ask a yank about america?

those that haven't just don't tell you that they have

 

Americans don't enjoy real tea...usually...they drink carbonated cold teas with corn syrup in it.

 

THAT'S NOT TRUE!!...it's not carbonated.

 

I'm sure your carcinogenic fluoridated water helps with that :drool:

Also, I've seen plenty of places in Britain serving no carbonated iced tea. In fact I can't find any carbonated iced tea here any more. It disappeared years ago. I quite liked it. Though nothing really beats a nice hot cup of Earl Grey....

 

This did make me chuckle.

 

Why are Americans a bit thick compared to Brits?

 

the curse of the irish seems to have crossed the english channel and the brits have small dicks too

 

To France?

 

the french have small penises too?

 

Apparently The English channel runs between England and France...

 

england, i suppose can be considered a norman colonial project of the french

 

And of the Romans, the Vikings, the Angles, the Saxons, the Jutes...

 

not a great track record there. ever wonder why the hell they all wanted it?

 

All those green hills, woody woods and beautiful women.

 

You should see the rest of Europe!

That and ... highest teenage pregnancy rates in Europe ... we gotta be good for something

 

souds like my high school. so many pregnant girls and teenaged moms there was a day care for their kids on campus....okay, so that's an exageration, but my high school had a certain reputation...

 

"Tea time", also known as dinner, is the biggest meal in our household, although if you just nip across the channel to France, lunch is the most important. For me it is a time where i can scoff tons of vegetables and feel good about it

A lot of Britons say they do, yes

No tornadoes here far as i know. It wont be long though, with all this global warming, from all those extra BIG cars

Britons can smell of many things, including aftershave, perfume, fish and chips, and in the case of that fat old moustached woman who leans in on you on the bus, B.O (body odour) and boiled cabbage

Welsh rarebit resembles cheese on toast or something, i think. I duno. I was born in Wales, but im vegan

Yes

Its easyish, but the minimum wage is terrible and God help you if you become ill and dont live in a decent area

To me, a lot of American accents are grating and irritating, especially in women. Theyre rather harsh, i find

 

Sorry, I just found this thread.

Bear in mind that I'm a Southerner (and a hillbilly to boot), and the South may as well be a different country. Come to think of it, we nearly were.

A typical Southern country breakfast:

Bacon
Sausage
Fried pork chops
Fried Eggs, about 4-6 per person
Biscuits
Gravy made from the meat drippings, a little flour, and milk
Fried Apples
Lots of butter for the eggs and biscuits, and jelly or jamb for the biscuits
Buttermilk and/or whole milk
Hot, strong black coffee

It's a big meal, but country folks get up early and work long and hard.

I don't work that hard (and I'm a vegetarian), so I usually eat a bowl of rice and some pickled vegetables, or some tabbouleh leftovers.


PS - Lithium and JOhn, y'all are having WAY too much fun with this.
