Confirming the British stereotype (Part one: England) - Comments

This is hilarious.
Most of these are also transferred over Australia too. Especially the bus one. I got off at the wrong stop and instead of turning around and getting back on the bus I walked home. Same when I got the wrong bus. Just walked home from a reasonable distance.

@ kitsch
bahaha I was a bit worried someone would be offended, because well, someone's always offended! But so far so good.

@ Kinki Jinki
That's what happens, the British-ness will seep into your soul haha.

@ antidote.
Hello! Never apologise for keeping people updated on the weather :)

This is like the "you know you're in my town" thread only 10000x better and more informative.

I´ve been here for like 2 months and I already find myself apologising for everything and my accent that used to be american-ish (Im a native portuguese speaker and I learned english mostly from the media) is slowly turning into a british accent xD

This blog is just pure greatness! I'm from the south east, West Berkshire to be exact.

The weather point is just so accurate. I even made a blog about the weather earlier and my excuse was, I'm British, it's what we do!

@ castiel's vessel
but to be fair, that sounds like a bloody good blog.

I found myself agreeing with every single one! I'm from the land of sheep, there are so many "Welshisms" and slang words that only we understand, I would probably be here all week trying to remember them all. But I may make a blog. Any other Welshies out there? I've only met two on here so far XD

@ raw.
You're kidding me. HELLO. Why are you Midlanders crawling out of the woodwork? Go back right now and stop showing me up.

@ house of cards.
The Welsh one would probably be about how they're crap at football and can only redeem themselves in rugby, and that half the villages and towns can't even be pronounced by its own citizens.

@ castiel's vessel
baha I couldn't possibly comment on that (see how I shamelessly skirt the issue because I'm a coward)

@ house of cards.
You should! Oh and could you possibly let me know if you do in case I miss it? I'm curious :) Even though you hate the English bahaha

@ castiel's vessel
My Scottish one is pretty much that we hate the English, love kilts and get drunk as often as possible.

West Midlands too, woo! *Waves arms in a crazy manner* I love this blog so so much haha.

@ archipelago.
Yeah, it must be, although you never see it on American grammars and it's just like are they all rude??

@ house of cards.
I would make a Welsh one but it'd probably be all about sheep (plus the fact that I'm actually English and not Welsh by birth ).

"You don't leave the table until everyone's finished eating." Omg I thought it was only my family that made us do this!

Ditto. I'm turning 20 in November and I still ask my parents for permission to leave the table.

This is all so true. I'm going to make a Scotland one of these tomorrow, it'd such an ace idea!

@ Derek's Wolf Angel
haha thanks!

@ northern lights;
You're a fellow midlander? We're a rare breed on here! Well you're not alone in that, I swear I've only ever seen old people tell the driver they want the next stop.

This is awesome

I live in the West Midlands too! And I've done the bus thing before too, luckily it wasn't that far but it was cold and dark :') These are all so true it's hilarious.

@ zisteau.
Really? That's so awkward and brilliant! I also like when you go the wrong way down a street and have to check your phone like you got a text before you turn around...

@ castiel's vessel
it's really just good manners right? At least I think so haha.

BLESS THIS BLOG OH MY GOD
Fun fact: Most of this is true in America too.
Especially the shops. If you go in the wrong shop, too bad. You stick around til a worker asks to help, then you can go.
