Actually, British people are, in fact, fictional. The subject of many VERY widely believed urban myths (not unlike Nazi Germany) the British people are said to live in a quaint little set of islands somewhere beyond the edge of the known universe, shown in the map below: The myth can be traced back to the mid eighteenth century, when certain troublemaking members of the media (newspapers rarely reported solely truth in those days - and after the USA got it's start they were outright scandal sheets) got a bunch of farmers all riled up about taxes and colonies and some such noise. Pretty soon the majority of the population (even most women and children) were armed and trained in militias, ready to fight their oppressive government to the death for their right to tax each other instead. Only the majority of the population also lacked the vision offered only by time, and did not realize the British people were a complete fabrication by alarmist liberal media. In an effort to save face in light of this embarassment, the powers that be in our country strive tirelessly and selflessly around the clock to perpetuate the myth in all it's forms. They've even constructed a crude model (for the present time inhabited only by mock dummies) around some abondoned offshore oilrigs. Also, since they had all their weapons and spent money to hire shooting coaches and riding instructors and gunsmiths and all sorts of things the felt obligated to use them at LEAST once....so they decided to attack westward instead and take back America after it had be brutally conquered by the indians. But fortunately you now know the truth behind the myth, and you can include all british people under the classification of fictional people....it's all the same anyways. Yes, ALL real people say to-may-to, because thats the real way to say it.
pffft... tomahtoe. not tomaytoe. well.. i don't really give a fuck how people say it, as long as its understandable i guess... in britain noone ever ever calls it tomaytoe... in fact we use the word to take the piss outta yank accents lol. don't shoot the messenger, just kiddin
my summer favourite: sliced up tomaytoes in a bowl, with a little olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic and basil. Best salad ever.
