The anticipation of waiting for the kettle to boil was almost too much.

Woah, what's with the negativity? Fuck it, I do like this country.

4-Butchers leaving their trucks open (FUKIN STINKS BRUV)
5-People pissing in your pocket on the tube!

[GoGo Ball]

What's bad about Britain?

THE 'ENGLISH'.

LoL, LoL, LoL

[LOVElife]

OH listen to this^, You must be gutted you are living somewhere still stuck in the Dark Ages! Irelands not so bad really, but I would hate to be from Scotland or Wales!

They wish they were English, or that they had the same lifestyle as the English, But its Dying a sorry death in them countrys.

[GoGo Ball]

I shouldn't have said anything,

I could see old religious, political and territorial rivalries surfacing.

By the way Ireland is a very prosperous country and rich with a higher GDP than all of Europe, yet it still has the old charm of community about it,

I'm from Northern Ireland and watch British television. I see Britain getting worse by-the-day. It is no joke, happy slapping and all that.

Yea I can understand that but im probably just used to A busy City! It's just these games you persist on playing, HAY THROWING OR PIG CHASING,(i dunno what there called), and the Welsh and Sweats hate us, but we dont care about them!

[Looker]

ALEXEI SAYLE 4EVER

FROM LEFT TO RIGHT

ALEXEI SAYLE, PETE TOWNSEND, LORD MOUNTBATTEN, MARTY FELDMAN, or ,as marty would say: "Maw'y Fewdman"

[GoGo Ball]

At least the Brits and the Irish vote for each other in the Euro Vision Song Contest, otherwise sometimes we would have Nil-Poa.

The Continent is full of the Cheeky Girls, Aqua, Eurotrash and transvestites (the Euro Vision winner and Portuguese Nadia).

We can all at least agree we hate the 'Frogs'.

[stanepoke]

I would hate to be from Scotland or Wales!

They wish they were English,

What a load of pish!!

Never once wished I was English, maybe wished I lived further away from some of them tho.

Most irritating things in Britain:

- The level of tax. (73pence from every £1.00 spent on petrol goes to the government)
- The price of housing (Yes, its expensive here as well)
- Crap TV (unless you have sky, then its just more channels of crap)

[LOVElife]

And nobody likes the Germans, Even if you have never met one, just the fact they are German is enough to put you off!!

Oh and all Jocks think they are William Wallace!

[GoGo Ball]

It's just these games you persist on playing, HAY THROWING OR PIG CHASING

That is a total cliché if I ever heard one and not at all true of Ireland, Scotland yes!

I think it is better raising your kids to have interests in hay and pigs, other than your kids snapping themselves slapping a complete stranger, old, young, male, female they make no distinction, and having a laugh abut it.

[stanepoke]

That is a total cliché if I ever heard one and not at all true of Ireland, Scotland yes!

Whats the fuck is this The Flame Scotland Thread??

FFS everyone knows that were more into caber tossing and haggis chasing. Daft bastards!!! PMSL

[GoGo Ball]

Scotland is one of the most beautiful countries I have ever seen;

Trees, Lakes, Mountains, Caves, Beachs, Cliffs,

With some of the most awe inspiring architecture in the world, Edinburgh is a beautiful city with the Castle overlooking.

It is a pity though that with all you have the country is riddled with drugs.

[hippy lettuce]

[Button Basher]

You know next-generation Britain will be a blast with todays youngsters. Lots of young murderers coming about recently.

It would seem babys are the new tamagotchi amongst the British youth these days too.

[GHoSToKeR]

Sadly, Button Basher, I agree... though I don't think England or Britain or the UK is degenerating any faster or slower then the rest of the world - we just notice it more because we live here.

Anyway, why don't you all shut the fuck up and stop being so fucking nationalistic? :D :)

[MisstreeNny]

I don't know if this was already mentioned but I don't get british sense of humor. I never get their sitcoms.

[Kombucha]

Not necessarily in order...

1. Jamster

2. Chavs

3. Obsession with celebrities

4. Obsession with football

5. Worst food

6. Worst music

7. Worst TV

8. Tabloid newspapers

9. Jordan

10. Ugliest prime minister

6. Really boring, uneventful political system :D

Not that I could live anywhere else :cool: . Just bored!

Argh! You've got it all wrong!

I agree with a lot of it, but this is where I disagree:

Worst food: Nah, not quite. We've got some good stuff. Yorkshire puddings. Gravy...

Worst music: We have some bad pop music, yeah, but also some damn good music. Muse, Placebo, Kasabian, Kaiser Chiefs... remember the Beatles? We have one of the best, if not the best music industry in the world.

Worst TV: That's not true at all. As with music, there's some bad stuff, but look around the rest of the world... have you seen Japanese TV?? American TV isn't much better. We have some quality programmes.

Lousy Police: I think we've got very good police. They don't think they're some kind of elite crime-fighting squad like they do in some other countries where they all see themselves as some kind of John McClane-ish hero, and they are well trained enough to handle situations without drawing guns on people.

[Kombucha]

You know next-generation Britain will be a blast with todays youngsters. Lots of young murderers coming about recently.

It would seem babys are the new tamagotchi amongst the British youth these days too.

Yep, that's very well put. 15 year olds get pregnant, not by accident, but because they "really want a baby." Then they do it again a few months later because they realise it's easy making their own mother look after their baby, and they get bored of the first one. And no one complains. Doctors don't say "you're fifteen, why the fuck are you pregnant," they say "aah poor you, it must be hard. You're a real hero."

It just fits in with my theory that chavs are just humans that run on pure instinct. Once females get old enough, their hormones kick in and it's time to have a baby! Of course, the males have no objection, they get to do what comes naturally to them too - spread their genes everywhere.
It's pretty much the same way that all animals behave.


Scotland is one of the most beautiful countries I have ever seen;

Trees, Lakes, Mountains, Caves, Beachs, Cliffs,

With some of the most awe inspiring architecture in the world, Edinburgh is a beautiful city with the Castle overlooking.

Yeah, damned drugs. What kind of loser uses them anyway?

[Button Basher]

Worst food: Nah, not quite. We've got some good stuff. Yorkshire puddings. Gravy...

Yeah, I guess we're not that bad when it comes to munch.


Worst music: We have some bad pop music, yeah, but also some damn good music. Muse, Placebo, Kasabian, Kaiser Chiefs... remember the Beatles? We have one of the best, if not the best music industry in the world.

Beatles yes, but i'm talking about NOW. That's the thing, pop music (ie. music for the public) dominates the industry and it's all just SO FUCKING BAD :eek: .
The definition of good music nowadays is anything succesfully manufactured to the point it looks like an ounce of talent was involved in it's creation. Muse, etc are all acquired tastes. Think of Dizzee Rascal, Girls Aloud, the mother-fucking crazy frog, it's a joke, music is dead. There are no music legends, only celebrities, and they're only ever in the paper for having an operation or getting pregnant. :mad:

Then again, I guess that's also the case in America. Oh well... Girls Aloud :eek:!


Worst TV: That's not true at all. As with music, there's some bad stuff, but look around the rest of the world... have you seen Japanese TV?? American TV isn't much better. We have some quality programmes.

Well, maybe we don't have THE worst TV, but our TV is still crap. What can I say, I was in a negative mood and scrolled through everything I hate about our lovely country. I should cut us some slack, I compared the humour in Friends with British comedies such as The Office and Fawlty Towers and it was like comedy for the mentally handicapped. Not too complicated now, their heads might explode :D .


Lousy Police: I think we've got very good police. They don't think they're some kind of elite crime-fighting squad like they do in some other countries where they all see themselves as some kind of John McClane-ish hero, and they are well trained enough to handle situations without drawing guns on people.

Gonna have to stick to my guns here. Police in every area of Britain i've ever lived in have been fucking useless. You just never, EVER see them anywhere, and when you do there's 7 of them crowded around some timid pakistani bloke. :mad: BOLLOCKS!! Just my opinion from experience mind.

Sorry if I offended anyone just then, it's late and i'm tired with too much unburnt energy :p !

[Funken Monken]

Got another one:

The ability to spot great musical talent and nurture it, even though an artists home country just cannot see it. Case in point; Jimi Hendrix

[mellow mood]

yes there are many good musicians that existed or that still exist in Britain

The clash
jimi hendrix
beatles

and more (i dont like the beatles but still..)

[robert42]

1 - crack

[Kombucha]

The British music industry is still, as I said, one of the best, if not the best. There are so many new and talented bands coming from Britain these days.

[Az.]

the english accent is one of the most annoying accents ive ever heard

[Kombucha]

the english accent is one of the most annoying accents ive ever heard

Lol... where are you from? There's no such think as an "English accent." It's like saying "American accent," there's so many different kinds.

If you mean the kind of "English" accent you get on TV, I understand, but it's not real.

[GTC21]

Americans think all British people speak like Queen Elizabeth, really posh. If they heard me speak they wouldn't know where the hell I was from lol. Britain has got a lot of different accents especially for the size of it. They are so different-

London (cockney)
Scottish
Welsh
Birmingham (Brummy)
Liverpool (scouse)
Yorkshire
Newcastle (geordie)

And many others which I've probably never even heard of.

So Az, which accent is it that annoys you?

[BUZz UK]

London (cockney)

lol, not quite mate, only east londoners

[GTC21]

Oops, sorry :o :o :o

[Az.]

London (cockney)
Scottish
Welsh
Birmingham (Brummy)
Liverpool (scouse)
Yorkshire
Newcastle (geordie)


So Az, which accent is it that annoys you?
the cockney accent annoys me the most....but yeah its mostly all the accents on tv that make me shudder....eastenders, emerdale etc....lol

ROTFLMFAO!!!!!!


Nice one mate. but btw, the libertines are shite!

[Cheery Cherry]

Well, I used to live in England for two years when I was 12 - 14 years old. I miss England, although I used to get my ass kicked for being "different", but not too often...I dealt with it. The only thing I don't miss is the TV shows (nothing was on)!!!!

[Hydrizzle]

the worst thing to come out of britain: America
:p :p :p :p :p


WHY

[GoGo Ball]

Evangelists and Neo-Conservatives

[Kombucha]

WHY

Like it or not, America is probably the least liked country in the world. We are all united by a universal contempt for America.

[Button Basher]

Like it or not, America is probably the least liked country in the world. We are all united by a universal contempt for America.

Very true, but i've found myself sticking up for Americans quite a lot recently.
You've just got to remember that in every Torog and Amsterdam there's a Pisshead trying to get out. :D

[RIP ODB]

On a side note, I love chicks with british accents. It's so sexy... I mean just think about Elizabeth Hurley for a second.

Think.

Stunning, isnt she??

She's all right. It's not like there's a shortage of English accents around here though.

My friend says "Russian I can understand..." Apparently he likes Eastern European accents in general (all the prostitutes are from Poland.)
