'In England' 'It's an English thing' etc

[Josy]

James always says 'In England' 'It's an English thing' etc

He has said these and other similar things a massive amount of times since the beginning and I thought it was just Gary he said that to because he was American but last night during the feedback task he done the same thing with Audley and I was thinking wtf? :huh:

So then I was thinking why does he keep doing/saying that and thought maybe it's a habit because of his wife? she is from Poland and he said he had to learn her the English language etc when they just met so maybe it's a habit from home? :shrug:

If that is a habit he uses with his wife I feel very sorry for her because it sounds so patronising.

Maybe he should say "it's a James thing":hehe:

Yes, that could well be the reason, its even funnier, because in terms of traditional "English" behaviour, there is no one more English than Audley as he lives by the typical associated values. So why was he using that on Audley.

I think James uses that when he can't or doesn't want to explain his own idiosyncratic behaviour, which is not typically English at all.

I hate it! Its patronising but also makes us Brits look like prudes.

Gary seems to think all "English" people are like James.

As someone from the south of England I thank you for your kind, generalising words.

He's a limited-uneducated pr!ck- with skewed social morals.


In Bully's world it's his truth. I really do pity the lovely Ola. She probably knows no better.

Make no wonder she looks like she's fallen for every celebrity she partners.

You do realise than in your attempt to defend Gary.. you're being the exact same thing that you're accusing everyone else of being right?
Although i do agree, Wales is awesome.. the south though, it's all about the South. :hehe:
