While kinda true, I have to ask. Are you a lib or gay. According to your protege Spoke - libs hate America. You seem to bash the good ole USA quite a bit

Quad - you forget that he has one of them Porschuh's with a real hand brake and no hill assist. He enjoys the tactile sensation of said item while doing 360's either in the Dr's parking lot or while out cruising to count the number of 991's that have not sold in South Florida. THATS why he goes through his racing MPSC's in 8000 miles..

Agreed no matter which hole its coming out of.

Listen, before Palm or Spoke head off on a xenophobic tirade to throw personal insults at me or call me a **** star (although I kinda like that one), if its not obvious, my tongue is firmly in my cheek.

Many Americans seem to consider the upper-class mannerisms of British males as gay, so I'm not surprised at your question. Being much more enlightened as a culture, we Brits see the ape-like mannerisms of American manly-men as what they are: predictive of their stupidity, not their sexuality.
And whilst the rest of the civilised world (that is to say, western Europe minus France, and the UK minus Northern Ireland) does tend to lean more in line with US democrats/liberals, I suggest that is only because they haven't lived and worked here. After a few decades, if any Euro/UK expats living in the US aren't swayed to the side of conservatism, it's because they've either left the country or are blithering idiots.


Equally obvious that it isn't your facial cheek.

I never knew you were a Brit. That explains a lot. Are you like this in real life or just on the internet?

he can not help it. Unfortunately some of the stereotypes about brits can be seen in his responses. The brits are living off past imperial glories, giving them a false sense of superiority.

Hopefully other stereotypes are not true, i.e. horrific teeth, shower once a month.
I guess we'll never know.

Just joking, I love the brits, their food is awesome!

rodsky

You are kidding - right? Their food is ok at best

I do like the Brits but they are for the most part living out glories from many years back.

The Brit stereotypes definitely do come through in his posts. I'm sure he over does it here for effect and to get a reaction.

I've been to England 3 times and have thoroughly enjoyed the country and the people. I have a buddy who was a Royal Marine; a very bright and entertaining guy. Nationality aside, some folks are simply bad-mannered. I wouldn't paint all Brits with the same Palm-brush....

Brits are cool.......but mainly wet 9 months a year

Quite a bit of stone-throwing from the sub-arctic glass "hoose" isn't it?

Canada is rather like the spoilt child who, never having had to actually fend for itself, it takes for granted the support and protection of its amicably-divorced parents, mistaking for entitlement what is in fact beneficence grounded in the guilt of having birthed a hapless and slow-witted offspring.

"Hoose"?
Seriously?

Mumbles

Born in the UK and having lived there for thirty years you can't argue about the rain ol chap !
So C'mon Palm, stop watching Jackanory, put on your Blue Peter Badge, and spend $ 20.00 to join the club. It just seems so fitting if you ask me !

krysFly

I was kidding...actually its bloody awful, maybe except most popular British food eaten today...curry.

Mumbles

Can't beat a good curry !

limey940

Im a brit that grew up on curry...but having gone back a few times over the last couple of year i would have to say, that at there is some terrific food in the UK, our last trip was london and up the west coast of scotland, and isle of Sky. had some very memorable meals......nothing as good as here in Charleston, but thats a pretty high bar

I suspect you mean that your British with India roots? Indian food is absolutely our favorite. We can actually get it here in Nashville if you can believe it. Restaurant is close to the hospital...go figure.
