Top 10 Things that Make Britain Better Than America
Dry, witty, intelligent, sarcastic, clever, and subtle. Yes, British humor is better!
I'm just not myself without my sarcasm - it (along with my passport) makes me British.
I agree. Britain has had kings and queens, Romans, Saxons - the lot. But in America, it's mostly presidents and such, and that didn't happen for ages, so I'm agreeing with Britain.
The thing is, the real history of America is British history (unless you are a descendant of a Native American).
Despite the fact that my favorite comedy is The Big Bang Theory (American), and that the US also has Frasier and Friends, Britain has Red Dwarf, Blackadder, Fawlty Towers, Only Fools and Horses, Mr. Bean, Black Books, Dad's Army, and The Good Life, all of which are just brilliant. Red Dwarf and Blackadder are second only to The Big Bang Theory.
With comedies like The IT Crowd, One Foot in the Grave, Blackadder, and oh so many others, how can one disagree?
It's disgusting and wrong to take a life. If we kill a murderer, then aren't we just as bad?
I love tea! But why do Americans make it cold? If our tea's cold, we'd go and make another one!
Who said anything about being posh? The actual accent is better on the ears (but a well-spoken London accent is always best).
I love people who have British or Australian accents. I wish I had that accent too.
The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones, Queen, Iron Maiden - and so many more. Let's see how many good American bands there are.
Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Nirvana, AC/DC, Aerosmith.
Pretty much it. There are some good bands like Green Day, Linkin Park, Three Days Grace, Skillet, etc., but these are the only great ones.
Which country brought Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, Carrie Underwood, Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, Jessica Simpson, Jonas Brothers, et al., to the world? Hint: it's NOT Britain! On another note, Mr. Blobby is like Mozart compared to these people.
The Newcomers
I have learned why Americans are loud. They don't like quietness.
This I agree with. I went to America and was shocked by how few people said excuse me, pardon me, sorry, or thank you. No one showed any sign of gratitude for something I had gone out of my way to do for them.
This should be first. Americans do not have the same level of politeness as the British. I'm from the East and really appreciate politeness.
Brits and Japanese people are the most gentle and polite people I have met. I love them.
I am American, and I really want to move from Pennsylvania to London. I like Pennsylvania and America, but I like London more. I've never been there before.
Britain doesn't have a city like Honolulu (Hawaii), but Britain does have a working public transportation system in the vast majority of its cities.
I am American, but I think that London is better than any city in the USA.
The fashion in Britain is no different from the fashion in America.
Britain has the 6th best education system in the world, beating America!
Plus, there's less gun crime and knife crime because we allow neither. We're just 100 times safer.
I am so glad I'm British, so I don't have to deal with Trump and his racist, sexist remarks!
I blame the psychotic need American parents feel to willingly butcher their boys via circumcision. Do you have ANY idea how much sensitivity is lost because of that procedure? Or how much of the sexual experience is diminished for women during sex? No, of course, you don't. All you have is a scarred, mutilated member that can't even properly self-lubricate and is partially desensitized. No parent who actually loves their child would allow them to be mutilated in such a manner.
That's why the best sex an American woman has is with an uncircumcised man (unless she's not inclined toward male sexual partnership. To which I say, each to their own, respectfully). You guys should thank John Harvey Kellogg for pushing circumcision to prevent masturbation, thus keeping pious people "on the right path, the path to the Lord!" Idiots still butcher their kids even now when there's NO GOOD REASON FOR IT! (Since the invention of bathing, hygiene isn't even an argument.)
It was once better leadership until the government came. Either Tory or Labour.
What smart, rational person would admire Joel Osteen, Billy Graham, Pat Robertson, or Fred Phelps?
I love the British flag and the Australian flag. I have the British flag as my mobile wallpaper, and I'm not even British!
I love the Union Jack. Though there are plenty of other great flags out there, I think it has to be one of the best.
The Union flag is the best in the world and definitely the best looking.
