And you're responsible for half of them
WEll middle aged suburban americans are fat lol.There are tons of young people like myself who are americans and aren't fat.
a few english terms i'm not exactly familiar with:
take a leaf from (someone)'s book.- doesn't this mean just to look at said person and use an example they have set?
Bob's your uncle- explain....please.
something aside i too enjoy tea, even though i'm american. green tea preferrably though and just sugar, no dairy.
also, do you formally use sugar cubes for your tea? here in america it is usually found in little packets, formal or not.
Being wise comes in two parts: 1) having a lot to say and 2) not saying it.
Thanks to Starry Relm and Sphere for the Sig and Avatar (in their respecive order)
take a leaf from (someone)'s book - Thats like..look up to them and follow there footsteps..?
Bob's your uncle - I dont know! Its like.. its something good.."and Bob's your uncle!" i have said it..
do you formally use sugar cubes for your tea? - hell no, waaay to posh for me!
Questions for the Brits:
1.Why is David Beckham so overpaid jsut for kicking a ball accross the field?
2.What is it like living on an island?
3.Why do you guys have such horrible teeth?
4.Why do black british sound so weird I mean I'm american and black but I have a low pitch voice why are there voices in britain so dang high pitched!!!!!!
Bob's your uncle! is an additional part of a sentence, when you do someting that you've just got the gist of, or your concocting a plan, you wham it on the end.
Like: You'll sneak around the back of that house, and grab all that jewelery, and Bob's your uncle!
Plus, most English have a large affaection for the name Bob

3. Which sport is more important American Football, basketball or baseball? It depends who you ask. Baseball > all, though.

6. Do all people in the suburbs really have American flags outside their houses? Many do, many others do not.
7.Is the BBC available on cable? Usually. we have different cable tv providers in different parts of the country and each one chooses what to offer. Some offer BBC, some do not. I don't have cable because I refuse to pay $50 a month just to watch tv.
Do you need a book to understand Eastenders??
Is Eastenders about five years behind for you Americans??

Most Blacks people in Britain come from jamacia and co and it's an evolution of that accent.

...I am here as a 'guest' of Bert - & may join this Community by the by - !
- My Yahoo! ID is 'nov1963leo' : Look me up - ! That's my personalized LaunchCast Station ID also - !... :
...I am interested in Anglo-American relations, & would like to respond to the Questions here...I know it's a long Thread here already - so please pardon if my answers are repetitive - !...;
1. Root Beer is disgusting only if you don't like sickly sweet Pop Drinks generally.
...It also depends much on the brand & how well it's done, you see...It's a bit like Sarsparilla & derives (originally & w/ Natural brands, anyway...) from some sort of natural root. Here in North New England (extreme northwest U.S.) A&W Root Beer is the king of Root Beers. Put vanilla ice cream in it for a 'float'...
...Couldn't you just Google this stuff, btw - ?!?!...
2. ...corn dogs are, however, utterly disgusting - this is true.
3. More rapes reportedly happen during the American Football 'Superbowl' than @ any other time...& when our government declares War - which essentially an entertainment program for the 'CNN' so-called 'News' Network...
4. Answered already...
5. Wal-Mart is larger than Bill Gates, & threatens to consume us all. Stop the Borg now - !!!...
6. Since 9/11, the flag thing is completely out of hand - ! Red, White & Blue is the new Black, as cartoonist Tom Tomorrow of 'This Modern World' has pointed out...
...I'm used to defending us Yanks against Brits talking about Ronald Reagan & Cowboys alll the time when we ain't all like that!; But since 9//11 & W - I don't have a leg to stand on anymore - !!!...Thatcher did win by a landslide, though - did she not - ?...
7. Poor people like me don't have cable, & get some British stuff on PBS, thank God Almighty - !...In the current Conservative climate, I doubt something like Python could be broken on it now, I would assert - !...
ok....lets end this evil argument!!!
we, the british are pompas stuck up ninnies who are a bit wet and have no power left
the americans are selfish, petrol gusling, plant destroying hillbillies.
do we all feel better?
i do!

Here I am to save the day!
1. I have no idea however he is no longer our problem
2. Meh, it's easier to get near the sea and we get a lot of wind from the west
3. i told you, i cant be bothered to clean them
4. Dunno, ive never actually talked to a Brittish black guy were im from there are very few black guys

I've always wondered if like, the same way we hear British people talk different, and then when they sing we think they sound the same as us...does it work the same way for you guys when we talk and sing?
