I found this article quite humorous. There were a few things in here that could only have been uttered or written by a British person. (The "biscuit" one comes to mind.)

It just makes me feel better knowing that there are plenty of stupid British people out there. Some British folk are so arrogant and uppity about how superior, intellectually, they are. Take THAT British people. HA! laughing



On another note, Aussies are apparantly cool people. (In both senses of "cool".)

There's a difference between actually being gooood, and thinking you're better than everyone else, love. 313


evillaugh


Edit- When it comes to academia, my wife thinks I am absurdly arrogant...because I always have to have the highest grade in all my classes...which the vast majority of the time, I do. no expression But, that's pretty much it. I'm a has been football player and I'm ugly with a shady sense of humor, at best. I don't see how that equates arrogance.

Sometimes they do dumb things but that's subject to opinion and has nothing to do with being British.

See, the basis of this thread only applies to a lot of Americans, who see British people as just 'British people'. It doesn't really make sense to me, since those people quoted could be from anywhere in Britain. I mean... of course 'British people' are stupid too... ever visited Camden, or Birmingham, or Manchester? A lot of people there are very, very stupid (no offense to those cities, and I know that makes me sound like a prejudice *******). But other areas, not so much.

What my exact point is, I don't know, but I'm sure I had one when I started typing.

I heard on the radio from a British person that if you are a citizen of the UK, you are called British first, and then things like "Glaswegian" second. Amirite?


I find the rudely arrogant Brits to be from East Midland, London, Eastern, and South East....and probably Northern Yorkshire....k...how about just England then.

Its not about dumbness. I worked in the hospitality industry for 7 years and I do know that disgruntled customers who cannot be happy (because they choose to be difficult) will do their utmost to get a refund.

They're not dumb. Just trying it on.

No. They're dumb.


There are stories JUST like this for Americans.


Would you EVER get pissed about there not being any air conditioning outside?


Would you ever think to talk down to an entire countries culture because they have a Siesta? That's retarded and arrogant at the same time. British to the max. Just so you don't think I'm pulling shit out of my ass, the Aussies rather dislike British people because of their uppity attitudes. They call them Whinging Poms.

This fits the definition perfectly:

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=winging+pom


Now, I'm not saying that all Brits are like this, cause they are not. Most of the ones who post here are quite cool. However, I've worked with Whinging Poms and they suck. It's always the Brits that are like that....I've never met another people that didn't fit the bill so well for a Whinging Pom in the work place. I thinks it's part of your culture. Just like it's part of American culture to have to get everything big and awesome and eat large portions.

laughing out loud Im not exactly British. Im half british half maltese. I understand where you are coming from, and I too had to defend culture against obtuse individuals who resorted to belligerent behaviour.

That should be the new topic of this thread, as it's far more interesting than 'tourist complaints'.

Beaches, sand or pebbles, which is superior?

Sand, for most things. If you are with the "walky on cold beach for miles looking at grey sea" type people I'd vote for pebbles though.

I like squishy sand between my toes.

I was in a little village along the coastline of Spain last year and the town was filled with fat, sun-burnt and loud British people. Almost all of them had an England jersey of either Beckham or Owen probably from a couple of years back, and they all had shaved heads.
