Brits

There is the start, and end to all your problems.

 

well they’re the OG’s

 

That's merely annoying. Letting your kids run wild on the plane is borderline terrorism.

 

While I classified it as annoying, it is annoying AS FUCK!!

 

TIL the brits still use miles even though they are on the metric system

 

It's generational too. People my MIL's age still default to Imperial but youngs prefer metric.

Also they measure fuel efficiency in MPG even though you buy fuel here in litres.

 

Bush's best album is 224 pounds.

 

Also a stone, which you use to measure how much people way, is 14 pounds.

 

This is what happens when you serve baked beans with breakfast.

 

I suppose we do a little of that here with liter bottles but still guys get it together

 

It's very funny to be that cow milk is in pints and vegan milk is in liters

 

No baked beans slander pls

 

This maybe should go in the unpopular opinions thread but baked beans are way too mediocre to be as ubiquitous as they are. And for breakfast, christ.

 

I find the baked beans odd but I'll still eat them. A soggy semi-grilled half-of-a-tomato I find offputting. Especially when the rest of the Full English is like a sausage, another sausage, a blood sausage, bacon, and a sunny side up egg.

 

Brits also treat a 2 hour drive like it’s the equivalent of driving from LA to NY

 

Does the European Union even want them back?

 

I was in the Cayman Islands last month and rented a car. Right hand drive, KMH only on dash, drove on left side of road. Everywhere was pretty much 25 or 40, but it just said the number inside a red circle. I just assumed it was KMH cause Brits. I’d get passed constantly and was like “man no one even comes close to following speed limit”. Halfway through the week we went through construction and they had one of those signs that flashed messages. Said something like “construction zone 25 mph” or something. Then I realized I had been driving 15 mph in the 25 zone and fucking 25 in the 40. Surprised no one got mad at me. Even when I was doing 60 in the middle of nowhere thinking I was going 20 over, I wasn’t even going the 40 mph speed limit

They also used imperial gallons at the gas stations

 

The harrowing journey from London to Newcastle is basically setting out on the Oregon Trail.

 

I drive that far 3 days a week

 

LNER babyyyyyy

 

I drove from Peterborough to Cardiff and back in one day and basically was treated like I'd done this.

 

They are a perfect breakfast role player imo. Saying that, zero chance I would ever make them myself at home.

 

They really nailed the teeth in Austin Powers. That movie is so good.

 

That news lady really is as stereotypical as it gets. She literally has to talk around her teeth.

 

Can't believe you never came for a cup of tea

 

This was back in 2016 when I was less online about living here. Missing you when I went thru the Brecon Beacons last year was less excusable

 

Also RIP Sinead O’Connor

 

Not British

 

"The album title comes from a real life experience. Sixteen stone translates to 224 pounds, allegedly the weight of a young woman who catfished one of Rossdale's friends via a personal ad."

 

I figured as a Welsh you’d have more affection for formerly colonized Celts.

 

I do, that's why I'm pointing it out

 

Lol

 

Where I’ve been maps been circulating on UK subs today, so here’s mine, aside from forgetting I’ve been to Cardiff and so I’ve visited Glamorgan and passed through Gloucester and Gwent

 

Did you find a weekend in Wales to book?

 

Not yet; wife and I are taking a week off at the end of September but probably going to Isle of Wight or Scotland

 

Basically next door to each other

Spoiler

in FREEDOM UNITS

 

We here on Renewable Energy Island are all going to die for short term profits and because rich wankers don’t want wind farms on their coastal views.

 

What’s the skyline chili supposed to be
