Yeah my parents forced being British on me when I was growing up

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 55 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They’ve got camps for that these days, check out ‘Pray the UK Away’.

[–] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 79 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have no issue with people being British either but I just don't agree with the lifestyle.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Love the sinner, not the sin.

The Bible says Adam and Eve, not Adam in Southend-on-Sea.

[–] BluesF@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

But they did live in Eden, we've got a bunch of those.

[–] assassinatedbyCIA@lemmy.world 53 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I just don’t like the British lifestyle being forced down my throat. They even have an anthem and such. Why can’t they just be quietly British. I don’t rub my non-Britishness on them.

[–] Aksamit@slrpnk.net 20 points 1 year ago (2 children)

They even have an anthem

You referring to Mr Brightside? Or do we have a new one yet?

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

My country, ‘tis of thee; sweet land of liberty, of thee I see.

Damn I miss the age of parody lyrics being the highest form of insult. We should go back to that. (Yes, fellow Americans, that song that literally all of us know is just a trolling parody of “god save the queen” and most people don’t know that which makes it even more funny.)

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

By that band from Las Vegas?

[–] TroublesomeTalker@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago

Our patron saint is from Turkey(ish), what's your point? We can steal culture as well as marbles you know.

[–] Aksamit@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pretty sure thry were mormons too.

[–] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Biggest Christian rock group.

[–] Aksamit@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 year ago

Fucking mental considering how British their music sounded.

[–] lengau@midwest.social 1 points 1 year ago

I don’t rub my non-Britishness on them.

Americans cannot relate to this.

[–] Rusty@lemmy.ca 36 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Being Br*tish is an abomination, why can't they just be normal?

[–] Biskii@lemmy.dbzer0.com 22 points 1 year ago

You can swear on the internet. On second thought, maybe that one is best left censored

[–] uhhhhh@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago (2 children)

🎵 He'll save children, but not the British children 🎵

When I worked at a movie theater, I had a customer refund their tickets because of the actors with British accents

Live your life but please don't do that in public for my kids to see

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nobody show this guy Taskmaster Junior.

[–] Biskii@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago

I'm so stoked to watch this. I loved Rose and Mike, and I'm so excited to have them back. They seem like perfect picks for their roles. Kids should make it extra goofy. I haven't been able to watch any TM for some months, so I'm going to have a lot to catch up on

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago

Goddamn Peppa Pig is indoctrinating our youth!

[–] synae@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 1 year ago

That's funny, I have the opposite opinion. Seems like it's something you should grow out of

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

[–] el_abuelo@programming.dev 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can understand someone not wanting their kids to see the Scottish. But the English and the Welsh? Those people live SOUTH of the wall.

[–] Owljfien@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

The one made of corn? Doesn't sound very structurally sound

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

My spouse's parent was British but fortunately didn't raise them that way.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Perfect for gothic teens.

[–] ReiRose@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Just wait until you find out about pantomime Dames
