Being English in America has a sucky side

[MikeFlynn74]

Dude being in the military- Everyone has a 3rd cousins brothers friend who had joined in a different branch. Do you know that guy? UGH

Wow, I read LGI's quote in DB's sig before I saw the original post.

Trippy, in a zen-ish time-warpy kind way...

I wonder if they practice time travel in England or they dress that way on purpose?

What's your favorite Public House.. Smith or Fullers?

Gales of Horndean......From what I gather, they have been bought out by Fuller's who have done a good job of retaining the original style......So, based on hearsay, I will go with Fuller's until I know better from experience.

And don't forget, you have to buy anything made of cotton a bit large as it will shrink in the dryer.

Seriously - Where did the term limey come from?

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

Seriously - Where did the term limey come from?

Sailors taking limes on board to prevent scurvey

So, that pretty much sucks as an insult.

 

[arturo7]

Seriously - Where did the term limey come from?

British sailors sucking citrus fruit to prevent scurvy.



edit: I shoulda figured the lemony bastidge would be me to the punch.

 

[Schlenkerla]

Every time I go to Meheco I start looking like a limey!

Urban Dictionary: limey

A better insult would be Queen loving, Hugh Grant shagging wishy washy pasty faced Mother lover......But I never told you that.

British/French..... Whats the diff? Arent you all the same?

 

[DeathBrewer]

Why do you hate the Queen so much?

 

[Schlenkerla]

No, no, no. The french are cheese-eating surrender monkeys.

[vtchuck]

Do you mind the gap?

No, no, no. The french are cheese-eating surrender monkeys.

How quickly everyone forgets about Napoleon!

How quickly everyone forgets about Napoleon!

It's easy to forget about someone when you can't see him without looking down.








get it, heh....heh....






he was short right?

 

[Schlenkerla]

How quickly everyone forgets about Napoleon!

The french hasn't had an army that kicked butt since then. They might have one but we'd never know that.

LGI's homeboys are one of the few that are helping us out overseas. :rockin:

Where'd that little f**ker go? It's been like an hour since he posted in his own thread.

quite odd

Probably like the rest of us his workday is done and time to go home. Rough job.

No. He's sucking down a pint right about now if he's not doing the drive home.

 

[Neunelfer]

No. He'sw sucking down a pint right about now if he's not doing the drive home.

That's a really good idea.

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

Had a little 2 hour nap. WTF Mike Flynn? Why so much unlove? Trying to figure out what I did here?

 

[Schlenkerla]

Taking a siesta? Didn't you do that at tea time?

 

[homebrewer_99]

Did you ever shag Austin Powers?

Did you ever shag Benny Hill?

 

[homebrewer_99]

How quickly everyone forgets about Napoleon!

...yeah, until they're eating strawberry, vanilla and chocolate ice cream...

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

Did you ever shag Benny Hill?

Didn't everyone?

That's funny, I could have sworn it was for the Corona's...

 

[homebrewer_99]

Didn't everyone?

I know I missed that party...maybe Freddie Mercury made it?

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

That's funny, I could have sworn it was for the Corona's...

OK....It's official, the insults have gone far enough. I can take the bad teeth stuff, I could have taken the Queen shagger stuff if it had arisen....but Corona drinkers? You, sir, have crossed the fugging line!!!

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

I adored Freddie. Anyone that flamingly everything is OK in my book.

 

[HBHoss]

Do you keep spanners under your bonnet? Or is that in the boot?

OK - Here's a softball. Why are bitters called a bitter?

Go on, I'm all ears.

This isn't a trick question. Just wondered if you know. I don't, but I could guess the obvious. Its not that simple is it????

It is.

 

[Schlenkerla]

I didn't see any line....are you sure? Maybe the limes were used before IPA's???

Yes, but you live in Ohio. People from New Jersey are considered "exotic" there.

PS: They shouldn't give US passports to people who can't spell "color" correctly

Hey now, just cause you yanks butcher the language.....


I met the queen when I was 11. I gave her flowers. I was basically forced into it by my Mom. Her security looked ready to tackle me but she waved them away (the queen, not my Mom). My mom has a pic. It's hilarious. I'm wearing gumboots!

This was in Nanaimo BC, Canada

Our whacky neighbor was dressed up in gear from the 17th century. I think she thought he was nuts, or perhaps her illegitimate son.

I hate royalty. What have they done for me? I mean, I gave her flowers. What the hell did I get out of it?

Don't get me started on the "Governor General" thing..

Yes, but you live in Ohio. People from New Jersey are considered "exotic" there.

If you are from a small blue collar town in SW Ohio, people from Indiana (20 miles away) are like aliens.
