All very true, I can't stand default american spell checkers, drives me nuts. At work they have office installed with an american locale and it doesn't store settings between uses, so every damn time I use word I have to change the default dictionary to British or it "corrects" all my British spellings... very very annoying.socialmenace42 said:
Yes, you are correct there.this isnt my name said:
It even makes it even more surprising that American's worship the damn woman, when us brits hate every single fibre of her being. Hell, she even stole the kiddies school milk to save some public spending. If that isn't a sign of a cold hearted ***** then i don't know what is (which got her the nickname Margaret thatcher, the milk snatcher).
I'm just glad that I wasn't in my twenties in the 80s, then I would of known about it, with all the taxes, and all the other shit that thatcher threw on young British people.
You know you're British When....
...you go abroad and instead of trying to speak the language you point at what you want saying it in english slower and louder.
...you are watching Sport and your National team always loses.
...you realise that every other country hates you.
...you can't buy petrol...because its too expensive.
...you hate unemployed people because you know you are essentially giving them money through taxation.
...getting absolutely smashed on a weekend is the "normal" thing to do and trying to be more continental and drinking a moderate amount in a relaxing atmosphere doesn't feel "right".
...your favourite native food... is a curry.

LLanidloes has all this and it's only a little village in Mid Wales... Granted every year there's a fancy dress event that has thousands of people coming to town from all over the country to get drunk when most of this happens.LuckyClover95 said:Yup! Yarmouth fo sho.T8B95 said:
You know you're British when you GET FREE HEALTHCARE
You know you're British when you have your friends, and your pub crew friends. (I'm 16 so this isn't entirely true yet, however I do have a few pub friends and I know my family certainly have friends and pub friends.)
You know you're British when EVERYTHING can be done with tea.
You know you're British when you've complained about the weather every month of the year.
You know you're British when (true story, saw it on the news) everyone is trying to get a holiday to Libya because 'it's cheap right now.'
You know you're British when at least 2 female teenage acquaintances are pregnant.
You know you're British when you've been drunk in a park multiple times (a young British tradition, classy aren't we.)
You know you're British when every city has one, infamous, knifing and violence road.
You know you're British when you're taking the piss out of the French ;D KIDDING GUYS
You know you're British when...
You see unicorns randomly everywhere.
You scream at people to put 'u's in words like favourite.
You spend twenty minutes teaching people to say SHEDULE not SKEDULE.
You don't think you're better than everyone else, you know it.

When you moan about it being too bloody cold or too bloody hot.
When everyone strips off if there's an inch of sun, thinking it won't rain at some point during the day.
...There's nothing funnier than seeing girls go outside wearing two teabags over their nipples, a leaf over there private parts then start shrieking and running when the sun turns into rain.
When you know the impressions other countries do of us is piss poor and so untrue.
When you apologise because someone ran you over and you put a dent in their car.
Ah, and when you get annoyed at spell checker trying to correct your words to the American version. LEAVE ME ALONE.

I can believe that, Britian is Britain whether small village or major city.Genericjim101 said:LLanidloes has all this and it's only a little village in Mid Wales...
