BUZZFEED VIDEO

[KirkjaGrobbi]

The funniest thing about this video is that Americans think we talk on the tube... The tube is a capsule of awkward energy, no one talks...

[Grodman]

Buzzfeed, where Great Britain means London.

I think people forget that if you're British you can be from places like Scotland and Wales and not just England :') And when some imitate a 'British accent' they tend to just do a cockney or upper class accent. But if you go to Birmingham or Glasgow, it's so different.

Candy - Sweets
Soda - We tend to just say the name of the 'soda' like pepsi or fanta
Chips - crisps
Fries - chips BUT our chips are fatter than fries and we also have Fries, so yeah...
Sidewalk - Path?
Block - street?
Juice - juice, like fresh orange juice or something

You have gogurts, we have frubes
You have those weird meat sticks, my minds gone blank, we have the same made of salami

We don't all play cricket, football (soccer) is our number one sport, followed by rugby.

You have axe, the deodorant, we have lynx (exactly the same)
I rarely drink tea and i never eat scones or whatever other shit is the current stereotype, its all about that curry, bolognase and pizza life.

Just to clarify i've been to Florida multiple times, I love it, i want to move to the US after University, but are the Americans in Florida only nice becaus most of them are also on holiday? Just curious.

We are both so competitive that we argue, its a shame.



Also thank you for Adventure Time <3

How come the title says Brits but the video is all about Londoners. Not all Brits live in London y'know.

[NakedZombiesOnSkates]

Go further north and Brits simply say exactly what they mean. 

[pawsycuddlesaj]

London: Could you move a lil' bit, please?
Essex: MOOOO-ve *elbows really hard*
Devon: Oi!! Would ya move your fokin' trackta for me, please? *sprays cow manure all over person who wouldn't move*
Scotland: Oi!! Mate, move ye fokin' arse!
Ireland: IF YOU DONT FUCKING MOVE IN THE NEXT 2 SECONDS YOUR GETTING A BLADE THROUGH YE FOKIN' CHEST!

Brits and londoners are not the same ... m8

[NotCallum]

hang on, he's in london and thinks wimbledon is 4 and a half hours away, what fucking route is he taking, it can take a max of 1 hour by car depending on what part of London you're in...

[zainahakim]

the hat-guy should've been swearing A LOT lol

[StephanieLorenG]

I wish I had a guy following me around to tell people what I actually mean without being rude.

[trevorwilliams]

This seems more like, what we, as humans, say and what we mean. From my experience, the only difference between a London Britt and any American is eventually, Londoners say what they really want. Rather than being passive aggressive or just throwing punches.

[MertsyUniverseGaming]

Fellow Britons, please, please, be butthurt not, for this video never claims that ALL of us speak like this.

BRITS AND LONDONERS ARE NOT THE SAME THING

[benJ]

don't be silly no one talk on the London underground its a unwritten rule
walk on sit down (where possible)
don't make eye contact (WITH ANYONE)
don't talk to anyone (ANYONE!!!!)
and if anyone talks to you simple shift your body in the other direction facing away from them
and for the love of god ignore tourists asking directions or seeking advice.

[lindagarthian]

I've noticed that in America everyone is free, confident and confront people a lot. In Britian. you keep you're mouth closed and secretly loathe the person you hate.
Also, OMG what is with the hoop earrings,  teenage mums and Primark!
I'm still proud to be British though but damn we aren't the best

[aztogunlende]
