Default The English Culture...
just fascinates me.. the language, like how they say "arse" instead of ass, "bloke" instead of dude, their love for Tea instead of Coffee...

and I also noticed when I go to the bookstore and peruse the English magazines, they always have boobies!!

The English seem a lot more uptight than American culture... here in the U.S. the sight of even a little boobie and some jackass starts protesting, calling lawyers...

Which is healthier: tea or coffee?

I prefer coffee.

Yeah, their mags are aloud to display the tops...

I've met some great Englishmen as I have my own hommies.

America is the land of lawsuits :-/. If you give someone an asswhoopin he deserves you usually get sued off your arse.

England is the coolest country on earth innit right mate.

In England pints of beer are 4oz more right cos American beer is gnats' piss innit. Piss and water right the self proclaimed king of beers innit. Right now I've set the yanks straight on what matters right, I'm off to make a brew.

Oh yeah, we're fine with showing graphic violence around the clock on the TV but God forbid as soon as someone catches sight of a nipple people start rioting like a class of grade school kids when someone rips a loud fart in class

We usually take on whatever comes out of America, and the lawsuit culture is getting stronger every day.

So thanks!

England is just a place you might be unfortunate enough to land in, on your way to Scotland, Ireland or Wales.
