brits
my friends cousin came down this week from manchester. he was really cool and i want to learn more about england cause i'm going to try to go to college in liverpool. i learned some new things like if someone is being an idiot you call him a prat. if someone is being stupid you call them a muppet. bloody isn't bad of a word and its only disrespectful. they don't like the french. they don't have english donuts in england. by the way... what do you call that area? england, britain, or the UK? the UK has more that england in it but its pretty close. what is that old english tv show that has animation like bob the builder? something about a mail man. "pat man [blank] and his black and white cat... early in the moring, before the day is dawning..." thats all of the theme song i can remember.

postman pat. be safe, and call it britian.
yaa postman pat. never saw it but i've heard good things. catchy theme song.
yeah if someone is from england wales or scotland they are british (and english, welsh and schottish in respectively in their own right).
I live in liverpool so id be glad to give you a guided tour/info/the low down etc, i mean i could also teach you the lingo (as how they speak in manc land is quite different to how we speak in liverpool). Oh and a word of warning there is a mutual hatred between both cities, mostly down to the rival footie teams but dont mess with it!!
For example if someone is an idiot they are a "meff", if something is horrible it is "mingin", if its really good its "boss" or "ace", and its "me" not my, "yous" means you lot etc and "cum 'ead" means come on, hurry up etc. Oh and people from liverpool are called scousers!
i thought someone from liverpool was a liverpudlian, though anyplace that produces 4 beatles should be called heaven.
Amen to that... ha ha! I found 2 Beatle documentary DVDs at the OTHER heave (Wal*Mart) for $5.88!!!! It was one package with 2 DVDs! Yeah Yeah Yeah! Tomorrow night we go to Reno Nevada to see a tribute band called Rain do a show. Report to follow!
i got a beatle doc dvd that was immense crap. it had fake songs that were supposed to sound like the real songs. the only ppl to buy a beatles doc is a fan. and like a fan wouldn't be able to tell what is counterfeit. it was a slap in the face, i couldn't watch the whole thing. when i get rich from cleaning teeth, i am going to buy the beatles anthology on dvd.
the school is in lancashire not liverpool. university of central lancashire to be exact. thats my bad(or me bad). i'm leaning towards forensics but like i said i got three years to graduate. it would be cool if you could teach me the lingo, low down, etc, but i'm not a jw. will that be a problem?
how did you find this site then? and how did you realize we were all witnesses?
i am jolly candy man's friend from school. this is my only connection to him now because he gets home schooled. i just kept on coming here and liked the people i guess.
hahahha that's pretty funny. i hung out with jolly candy man once in the city...we had good times...i must go visit him.
me and matt opanowitz, and 12 other people are going to South Dakota to teach the people out there about the Bible and to see Yellowstone and some other awesome things out there. We'll be going for the last 2 weeks of August, I can't WAIT!
i love him. he cracks me up whenever i'm around him. like instead of breakdancing, goes in the middle of a circle and does push-ups. or mocking certain nephlims down camping. that was hysterical.
Lancashire. Go there if you wanna see bulls in antique shoppes. Literally.
so lancashire is a cool place? where is it to liverpool or london.
it's in the north, i believe. i'm too lazy to check.
its like an hour north of liverpool (about 7 hours north of london!) im at the university of Lancaster cept im not at the central campus im at one in ormskirk (about half an hours drive away south) im in my final year starting in sept so you never know we may bump into each other!!
To find out about just about anywhere in the whole of England pretty much, I think, you type the URL like so www.thisis_____(replace the blank w/ the locale).com ...for example, to find out about Lancashire you'd point your browser to http://www.thisislancashire.co.uk ..London's Web site would be http://www.thisislondon.co.uk(altho, http://www.londontown.com is a very good one, too), and so on. I believe this scheme only works for counties tho, so that's why you wouldn't be able to apply it to Liverpool. There's no "This Is Liverpool" Web site. However, if you did, say http://www.thisisoxford.co.uk ..it'd kindly redirect you to the "This is Oxfordshire" Web site. But, experiment with different places; it's quite nifty.
all of that stuff is pretty cool. i hope i can at least go to manc or at least europe. sadly enough i never left pennsylvania. i have 3 more years pf high school left before i graduate so i won't be going to college for a while. do you guys hate it when americans say "have a nice day?" my english friend told me that.
A wordly English family that was more American-culturely aware than you could ever want, told our family, whilst shooting our picture (so our whole family could get in the shot. And they offered to take it. How thoughtful.) in Epcot this past February, that saying "have a nice day" is like wishing bad luck upon somebody. We held back our laughing.. until they started to laugh themselves, so then we of course joined in anyway afterall. But, didn't say "have a nice day" on the second chance at a goodbye.
well my english friend said that people in england get annoyed when americans say "have a nice day" bescause the english aren't as "happy" and "chipper" as americans. he means it the way the mcdonalds reject uses it after you order your meal.
hahha that is true. we are more friendly. although don't be fool, all brits are excited to talk to any american, and will make up ANY lame excuse to try and talk to you (they are secretly hoping you will offer them a place to stay when they visit. say NO.)
ya but every time i said "have a nice day" in a friendly tone to my friend he would get mad. but he was agrier when i started to sing an avril levine song but i think that is because she is french.
yea... walk around the nightlife... they love coming up to americans and sharing slang.. or just weirdos
it is exactly the same when brits come to the states, theyre all "Oh arent you so cute, hey everyone in the entire town come listen to this cute english girl - go on, speak....speak....jump through a hoop, catch the bone yada yada" :P
hahahahahah i love to do that to british epople as payback ...just havin a laff at your expense, really
oh yeah thats right it was you, he organised a whole town show with me as the main attraction, like a freak show at a circus except i had to do everything else too, like run around with huge baggie pants on, make the kids laugh, do acrobatics and ride a frickin uni cycle - yeah Dan i never said thanks for that did i!!!
i...can not remember this. i'm sorry. i hope you have video footage, though.
you know what's amazing? when british people do american accents out of the blue. I love that. or when black comics talk like white people. love it.
how about when i pretend to like weezer, just to be like everyone else??
Kate Winslet does real good American accents. Like I mean, she can even do region-specific American accents. It's amazing!
ninestar...that isn't that impressive...come on...any normal american can do regional british accents...scottish vs. irish vs. cockneys...i'm not that impressed.
Nobody listen to nine9star.. shes not from eruope... shes my next door neighbor...
Wow..that's really far from Europe. You live in West-gibib

Anyway i did the stuff so you'd keep schtum, i have no idea why you did all that weird stuff - i just came to the conclusion you were deranged!!!
