well i think it rude. cause even though we pronounce things differently, i feel like americans are much more polite about it, and we go out of our way to say that we like your accent and appreciate our differences. but i don't feel like british people appreciate our politeness.

I love the Southern American accent like Matthew McConnaughys :lovedup:

No

The fact Americans say sir and ma'am is greatly admired here. Politeness as always admired by Brits

i feel like some people just want to be against americans sometimes. i really do feel that way sometimes.


Wha...?

well that is nice to hear, but i don't think most brits ever say that to americans i don't think they ever say that they appreciate some of the things we do.

sometimes it just feels like all brits think of us all as george bush war mongers, and rednecks.

Its easy to fall for the stereotypes like the classic "americans dont get irony" when they make seinfeld, mash, curb, office usa, taxi etc

at least you are not french *shudder* or an australian *double shudder*

well australians also have their own special charm. i caN't defend the french (though maybe i could if i was on a train)

but thanks for saying you appreciate some aspects of american culture. i appreciate it.

why is there a debate about stereotypes in a thread about pronunciation
