I aint British, I hate being called that, I'm Fukn English!!!
Yeah, well the country is the UK, not England. I mean, England is called a country, but you don't get English passports, you get British passports.

Can I ask a stupid Yank question?
What??s the difference between being British and English?
Well, Britain is a monarchy that includes England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Yeah, I get that part but If you??re from Scotland or Ireland you don??t say ??I??m British??.You would probably get a black eye if you called them British (wouldn??t you)
Well, nah I guess you wouldn't say you're British.. I dunno lol

I know what Great Brittan consists of and I know the English are from England?.but I have NEVER heard a Scotsman or Irishman say they were British. (I guess that??s what I??m getting at.)
I've heard Scottish and Welsh people call themselves British. Technically, they are British, but a lot of people like to think they aren't. To be honest, if I was Welsh I'd want to be British, not Welsh, just because Wales is so small.
I see so basicly it's just a pride thing.....thanks man.Quote:

in NORTHERN ireland you could either get praise from sayin your british or you cud get 7 colours of shit kicked outve you
if you arent familar with the situation here i cnt b assed explainin it
but im proud to be british :D
lol, i like the Irish accent, and not many people i know seem to like the Welsh (always called sheep shaggers and stuff like that lol) I personally don't have a problem with them (no offence to any Welsh people here for the sheep shagger comment, even though i didn't say it) :)
British = England, Nrth.Irish (some), Scots and Welsh.Quote:

OK, To be British u r from either NORTHERN Ireland - Northern Irish
Scotland - Scotish
England - English
Wales - Welsh
Now, Because we are all part of the United Kingdom we call ourselves British (Not United Kingdomish)
Here in Northern Ireland there are 2 religions - Catholics - Who say they are Irish. (they live in Northern Ireland because its better.)
Protestants - Who say they are British.
There are generally more Protestants in Northern Ireland than Catholics.
You get the minority who couldnt care less (Like me)
Now, In IRELAND (Completely different country to Northern Ireland. Its like Its like America Mexico.) They call themselves Irish. The reason you rarely hear a person in Ireland say they are british is because it would be like finding a person in France speaking French)
Ireland isnt part of the United Kingdom - 4 nations:
Northern ireland
England
Wales
Scotland.
Hope that helps.
yup, did any1 get anything from that? lol

lol so truthful and saying what you think, i'm sure it is better, NEVER hear anythin about Ireland, maybe cuz it isn't as good, like you said!
correct my amigo, Northern Ireland is the "Dogs Balls" as they say. Cleaner and friendlier.
[QUOTE=mellow mood]i guess I prefer stoned and proud.. lol
I'll smoke to that most of the people who live in Britain could not trace thier family history back more than a couple off hundred years
I can trace it back the Normans :)
