British stereotypical views ironed out.

no I dont think that wearing a dead frenchmans teeth would have made you much weaker you would still be annoyed , but I suppose this may have led to a interest in dentisty which may have led to the ultimate decline .

 

i still maintain my theory that napolean stirred an interest in dentistry by planning the defeat of his forces where dentures would then be extracted from dead soldiers at waterloo which has brought us from the point of the sun never setting on the british empire to now on foggy days, it doesn't shine

future historians will record napolean's genius as the ultimate victor at the battle of waterloo

 

Its the sort of thing the french would do , but I feel its more happenstance than a plan .

 

i can't really think of any other stereotypes.

 

sang froid
at one time this country was world famous for sang froid or cold blood thats not showing emotion in times of crisis, well actually ever.

Sadly this is a thing that may be dying out with continental ways creeping in to the country .

Say for example your leg is blown off, a gentleman wouldnt make a big thing of such a injury and if he was to mention it at all he might say "oh my leg appears to be blown off" ,and a another gentleman seeing this would say "yes it appears it has" .

Now I suppose if this happened today people would run around like chinese lifeboat drill making a big thing out of it blubbering and yabbering and such like, and not logically and calmly dealing with the problem of the leg.

Personally I think we made a mistake joining the european community , also I may say some of the blame should be put on american tv

 

This is because you only need one type of tea; proper tea. The stuff that doesn't really have a name. When you ask someone "what sort of tea are you brewing there?", they'll say "PG Tips" or "Yorkshire Tea" or "what?"

Earl Grey always tasted too herby to me.

 

I love tea, wine, Jazz, and being fucked on the weekends. I live up to my sig. picture as being a dignified drunk.

I wish I was the British Stereotype.:tongue:

 

I also live up to my sig

 

What doth thou speaketh? Myself and mye friendes do.

Listen not to him.

 

I hope one day that the world can see that I am not Monopoly man and his car we English live in houses and have moved on from victorian days. We drink tea because we borrowed tea from India some hundred years ago but got to like it.

Coffee is mostly what we drink due to nestle being provider of Nescafe and Kraft being creator of Maxwell House.

I know that many Europeans think us Brits are monopoly men in a car, but really we are just as well off as France.

 

Yeah, we're more like the thimble of Europe.

 

still, it would be really really funny to deliberately enact all the proper brit stereotypes just to fuck with people's heads. i like playing the trailer trash redneck quite a lot.

 

What is this I hear about Britain having a dry wit? What is a wit anyway because I don't get it?

 

wit is a sense of humor. you know, if someone's witty, it means they are funny. "rapier wit" means a sharp sense of humor, or ability to think on one's feet.

 

A Wit is someone who always has an amusing response or retort.
