people, liked, us, when, we, ruled, the, world, fuck, america

 

[Scratcher]

Of course, I'm English, and sadly the words 'chav' and 'knife-crime' may slip their way in as well.

Actually, knife crime's at an all time low in twenty years, but the papers wouln't want you believing that now, would they?

It may be the papers fault, but I've encountered a number of europeans who believe the UK's streets are awash with knife crime the way Chicago is with gun crime. I wouldn't say I make the connection myself, but at the same time, I've lived in plenty of areas where it is a regular occurence.

And Gilbert Munch, I was wondering if that list of 100 had any famous names instead of just words

 

[Yubadias]

Queen
Beatles
Tea
Bangers and Mash
Crumpets
Late Release Times
Limey

[El Poncho]

Big Red buses.

Top hats and canes.

A stereotyped accent.

Worship the queen.

The only people who worship the queen in this country are all over 70 years old. And why are 2 of your answers satire and then you throw in "a stereotyped accent"?

Now I can't tell if you're being serious or not!

Were we ment to be serious?

You won, but you didn't beat us. We just gave up and pissed off back to England.

10 words are pretty restrictive, so I'm going to say ten things.

1)The Queen
2)Tea
3)Football
4)Chavs
5)Cricket
6)Being very, very posh
7)Dry wit
8)Fish and Chips
9)The accent
10)A stiff upper lip

I think that sums up our little nation nicely.
