't have anything to do with their lyrics. I just find them to be a really dumbed-down example of their genre.
