Why are the British such Rude Pompous Ass Holes to Americans?

OP you speak to how you politely did this and quietly did that but by your references regarding these people you desc ribe are really offensive and seem out of character for whom you are portraying as the offended parties(yourselves).

Let this be a lesson for you. You can stay home, be treated rudely, and save a lot of money.

When my Egyptian friends suggest I see Egypt I say no thanks I can get shot at at home...lol....

not jealous of america. i occasionally watch a hollywood movie, but i don't give a fuck about what goes on in the US. Why would I or any other European? we're happy as we are ...such an arrogant remark to think the world envies you. No one, but no one, could give a flying fuck about america or what goes on there.

Tooth envy. Chuck E Cheese teeth having mutha fuckas

Maybe they were "cunts" too you because you called them cunts.

What kind of tramps go to the Canary Islands anyway.

Maybe you saw yourself in the " rude, pompous, ugly fat British".

What is the matter, did they not bow to you twisted american views? Did they not respect you, did they not see you as the very self important person you are?

Knob.

Why do the Yanks need to be loved by everyone, then get upset when we people cannot stand your company.

I find Aussies, Kiwis, & Canadians very 'British' in their humour and general manner, whilst Americans are quite different, I have no idea why this would be though.

Americans can be great company and very funny, but as tourists can be quite inadvertently obnoxious. I took my fiance for dinner in a bistro in Rome last year, the bistro had a special room for couples to dine in candlelight which had to be pre-booked. An indulgent American dad had taken his very loud 18-20 year old daughter there, clearly at her request. She talked constantly and noisily, and whilst he had the cultural and social awareness to be visibly a little uncomfortable, she was utterly oblivious. I also had the 'oh you guys are British...' Interuption from an ajacent table in another restaurant. I did not have a real issue with this, and made polite conversation, but by the same token, it is not really the done thing in Europe.

I think there are two main pitfalls for Americans in Europe... Firstly, most Americans do not travel. It tends to be wealthier, more educated and more culturally aware Americans who come here. You expect to be treated as educated and cultured, but you need to give us time to adjust and realise for ourselves that you are, as this is very at odds with the America portrayed by American media broadcast here. You also need to accept that we have our own share of uncultured foul mouthed idiots too, and not imagine we all skip about sipping Espresso and reading Proust.

Secondly, do not attempt to hijack or co-opt our culture. Self proclaimed 'Italian Americans' and 'Irish Americans' and so forth are largely hilarious to many Europeans. I have Irish ancestry only 2 generations back on one side and Italian 3 generations back on the other, but would only ever claim to be English as that is where I was born and raised.

You are Americans. We all know you are Americans. So called 'Irish' Americans coming to London or Dublin and rattling on about the potato famine and so forth is utterly ridiculous. My best friend as a child had Irish parents but considers himself British as he was born and raised here. If I moved to Ireland and had children there, I would not try to make them feel any different to their friends or adopt an English accent or identity. In Europe, nationality is interchangeable within a generation or two. The American obsession with clinging to ancestral identities over multiple generations, when you no longer share any cultural similarity in reality is really quite odd.

The Irish, Scots, English, Italians etc... only indulge your fantasy of cultural attachment to our counties in order to extract your tourist dollar.

Ming, your wrong and you need to go back and brush up on your history and timelines.

The question is not why Brits are rude to Americans, the question is why do Americans allow these people into their Lounges and living rooms and allow them to dominate your entertainment industry with mishaps such as Piers Morgan and Simon Cowell etc. mutilating your music industry and entertainment industry.
I cannot watch a war documentary without hearing how Britain won the war and how brave and ingenious they were.
I am a South African living in New Zealand and my grandfather fought in that war to save these people from what was a foregone conclusion, the defeat of Britain. It galls me, and it must make Americans sick to their stomachs to hear these arrogant specimens proclaim their superiority while America gave it all to win the war for them.
Give me James Taylor, Boston, Bob Seger, give me anything but please release me from Simon Coward.
Feed them to the Reich!

I think pissing Rome off in the 4th century hasn't helped matters.. then consistently pissing them off ever since put the nail in that coffin.

Hey ho... In one way it is a shame that our relationship with the US is sliding down to zero.. but then again you illustrious leader is looking towards being BFF with Europe so at least you'll have a new BFF there :)

Given the US increasing ties to Europe it won't surprise anyone that the UKs relations with the US will fracture more as the UK moves away from Europe.

Got to admit that I find it interesting how we are portrayed in each others media (shaping how people think and respond to these types of threads).. breaking the friendship that existed between our two nations is paramount to make the leap to BFF with the EU.

Such a conspiracy to manipulate peoples views otherwise it would be impossible to explain why US media cut the segment that honours those who died in the London bombings, that is certainly not something an ally would do.. or why the US media has employed numpties like Morgan and Cowell.. Your media (and Hollywood) shows us as the face of evil planning and our media is just as bad showing you guys in a similar poor light.. fat/loud/preachy/warmongers, I'll always remember one scene in a British film where the lead actors says "the only thing worse than Dragons is an American"

There has to be a reason why each others media portrays the other as evil if not to server the bonds that have tied us for so long...

An interesting road lays ahead of us... I'm not sure how fun it is going to be to find out where this is all going.

Because Brits are a rude and arrogant race who have tried to invade every continent on earth. Fact.

The irony of your rant is lamentable im sorry you felt so horrible but calling brits snobbish is perpetrating a false stereotype and giving you the chip on the shoulder inferiority syndrome.The truth is a lot of Brits that go to Canary islands are working class drunken bums AND FOR GODS SAKE DONT TAKE YOURSELF SO DAMM SERIOUSLY DOES IT MATTER WHAT THE FUCK ANYBODY THINKS OF YOU RISE ABOVE IT FOR FUCKS SAKE IF I CAME TO AMERICA AND YOU ARROGANT TWATS GIVE ME GRIEF ID OUT-INTELLECTUALIZE YOU OR JUST FUCKIN GET ON WITH MY 49 POUND BURGER talking of which you call brits fat LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL kettle calling pot black .you sound like you felt isolated and hated and suffered an imaginary persecution complex if you had taken the time to see the GOOD IN HUMANITY instead of fixating on the self fulfilling stereotypical prophecyt that all brits are twats then you would have seen passed your rose coulered yanky glasses anyway have a drink on me and enjoy your fuckin self next time

yeah and you are amieable magnanimous courteous lords give me a fuckin break

I think everybody behaves that way towards Americans, you only notice the British because we speak the same language.

americans bite everytime without fail start a thread like 'are british the superior race' a thread penned sardonically by the way and they are like friggin flies round shit loool AMERICANS LEARN TO BANTER DONT TAKE IT SO FUCKIN SERIOUSLY LOOOOL

Should have done your homework Op. The British chavs go to the Canaries for their annual pissup because its cheap, they can manage it on benefits.

AND YOU SHEEP shaggers stay at home sniffing petrol because you cant afford to go anywhere

i dont think ive seen ONE uk vs usa thread yet where the americans have not taken a good shagging .

The Brits are just plain nasty class-driven psychopaths.

The Americans are just plain stupid and ignorant, while thinking they are superior and that the whole world owes them a favour.


Both are nations of fat TV-snacking retards, who together invade, rape and pillage other nations at will.


They are a tag-team of greed, violence and short-sightedness.


When either of your lot come to Australia, we think ALL of you are fat, rude, ignorant, lazy, loud and spoilt bastards who need to be tolerated while milked of tourist money.

Think the Brits are lovely people but then haven't been anywhere I didn't like most all the people.

We'd rather shag a good looking ewe than most of the fat smelly loud carcasses that pass themselves off as humans from the UK or USA.

Bullshit. Brits and all Euro-trash alike, ASSHOLES! Keep your fucking continent. I won't go there again and you all can stay the fuck out of here... and the Beatles suck(ed).



And your food sucks too.

Because, everybody knows, the English are "mean."

Strangest thing ever...when we traveled on the tube in London. We went down and it was so quiet we expected it to be empty...there were hundreds down there ... totally hushed. Very different from using US mass transits...rowdy, noisy places. And the Brits won on the rats in their underground also. LOL!

Overall I think Brits are very nice. They have more personal control imo.

I've found Spanish to be the most rude but each to their own.

And that makes you convicts such a gentile self effacing tolerant bunch? fuckin hell i wouldnt even dare throw stones from your glass house

errr what makes you think any civillised person with a modicum of foresight and sensibility would even contemplate coming to america? mm? If i need the toilet i just go upstairs

Well I ate out at a very nice michelin star resturant tonight.. What did you have...

& God yes the beatles sucked ass... but you clowns lapped them up..

ffs rofl you got yourself a persecution complex you dickhead i was replying to a new zealander not you you dipstick

I feel all smug and self congratulatory for posting this;oh im such a twat tee hee

on the state of dental hygiene in developed countries has concluded that the British have the very best teeth in the entire world, with an average of just 0.6 of a tooth decaying per citizen. Not just "not the worst"--the absolute fucking best!
