real talk, help me understand Britons

oh, i know about angostura... thanks for the correction though. so bitter is what, Ale or Lager? i can google it but we learn more thru people.

The US still largely thinks Dick Van Dyke in Mary Paaaaawpins is the epitome of Britishness.

Truth is I don't think anyone in this country was ever all his quips in one.

Can I recommend you yanks watch YouTube for Eastenders for East London stereotypes, Gavin and Stacey or The Only Way Is Essex to cover the middle ground of a large part of thr Country and clips of Ant and Dec or Coronation Street for up north.

That just about covers it.

Maybe last of the summer wine for the South West Coast.

FORGOT TO MENTION DRY GIN!

THANK YOU, YOU LIMEY BASTARDS.

:herestoyou:

Bitter beer is a well-hopped ale I suppose. Certainly not a lager. Bitter is brewed at ambient temperature with top fermentation, whereas lagers are cold brewed, with bottom fermentation.

That's my understanding, at least.

This is the sound of Britian on a Sunday night after you've had a roast dinner at 4pm. Youve had a bath, in fresh pj's drinking tea maybe eating a sandwich. It's 7pm. Time for this...

ive heard not all beer is served chilled? how prevalent is tepid beer in Europe though? figured that was more of an eastern europe thing

Gavin and Stacey

thank you kindly!

Peter Kay (probably the best British comexisn of the last 20 years)

loved that show. compare to an american counterpart like "saved by the bell", which was complete trash....

The Inbetweeners series or Friday Night Dinner is very apt for your typical Conservative/Republican type British family banter.

Rrrrrrrrrrichard!

Oh OH and robot warz!

Can't stand him, about as funny as a hole in the head mate.

Now you're talking, Keith Lemon - fucking hilarious!

He's a fucking gonk.

so many total class acts... Richard Dawkins is a beast... David Attenborough is another Demigod

Gary Lineker: "So Gordon, if you were England manager what formation would you go for?"

Gordon Strachan: " If I was English I'd top myself "

This prick has never ever made me laugh.

You want some Mickey Flanagan round here...

I’m English and particularly well travelled and I can offer you this:

In the U.K. you will meet mostly nice people and some twats.

Same as the rest of the world.

You tend to find what you are looking for.

Global rule of thumb - Nice/Twat ratio: 80/20

i SO FUCKING AGREE THE 80/20 ratio. that's bizaaaaarre that you've concluded the same

You get what you’re looking for, that ratio is exactly opposite if you’re a twat.

I forgot to mention. God bless The United States of America.
If I couldn’t be English, I’d choose to be American.

Much love cousins x
