They’ve got camps for that these days, check out ‘Pray the UK Away’.

My condolences

I have no issue with people being British either but I just don't agree with the lifestyle.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 months ago

Love the sinner, not the sin.

The Bible says Adam and Eve, not Adam in Southend-on-Sea.

But they did live in Eden, we've got a bunch of those.

I just don’t like the British lifestyle being forced down my throat. They even have an anthem and such. Why can’t they just be quietly British. I don’t rub my non-Britishness on them.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago (2 children)

They even have an anthem

You referring to Mr Brightside? Or do we have a new one yet?

My country, ‘tis of thee; sweet land of liberty, of thee I see.

Damn I miss the age of parody lyrics being the highest form of insult. We should go back to that. (Yes, fellow Americans, that song that literally all of us know is just a trolling parody of “god save the queen” and most people don’t know that which makes it even more funny.)

By that band from Las Vegas?

Our patron saint is from Turkey(ish), what's your point? We can steal culture as well as marbles you know.

Being Br*tish is an abomination, why can't they just be normal?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 months ago

You can swear on the internet. On second thought, maybe that one is best left censored

Do they really have to expose us to their lifestyle like that? How will I explain this to my kids

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nobody show this guy Taskmaster Junior.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

I'm so stoked to watch this. I loved Rose and Mike, and I'm so excited to have them back. They seem like perfect picks for their roles. Kids should make it extra goofy. I haven't been able to watch any TM for some months, so I'm going to have a lot to catch up on

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

Live your life but please don't do that in public for my kids to see

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

That's funny, I have the opposite opinion. Seems like it's something you should grow out of

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I can understand someone not wanting their kids to see the Scottish. But the English and the Welsh? Those people live SOUTH of the wall.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

The one made of corn? Doesn't sound very structurally sound

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

My spouse's parent was British but fortunately didn't raise them that way.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Perfect for gothic teens.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Just wait until you find out about pantomime Dames
