I grew up playing Runescape and I’ve chatted with enough british people over voice enough times to know the truth.
*soccer.
Why are there so many pictures of the specific guy on the bottom used when making fun of the UK? Is he a celebrity or influencer I’m unaware of?
What Brits actually look like
So like… The US of Europe?
Almost, they know how to queue.
Something something apple, tree…
Something something shit, asshole…
Simple as, innit bruv?
Are… are Brits the Americans of Europe???
America’s founding was a bunch of British rejects and people deemed “too annoying for Europe”, along with their kidnapped, angry slaves.
Where do you think Americans learned to be so cultured?
Which Americans are we talking? Because a Yooper, Scots-Irish Appalachian, Cajun Louisianan, and some poor bastard from Baker California have little in common. Hell I’m a Southern Californian Redneck and frankly if I have to interact with my Northern Californian ilk I’m stabbing someone and dumping their corpse in an open mine shaft.
I’m from Jersey, which I call the California of the East coast (just tiny), and despite our size, the differences between north, central, south, northwest, west, Hudson/Essex, shore, are all incredibly well defined. I always get a kick out of folks from outside the US lumping all of us together. Like, I can’t even lump myself in with people 50 miles in literally any direction.
Yes.
All of them I think? The Anglo Saxon culture still dominates and founded the basis of American culture itself.
The foundational European culture of California is Spanish.
While that may be true it’s very much in the same way that Roman culture is the basis and founding of Modern Romantic cultures. It’s to degrees and the more derived and hybridized the individual cultures are the more distant they become, not even accounting for cultural drift by time alone.
But I will also note that I don’t think the US has a united culture and what is often seen as a Pan American culture is moreso a side effect of the post World Wars migration, the migrations of the great depression/dust bowl, and the yuppies migrating about creating a rough amalgam culture that often out populates the older more divergent regional cultures. Basically if you think of a cultureless suburbanite that’s the thing I’m talking about. Also I think mass media reinforced the whole thing.
I mean, Americans are a large and diverse group of people… But yes.
Seeing people through movies vs tourists.
They could be from the same British town
Gotta be more specific. Scot, Irish, English or Welsh?
It is the same guy though. What a proper suit can do to a person.
familiarity breeds contempt
Slaps on calculator
How Europeans see Americans.
ERR: DIV/0
They seem very divisibled right now.
Humans are traditionally endurance hunters, running things down.
This should have prevented run-away belly fat storage like that.
The Starch Runner Hypothesis seems more plausible to me.
