    How long before we start threatening England?

      As a born-and-raised American who recently got UK citizenship, I would like to say: you filthy Yankee colonials try it and we’ll show you what we did to the bloody Bosh at the Battle of the Somme, what what!

        Squid, you’re welcome here in the UK, but … er … don’t do that.

        Flashbacks of the time I, a northerner, tried to do a “Landan” accent that time I visited London. In retrospect I’m lucky all I got was a “what are you doing?”

          I mean the whole point was me being an ignorant American…

            Ah. I see. Being stupid on purpose, in parody or otherwise, sometimes doesn’t go over all that well either.

            I have made that mistake before, and will probably make it again at some point.

              A large number of standup comedians and sitcoms would suggest otherwise.
