You know you're British when...

[Woodsey]

You know you're British when everyone you meet classifies themselves as English, Scottish or Welsh and refuses to acknowledge the existence of Britain.

 

[ScoopMeister]

You know you're British when you sound like this guy:
You know you're British when you are offended by American sports.
You know you're British when you've given up giving a crap about the weather.
You know you're British when you still think that your country is the most powerful in the world.

 

[Karlosdj86]

you are British when you know that EVERY other nation on the planet hates you... and you couldn't care less

 

[Alfador_VII]

You know you're British when you fling off your clothes at the first sign of sunshine.

And turn Beetroot Red in about half an hour

 

[G96 Saber]

You know your British when you laugh at American "Football" players wearing so much padding.

PS. you also know your British when you complain at Americans calling pussy rugby football.

 

[Bassik]

When you are having what seems like the billionth cup of tea and watching classic Doctor Who making my way through all of the Jon Pertwee era Doctor Who DVD's I own. A nice relaxing day

But... I am Dutch! And it wasn't Pertwee at all, but McCoy!
You are up to something, aren't you...?

 

[neoptolemus]

... you are from england

England isn't the only British country ya know, even though they like to pretend it is.

Ti'n gwybod ti'n Prydeinig pan ti'n siarad Cymraeg!

You know you're British when you're a FUCKING MANIAC ON THE ROAD. Seriously. I just got back from vacation in London this morning, you people are insane. It's amazing there aren't a dozen crashes at every roundabout every ten seconds.

 

[Artina89]

When this becomes a reality.

That is awesome /quote]
And yet so true.

I aim to make it my life's motto. most problems can be solved over a cup of tea

 

[Kernow Chris]

When you pronounce vowels properly.
When you wake up and the first thing you want is a cuppa rosie.
When football is actually a sport you play predominantly with your feet.

 

[UnderNineThousand]

...when a 1 degree temperature change causes 'too bloody cold' to become 'too bloody hot'.
...when an inch of snow cause the country to die.
...when you don't need to kick Cheryl Cole off talent show panels.

 

[G96 Saber]

Have you ever been to Italy?

 

[Booze Zombie]

You know you're British when you're called British and you go "no, actually I'm from-".

[Nimcha]

When you use 'could of' or any variation thereof.

Or being extremely xenophobic.

Actually, thats Japan.

OT; You know you are British when...you have a barbecque at 10 degrees outside.

Well at least the Japanese are less vocal about it...

 

[El Poncho]

When your fellow Scot says they aren't British and you tell them to keep quiet and have some tea

 

[MarsProbe]

You know you're British (or maybe just Scottish, for this particular example) when...

I mean, priorities people! Drag this country out of the pit it's in first, then you can go around building silly sculptures to your hearts content.

Funny, I saw an ad for some film that was going to be shown on that 5 US channel. According to the words on screen, the ad was the "Polite British Version", in which any "strong" words were beeped over. We were then invited to watch the full film on 5 US, if we were interested in hearing all the "American" swear words.

Polite you say? Sounds like someone has never actually paid a visit to this fair isle, by the sounds of things.

You went to London and decided it was a good idea to drive? It's hardly surprising you had a bad experience. Use the public transport in London; it's extortionate but so much better than driving.

 

[Popadoo]

...when you gently pat your mouth with the corner of your mouth with a handkerchief after spitting on a peasant lady before then tipping your top hat to her.
I do the last bit sometimes.

Words of truth right there. You know you're British when you frequently call your best mate a c*nt.
