because we are biased parochial little englanders, the yanks are too polite to mention it, but were the same on all award shows, quiz shows and reality shows. we were obnoxious to vanilla ice on the farm too, he seemed a great guy. its nothing new. we are the same when we go to the mediterrancean on tour in gangs. we chant against the germans, we attack the scots, we called the welsh sheep shaggers, we fight the irish, call the aussies convicts and generally smash up the bars....theres areas of the med where they simply wont serve us beer, yet if you pretend youre from another country they will serve you and suddenly become friendlier. we are profoundly disliked across the continent.
